What’s New For

2015?2015 is set to be an exciting year, with new ship launches, innovative onboard features and new itineraries to look forward to. Cruising fans may be aware of many of these already, but if you’re new to cruising or simply haven’t caught up on the latest gossip, here’s a run-down of some of the most exciting cruising news for the next 12 months…

March 2015 sees the launch of P&O Cruises’

new ship Britannia – the biggest ship built

for the British cruise market. Offering

a sophisticated, contemporary holiday

experience across health & beauty, shopping

and entertainment, with a strong focus on

dining, Britannia also features a bold new

livery in the form of the world’s largest

contemporary version of the Union jack!

Special features include The Cookery Club,

a 24 person state-of-the-art cookery school

developed in association with James Martin;

a three-tier feature atrium with Eric Lanlard

patisserie, a charcuterie and gelateria as well

as spectacular Star Burst sculpture; Sindhu

restaurant by Atul Kochhar and Olly Smith’s

The Glass House; gala menus created by

Marco Pierre White; plus The Limelight Club,

a combined entertainment and dining venue

in the great tradition of the supper club.

See page 24 for a choice of Britannia

sailings for 2015.

Britannia rules the Waves

Cruise & Maritime Voyages (CMV) has

announced the addition of ‘Grand Holiday’

from Costa Crociere to the CMV fleet in

Spring 2015. The ship will be renamed

Magellan and will become the proud new

flagship of the current four-strong fleet,

carrying 1250 passengers. Combining

expansive, comfortable surroundings and

friendly service with stylish entertainment

and delicious cuisine, Magellan is the perfect

choice for those looking for a greater range

of on board facilities. Exclusively for adults,

its maiden voyage will be a 12 night cruise to

Iceland and the Faroes for the Solar Eclipse

and Northern Lights, sailing from London

Tilbury in March 2015.

New Flagship for Cruise & Maritime Voyages

Fred. Olsen Cruise Line’s two largest

ships, Balmoral and Braemar, have just

undergone refurbishment in Germany

and have been fitted with Fred. Olsen’s

popular ‘Café Venus’. Following on from

Boudicca and Black Watch which already

feature the onboard cafés, passengers

on board the newly renovated ships will

now be able to enjoy high-quality coffee

and luxury chocolates. On Balmoral, the

new Café will be created on Lounge Deck

7, while on Braemar, Café Venus will be

installed on Lounge Deck 5.

Café Venus for Balmoral & Braemar

Tauck has welcomed a new riverboat to

its fleet, ms Esprit, which will join the rest

of its Jewel Class vessels in 2015 – cruising

the Rhine, Danube and Moselle rivers.

AmaWaterways’ new ships AmaSerena

and AmaVista will begin their maiden

voyages in Spring 2015 and feature the

company’s first family-friendly cabins with

connecting doors and new tapas menus

in the lounge.

Two new suite ships from Avalon Waterways will be launching in March

2015 and will have two decks of cabins

with wall-to-wall glass doors that open

two-thirds the width of the room to create

inside balconies.

This year, Riviera Travel are continuing

with a literary theme with its next two

river cruise boats and launching Jane

Austen (May) and Charles Dickens (July).

Both hold 140 passengers and have spa

rooms with sauna/steam room facilities

and hair salons.

River Cruise News Oceania’s parent company recently

announced that they are set to buy the

Ocean Princess from Princess Cruises.

The 15 year old vessel, due to be transferred

over in March 2016, will be renamed Sirena

and become a sister ship to Oceania’s

three ‘R’ Class ships, Insignia, Regatta and

Nautica. Upon joining the fleet, Sirena is

set to undergo a massive 35-day overhaul

and reservations for her maiden voyage are

set to open in March this year. If Oceania’s

current ships are anything to go by, the

Sirena is going to be a stunner and we can’t

wait to see how she turns out!

Ocean Princess on its way to Oceania Cruises

Anthem of the Seas is the brand new ship

from Royal Caribbean International, and

will be sailing from Southampton from

April 2015. With 15 decks featuring the next

generation of spectacular suites, staterooms

and lofts, new “firsts at sea” like the North

StarSM capsule, Two70SM, RipCord by iFly®

and SeaPlexSM plus Royal favourites like

FlowRider®, the Rock Wall and the VitalitySM

at Sea Spa & Fitness Centre—this truly is

quantum physics at its finest!

Situated at the top of the Adriatic, Venice

and its islands were created by Italy’s

largest river, the Po, which empties into

the sea after a 405 mile journey from the

Cottian Alps on the Italy-French border.

One of this region’s most famous cities,

Venice never fails to impress; its opulent

palazzi and elegant fresco-adorned

churches provide a feast for the eyes while

the creamy, delicious gelati found in its

cafés takes care of the taste buds.

Make the most of your time in the city by

choosing a cruise with an overnight stop in

Venice. That way you can see all the sights

by day and take in its charm by night.

Oceania Cruises features several itineraries with overnight stops in Venice including its 10 day ‘Ionian Inspiration’, departing in September and October 2015.

VeniceFounded in 301AD, San Marino is the

most ancient European Republic in the

world and lies 15km from the Romagna

Riviera. At 700 metres above sea level,

the city straddles UNESCO World

Heritage Site, Mount Titano - part of

the wild and rugged Central Apennine

Mountain range. Although small, San

Marino is perfectly formed and visitors

can indulge in many delightful activities

including shopping, gastronomy, visiting

museums, art galleries and collecting

souvenir stamps & coins, as well as taking

in the stunning scenery with a walk

around the republic.

Cruise lines visiting San Marino (from Ravenna) include Princess Cruises; Seabourn; and Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines (from Ancona).

San MarinoThis tiny Venetian jewel is hard not to fall

in love with. Charming, picturesque and

refreshingly authentic, its many delights

will tempt you to return time after time.

Visit the dramatically-located Church of

St. George, where you will be treated to

wonderful views of the city. Then, relax

in Tartinijev Square and watch the world

go by after enjoying some of the region’s

best seafood in one of the city’s numerous

restaurants. Only 20 minutes by bus from

Koper, the largest town on the Slovenian

Coast, Piran is an ideal place for a day trip

if you are not stopping there as part of

your cruise.

Star Clippers calls into Piran as part of its Adriatic itineraries; alternatively, cruise lines including Norwegian Cruise Line, Princess Cruises, Seabourn and Celebrity Cruises all stop in Koper.

Piran


Cruisin’ Featured Destination

The sparkling aqua-blue waters of the Adriatic have been capturing the hearts of sailors and sea-loving travellers for centuries. Its west coast runs through Italy and San Marino, while its eastern shores grace the rugged landscapes of Croatia, Slovenia and Montenegro. At the top of the sea sits Venice, one of this region’s crown jewels and a firm favourite of both mainstream and niche cruise lines that make it their home for many weeks of the year. Medieval history and maritime culture abound in the port towns and cities of this stunning European inlet and it is this, along with the natural beauty of its coastlines, mountain ranges and beaches that is responsible for making the Adriatic one of the most popular

destinations for cruisers and holidaymakers alike.

AdriaticIt’s all about the

Cruisin’ Magazine 5

• The Adriatic Sea extends 500 miles from

the Gulf of Venice to the Ionian Sea.

• Croatia’s coastal belt is made up of 1185

islands and islets which stretch for

4,058km.

• The east coast of the Adriatic Sea was

inhabited as early as the beginning of the

early Stone Age.

• During both WW1 and WW2 the Adriatic

was an important battle area – there are

many shipwrecks dating from these

periods that are testament to this.

• Over twenty shipwrecks lie off the coast

of Pula, once a strategically vital naval

harbour, including submarines, destroyers

and torpedo-boats.

• According to legend, the artificial islet of

Gospa od Škrpjela (‘Our Lady of the

Rocks’) in Kotor was created by local

seamen after they found an icon

of Madonna and Child on a rock

following a shipwreck. They made an

ancient oath to build a church

on that very site so upon returning from

each successful sea voyage, they laid

a rock in the Bay and over time, the

islet gradually emerged. The custom of

throwing rocks into the sea upon a safe

return to the bay is still alive to this day.

• Scenes for Kings Landing, the capital

of the ‘Seven Kingdoms’ in cult fantasy

drama ‘Game of Thrones’ was filmed in

Dubrovnik.

• Venetian traveller Marco Polo; who was

one of the first Europeans to chronicle

the epic journey from Europe to China is

said to have inspired none other than

Christopher Columbus to travel.

• The Lipica stud farm in Slovenia,

celebrated for its aristocratic Lipizzaners,

is world-renowned and has been

operating uninterruptedly since its

foundation in 1580.

Dubrovnik is extremely popular with cruisers

and holidaymakers alike and for good

reason. A fantastic city for lovers of culture

and history; its Medieval Old Town is dotted

with red-roofed stone buildings, Renaissance

churches and fountains. It is separated from

the sparkling, aqua-blue Adriatic Sea by an

80ft wall, upon which you can walk the 1.3

miles around the city for spectacular views

of the Dalmatian coast. Why not take a

boat tour from Old Town harbour or go sea

kayaking and take in the town walls up close.

Further inland you can enjoy country bike

rides and wine-tasting or take a trip across

the border to Montenegro.

P&O Cruises, Star Clippers, Royal Caribbean International, Cunard, Princess Cruises and many more, visit Dubrovnik throughout the year.

DubrovnikThe fjord-like Bay of Kotor has long been

revered by sailors and tourists alike – its

sheer beauty will have you reaching for your

camera every inch of the way to capture the

grandeur of its surrounding mountains. This

popular port of call is famous not just for its

looks however; history and culture buffs love

it for its art, museums and churches as well

as the remnants of the various empires that

have passed through this region. Adventure

lovers also flock to Kotor for activities

including hiking, mountain biking and

kayaking. It’s also possible to climb the 1300

steps above the city to St. John’s fortress for

spectacular panoramic views over the bay.

You can sail the Bay of Kotor with Princess Cruises, Star Clippers, Cunard, Fred. Olsen, Seabourn and Celebrity Cruises.

Kotor

Perhaps one of the lesser-known Adriatic

ports, Trieste in Italy is a favourite with

writers and artists who enjoy it for its

quiet serenity, authentic nature and lack of

mass-tourism. It is also purported to have

the finest coffee in Italy and is dotted with

charming Viennese-style coffeehouses. As

a frontier city, Trieste has been owned or

occupied by numerous empires and foreign

forces including the Romans, the Habsburgs,

Mussolini, German and Allied Forces and

was only returned to Italy in 1954. Its past

has left it with an eclectic mix of ethnic

culture and architecture, including one of

the largest synagogues in Europe.

Cunard’s Queen Victoria will be visiting Trieste for the first time in 2015. Regent Seven Seas Cruises also call into Trieste in July 2015.

Single cabins, enrichment programs and, perhaps most

influentially, the removal or lowering of single supplements

have all had an impact on a style of travel that many have

seen as unfeasible in the past.

There are various reasons why you may choose to see the world

on your own; self-development, freedom, or sheer determination

to travel somewhere even if nobody else wishes to join you. But,

with operators welcoming a growing number of single cruisers on

board their accommodating ships; there has never been a better

time to travel solo. Ocean CruisingFred. Olsen Cruise Lines

Whilst many brands have used recent refits to ensure they can cater

for solo travellers, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines have been ahead of this

curve for a while. All four of their ships feature single cabins and in

some cases there are even balconies available. This means that you

won’t miss out on the spectacular views or the best prices.

The Black Watch, Balmoral, Braemar and Boudicca also offer the

chance to sit with fellow singles at dinner, be accompanied by a

guest on the dance floor and even choose a companion to join you

on your adventures ashore.

P&O Cruises

British cruise line P&O Cruises not only have a wide selection of

cruises available for families, they also offer a great selection of

sailings for singles. Their latest ship to enter service, Britannia, will

feature almost thirty single cabins, but if you cannot wait until March

2015 then current ships Azura, Ventura and Arcadia have all been

refitted to include specialised cabins too.

Norwegian Cruise Line

Norwegian Cruise Line have made a point of targeting solo cruisers

with their three newest ships, Norwegian Breakaway, Getaway and

Epic. The latter was the first ship in the fleet to do this and is home

to a whopping 128 studio apartments that offer intimate yet stylish

accommodation for adventurous singles. Sister ships Getaway and

Breakaway feature around half this amount, whilst forthcoming

addition, Norwegian Escape, will offer just over eighty.

Norwegian have gone further in their bid to make those travelling

alone feel at home, as anyone staying in a single cabin will receive

exclusive access to the Studio Lounge. This space is designed

specifically to help passengers get to know each other and often

hosts pre-dinner social gatherings.

River CruisingIf you are looking to travel on your own then you are not confined to the

oceans. The intimate and convivial nature of a river cruise means that you

can spend as little or as much time alone as you like, and the excellent

crew to guest ratios mean you will never be ignored. The following

river cruise lines in particular, have gone to great lengths to make solo

passengers feel welcome and involved.

LonelyAlone Doesn’t Have To Mean

Single cruising is a growing market and more and more cruise lines are

creating better facilities for those who like to travel on their own; treating

them on a par with everyone else.

AmaWaterways

Single cabins are somewhat of a rarity on river ships, but AmaWaterways

is one cruise line which breaks the mould. No less than six ships in their

award-winning European fleet feature stylish single staterooms, including

AmaCello, AmaDolce and AmaLyra.

The Berlitz rated “Best River Cruise Fleet in Europe” has also decided

to waive a whole host of supplemental charges on many of their

itineraries such as “The Romantic Danube”, “Tulip Time Cruise” and the

festive favourite “Christmas Time Cruise”.

Uniworld

Whilst Uniworld only offer one single stateroom across their fleet, on

board SS Catherine, they have joined AmaWaterways in doing away with

certain supplements. This means you can opt for itineraries like “Grand

France”, “Imperial Waterways of Russia” and “European Jewels” whilst

saving yourself fifty per cent in the process.

Viking River Cruises

Viking are one of the world’s most loved river cruise lines and the fact

that single guests are so well treated probably has a lot to do with this.

Whilst you are free to come and go as you wish, enjoying the excellent

service and facilities; single staterooms on both Viking Legend and Viking

Prestige will ensure you don’t have to pay a pretty penny to do so.

Expedition Cruising

Why not broaden your horizons and head somewhere truly unique.

There are a range of expedition cruises that allow you to explore unique

landscapes in both the Arctic and the Antarctic and avoid those parts

of the world which are regularly frequented by tourists and adventurers

alike.

Many expedition operators, including G Adventures, Quark and

Lindblad, offer the option to share with another guest to avoid paying a

single supplement. Someone of the same gender and roughly the same

age will be chosen to share with you and each person will therefore only

have to pay for themselves. To learn more about these expedition cruises,

see pages 18-19.

Whichever style of cruising you choose, sailing the world as a single cruiser is a great way to travel. You are sure to enjoy many new experiences and quickly discover that alone doesn’t have to mean lonely.



Your World Your WayA ship that feels less like a ship and more like a luxury hotel, an ambience that is relaxed, service that is

impeccable and amazing food that wins awards… This is what cruising with Oceania is all about. As the fastest growing cruise line in the luxury sector in the UK, Oceania Cruises is first choice for the discerning, sophisticated

traveller in search of an enriching, destination-oriented experience aboard a luxurious home from home.

Cruise after cruise, AmaWaterways’ guests speak of the wonderful service they received on board. It could be the waiter who learned their names and remembered their drink of choice at dinner, or the chef at breakfast who knew how they liked their eggs.

2014 marked the 100 year anniversary of a waterway which transformed both trade and tourist routes in Central and South America. The Panama Canal was first opened in August of 1914 and was welcomed with open arms due to the fact that it resolved a frustrating issue of having to sail round Cape Horn when travelling south from the Atlantic into the Pacific.

Not only has the introduction of this exceptional feat of modern engineering been an important influence in the increase of maritime trade; tourism in this part of the world has also benefited as travellers look to explore the canal itself and take a much more convenient route through Central America.

The Convenience and Curiosity of

Canal Cruising

Panamax-imum Capacity

Construction was initiated by the French

in 1881 but was actually completed by the

Americans over three decades later. Created

via the use of excavations and a man-made

lake to keep these to a minimum; the canal

features locks that were originally designed

by Gustave Eiffel, is 26 metres above sea

level, and is nearly 50 miles long.

Vindication for a stretch of water, which

sadly saw thousands of men lose their lives

during its construction, is shown in the way

that annual traffic has continued to increase

since that day 100 years ago. In its first year,

the canal saw around 1,000 ships enter or

exit through Limon Bay, but in 2008 this

figure had reached over fourteen times that

amount. The volume of ships that traverse

these waters is set to rise again though as

the latest facelift will allow modern-day

megaships, almost three times larger than the

current Panamax vessels (the largest ships to

use the canal), to make their way through this

Panamanian ‘short-cut’ from 2016 onwards.

A Collection Of Canals

This was by no means the first canal of its

kind though, as the construction effort was

inspired by a similar creation built just twelve

years before. We are, of course, referring

to the Suez Canal; a man-made stretch of

water that allows ships to travel between

the Red and Mediterranean Seas without

having to take the route around Africa, thus

saving 7,000 miles. Just like its counterpart

in Panama, the Suez Canal is currently being

expanded to allow more traffic to utilise it.

Other similar man-made channels include

the Kiel Canal, first established in 1784 and

which provides convenient passage from the

Baltic Sea into the North Sea; and the Corinth

Canal of which construction began in the

same year as work was initiated in Panama.

Many cruise operators will give you the

chance to see some of these amazing feats of

engineering up close and personal. Companies

such as Princess Cruises, Celebrity Cruises and

Royal Caribbean International all have Panama

Canal cruises available which typically travel

between the cities of Fort Lauderdale and

either Los Angeles or San Diego. Suez Canal

cruises are also very popular, with operators

like Fred. Olsen, P&O Cruises and Azamara

offering itineraries that visit ports in both the

Middle East and the Med.

A trip along the Suez with Fred. Olsen

Cruise Lines typically starts at £1176, whilst

a cruise on the Panama Canal with Princess

Cruises could start from as little as £783 for

an eleven night round trip.



Cruise Picks

for all the FamilyCruise lines are becoming more and more inventive when it comes to onboard facilities for families. At the heart of these facilities are children, who are now well catered for thanks to kids clubs, teen clubs, onboard cinemas and special experiences featuring famous characters from film and fantasy, as well as family-friendly activities they can enjoy with mum and dad. We have put together a selection of some of the most popular onboard activities for all members of the family…

Fun for the kiddiesRoyal Caribbean International -

‘The Barbie Premium Experience’

Only on Royal Caribbean, girls aged four

to 11 can set sail on a Barbie dream cruise

complete with fun, fashion and runway

moments. Here, they can make lifelong

memories and take to the waves in true

Barbie style and enjoy complimentary Barbie

features such as Barbie Movie Night, Barbie

Story Time and other themed activities,

plus Barbie movies on their stateroom TVs.

Additional cost of $199* per child.

Pullmantur Cruises – ‘Guppy Club’

Younger travellers will love Pullmantur’s kids’

clubs. Guppy Club ‘Minis’ for children aged

3-6 and Guppy Club ‘Guppys’ for slightly

older children aged 7-11 can be found on all

of their ships and are available free of charge.

Supervised by professionals, kids can join in

every day activities with scheduled workshops,

face-painting, costumes and dressing up,

contests, mini-clubs, kid shows and much,

much more. Parents can then kick back and

relax with the peace of mind of knowing that

their kids are well taken care of.

*$75 on sailings on Majesty and Enchantment of the Seas,

and excludes the Fashion Designer Workshop.

Fun for TeensEpic’s Entourage

Norwegian Epic caters brilliantly for teens

with its dedicated teen area, Entourage.

Young travellers aged 13 to 17 can hang out

and relax in this innovative space which

includes air hockey; pinball; foosball; a video

jukebox; and nine flat-screen TV’s, five of

which are located around a central video

game console featuring PS3. In the evening,

Entourage turns into a nightclub where teens

can dance the night away until the wee small

hours. There’s also an arcade a floor below.

P&O Britannia’s teen sun deck

Debuting in March 2015, Britannia, the biggest

ship built for the British market; includes

a whole host of special features for all the

family to enjoy including The Cookery Club

and entertainment venue, The Limelight

Club. Especially for teens however, is a

dedicated sun deck and pool. A first for P&O,

this is a great place for them to call their own

and hang out with new-found friends.

Fun for Mum & DadCanyon Ranch SpaClub – Celebrity Cruises

Canyon Ranch is one of the world’s leading

spa and wellness brands and guests on board

Celebrity’s ships can indulge in a range of

award-winning treatments to leave them

looking as good as they feel. These luxury

treatments range from deep cleansing facials,

aromatherapy massages and reflexology, to

acupuncture and medi-peel facials. There

are also couples massages available for both

sexes to enjoy. Other services at the SpaClub

include hair design, manicure and pedicures,

personal training sessions and more.

Epic Entertainment Norwegian Cruise Line’s Epic is filled to

the brim with adult-friendly entertainment,

including the fantastic Blue Man Group,

who have taken time out of entertaining the

crowds in Vegas to bring their innovative

brand of comedy, music and light shows

to the ship. Fat Cats Jazz & Blues club can

also be found on board and will keep guests

entertained six nights a week as well as the

‘World’s Greatest Rock & Roll Duelling Piano

Bar’, Howl at the Moon. There are also over

20 dining options offering fantastic variety;

from cheeseburgers to coq au vin, there is

something to satisfy all tastes!


Itinerary: Barcelona to LivornoDay 1 - Embarkation

Following a very efficient, clean and quick flight from Stansted, and

a short twenty minute drive to Barcelona port, we checked-in and

got on board just after 1pm.

Our first experience of Sovereign was a buffet-style lunch in

the main dining room. It was very nice and the service was very

attentive. After refuelling ourselves with the excellent options

available, it was finally time to see our cabin; a large ocean view

room which was very clean, and surprisingly modern for a ship of

her age.

The sailaway party was superb, as a Spanish-based cruise line

they really do know how to celebrate. As dinner came and went,

we just about mustered up enough energy to enjoy a coffee in Café

San Marco and have a brief look around the shops before heading

off to bed.

Day 2 - Sea Day

The following day we had plenty of opportunity to explore Sovereign

and get a real taste for what a Pullmantur cruise is like. We enjoyed a

tasty buffet breakfast (be warned, the Spanish don’t have the same

passion for queuing as us Brits, so don’t be afraid to dive on in!)

followed by a drink in the Spinnaker Piano Bar. The crew later put on

a lively lunch, featuring a ‘dance off’ which was great fun, then we

treated ourselves to a nail treatment in the spa.

It wasn’t long before we were taking advantage of the all-inclusive

drinks. There are a surprising amount of options, including branded

drinks, and the staff seem to relish learning each guest’s favourite

tipple and serving it up with a smile.

In the evening we went to the Captain’s Cocktail Party.

Champagne and canapés were offered as we were introduced to

the ship’s various heads of department. It was great to see how

much the staff were appreciated and the occasion ended with a flag

parade representing the 30 different nationalities of crew onboard.

Later, we had dinner at the speciality ‘Wu’ restaurant. This exotic

Asian-fusion restaurant is supplementary to Pullmantur’s otherwise

all-inclusive offering but was only €25 each and included a bottle of

wine! We couldn’t fault the staff, food, presentation or ambience and

were surprised that the restaurant wasn’t full to the brim.

Day 3 - Naples

We headed out on the English-speaking tour of Naples and

Pompeii (additional English excursions are added to itineraries

depending on demand). Pompeii was fantastic and an absolute

must on this trip.

Back on the ship, there was time for a dip in the Jacuzzi before

dinner in the main restaurant where it was Cocktail Party theme.

The pool deck had been transformed into a tropical beach

paradise; tables laid out with amazing symmetrical fruit displays,

Friends Kathy and Lucy recently enjoyed an all inclusive cruise

on board Pullmantur’s Sovereign, travelling from Barcelona to

Livorno; visiting Naples and Rome along the way…

cakes, fruit skewers and ice carvings. Make sure you fuel up at

dinner however as true to Mediterranean lifestyles; the party

wasn’t due to get going until 12.45am! We couldn’t stay up quite

that late, so instead joined in with the Salsa Dancing before

heading off to bed.

Day 4 - Rome

We had an early start for our 90 minute transfer from Civitavecchia

Port to Rome, where we spent the day sightseeing. While the driver

mainly spoke Spanish during the journey, a fellow passenger kindly

informed us (in English) that the pick-up time was at 4.30.

Whilst a day is not really long enough to truly appreciate Rome,

it was great to see the major sights including the Colosseum, Piazza

Venezia and Trevi Fountain. Back on the Ship that evening, dinner

was great once again with salmon, veal, pork and lots of other things

on the menu.

Day 5 - Livorno

Check-out was at 11am and our taxi transfer arrived on time to take

us from Livorno to Pisa airport. Pisa airport is small but does have

some nice shops to help you pass the time before your flight.

We had a great experience with Pullmantur. The ship had a real

party atmosphere and is definitely aimed at young couples or

families. The language barrier never really affected our day to day

activities on the ship. One thing is for certain though; cruising with

Pullmantur means totally giving yourself to the Spanish culture and

taking everything as it comes.

Pullmantur understands that everybody wants something different from their cruise holiday. Whether you are coming on board with your family, your partner, by yourself or with friends, we have blended together all the ingredients needed for the perfect trip. Spectacular nights, fun-filled days, relaxing afternoons and unforgettable excursions combine for an ocean adventure you will never forget. Putting entertainment, fun, and a relaxed, carefree attitude at the top of our list, Pullmantur’s all-inclusive cruise holidays offer fantastic value for money for children and adults alike. With nothing to worry about except what you want to do each day, you are certain to wake up with a smile on your face every day.

Wildlife, Wilderness and WanderlustYour Once In A Lifetime Could Be Today

Travel is all about stepping into unknown territories and exploring

new places, but how often do we really get the chance to do this?

Many of the world’s destinations may be foreign to us personally,

but plenty of people have trodden these paths before us and

countless more are likely to follow in our footsteps. However, this

is something that cannot be said about the polar regions of the

Arctic and Antarctica.

Polar Expedition cruises offer the chance to discover

destinations that feature on very few people’s ‘been there done

that’ lists, and are featured in even fewer travel guides.

The Amazing Arctic

Covering countries such as Canada, Norway, Iceland and

Greenland; Arctic voyages take you right into the heart of the

action. You will get the chance to witness polar bears in their

natural habitat, interact with indigenous communities that have

made the Arctic their home for hundreds of years, and experience

some of nature’s most outstanding showcases.

The Northern Lights may well make an appearance should you

travel during the autumn or winter months, whilst anyone sailing

during the summer will be able to observe the glorious Midnight

Sun. This natural phenomenon happens for differing lengths of time

depending on how far north you go, but generally speaking the

majority of the Arctic Circle is bathed in twenty-four hour sunlight

between the months of May and August.

Throughout your journey you will increase your knowledge and

understanding of this part of the world, and the wildlife that live

here, thanks to experienced and passionate expedition lecturers.

Their understanding of the local area will give you the best chance

of spotting polar bears, whales, seabirds and any other creatures

that may be on view. As well as tours of the Arctic, polar cruises

can take you to the top of the world. A limited number of polar

voyages offer you the opportunity to go all the way to the North

Pole on board a nuclear powered ice-breaker vessel. If simply

being there isn’t enough, on arrival at 90° north explorers are

encouraged to plunge themselves into the freezing waters in the

ultimate test of fortitude.

Awesome Antarctica

Antarctica and its surrounding territories also have their own

story to tell. As you make your way to the seventh continent,

your expedition may also make stops in places such as the

Falklands, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. Many

of these destinations are uninhabited, but you will also have the

opportunity to see thriving communities and learn all about their

way of life.

Your journey to Antartica will start in South America as you

depart from Chile, Argentina or Uruguay’s Montevideo airport.

There are fly & cruise options available as well as journeys that

enable you to sail all the way, plus you have a chance to explore

your departure city before you embark on your adventure.

As you set foot on the Antarctic Peninsula, having navigated

the tricky and unpredictable Drake Passage, you are sure to be

greeted by the stars of this icy show; penguins. From Gentoos to

Chinstraps and, of course, the noble Emperor; these black and

white creatures are what many people come this far to see.

There is plenty more to see around you too. Enormous

icebergs drift past eerily while distant roars, as icebergs come

apart and crash into the sea, can be heard from afar. Large, icy

peeks dominate the landscape as you stare out into the pristine

white and imagine the endeavours of brave explorers such as

Robert Falcon Scott, Roald Amundsen and Ernest Shackleton.

You may have been to America, you may have visited Africa, you may even have immersed yourself in the Far Eastern culture of Asia, but have you ever set foot on the icy landscape that is Antarctica? If the answer is no then it’s time you learnt of the jaw-dropping world of expedition cruises…


Fast Facts...

More Than A Passing Visit Whilst the ships that will take you on these exciting adventures

are not only comfortable, safe and offer some excellent on board

facilities; much of the action will take place away from them. A

fleet of Zodiacs will enable you to get up close and personal with

fjords, islets and caves, whilst there are also a host of exhilarating

activities to take part in onshore.

The opportunity to camp out under the polar night’s sky should

not be missed and those who would rather forgo the Zodiacs in

favour of travelling via kayak are encouraged to do so. Helicopter

rides, hot air balloon trips, photography workshops and plenty

of walking, hiking and trekking will also ensure that you can

take in your incredible surroundings from a variety of different

perspectives.

Antarctic

Size: Antarctica is just less than 14 million square kilometres.

That’s over 60 times larger than the UK.

Notable Inhabitants: Penguins (8 species), seals, dolphins,

terns, petrels, shags.

Southernmost City: Ushuaia

Did You Know?

• Antarctica is protected by a treaty meaning that, despite

claims from many countries, no one can actually ‘own’ the land.

• Antarctica has no set time zone and so each research centre

stationed there usually sets the time to that of their home nation.

Arctic

Size: The Arctic Circle covers 6% of the world’s surface.

Notable Inhabitants: Inuit communities, polar bears, reindeer,

muskox, walrus, puffins, Arctic foxes.

Northernmost City: Longyearbyen

Did You Know?

• Due to the tilting of the Earth’s axis, the Arctic Circle

is on the move. Between 1950 and 2008 it moved

over 800 metres.

• It is against the law to die in Longyearbyen.

Land of Ice and Fire (Iceland Circumnavigation) Mythical Iceland is the land of ice and fire, with glaciers and volcanoes side by side. It is the perfect destination for explorers looking for the unexpected.

Cruise like a


Venice

Of all the romantic and beautiful cities in Europe, Venice is perhaps the one that features most prominently on people’s bucket lists. It’s the uniqueness of this floating city that attracts people from far and wide, as well as the fact that you can easily lose yourself in its quaint maze of canals and cobbled streets. And with art, culture and architectural beauty around every corner, it is little wonder that this Italian gem is in high demand.

Whether you refer to it specifically as your ‘bucket list’ or not, the chances are that you have a mental catalogue of all the exciting places in the world that you would like to visit someday. Here are some fantastic locations to add to your own personal list, if they don’t feature there already…

AweA bucketful of

The Grand Canyon

The Grand Canyon, situated in Arizona, USA, is truly one of the natural wonders of the modern world and a sight that many people clamber to see. At its widest point, the gap between the two sides is 18 miles and geologists believe that the Colorado River which weaves its way through the valley has been carving out its path for at least seventeen million years. Arrive early in the morning to experience a beautiful sunset that will stay with you forever.

The Maldives

For those who like to relax and do nothing more than…well, nothing whilst away, the Maldives have to be the pinnacle of luxury holidays. The islands are filled with exclusive boutique resorts that offer fine dining, pristine beaches and spa treatments that transport you to another world. In a time where we are constantly connected with what’s happening around us, these picturesque retreats offer the chance to truly cut loose from modern day ties.

Peru

Backpackers and hiking enthusiasts travel to Peru every year to take on the 4-day journey known as the Inca Trail. Whilst the trek along one of three trails might be arduous, there is something magical waiting at the end to make it all worthwhile; Machu Picchu. These ancient Incan ruins are one of the most preserved cultural sights in the world and are constantly being restored by local archaeologists.

The inspiration for a holiday can come from anywhere. It could be a recommendation from a friend, an irresistible advert that you see in a travel agent’s window or fuelled by what we see on the silver screen or our own humble TV set. Here are some excellent destinations that you may just have spied during the films and TV shows that the past year has offered us.

New Zealand – The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

Fans of elves, orcs and wizards alike will be

more than aware that the final instalment in

the Hobbit series was released in cinemas

in December 2014. Something else that

will be apparent to anyone who is familiar

with these films and those of the Lord of

the Rings trilogy, is that the majority of the

filming was done in New Zealand.

Whilst being a beautiful and breath-taking

destination in its own right, the success of

these movies has given tourists an extra

reason to visit New Zealand. Tolkien fans will

encounter familiar settings on both North

and South Island, none more so than at the

Hobbiton movie set near Matamata. Other

locations of interest include the beautiful

town of Glenorchy where you may recognise

the fortress of ‘Isengard’ and the Pelorus

River in Marlborough where the infamous

barrel scene from ‘The Desolation of Smaug’

was filmed.

Northern Ireland – Game of Thrones

Game of Thrones is one of the biggest TV

series in recent years, delighting fans all over

the world who are drawn into this fantasy

world of dragons, dwarfs and Daenerys

Targaryen. It may surprise some avid viewers

though that filming is carried out in Northern

Ireland. Winterfell, capital of The North

and home to the Starks, is better known

as Castle Ward in County Down and the

gloomy-looking King’s Road is actually a

row of beech trees in County Antrim known

as the Dark Hedges. Fans of this epic series

can now experience the beauty we have

just across the Irish Sea whilst walking in

the footsteps of some of their favourite

characters.

Atlantic City – Boardwalk Empire

The critically acclaimed American series

Boardwalk Empire, reached its final

season in 2014. Although most of the

scenes were shot in New York City,

the programme is set in 1920s Atlantic

City with many of the outside locations

(including the boardwalk itself) created

with the use of visual effects.

Although the city is, thankfully, a much

different place today to how it was during

the era that Boardwalk Empire is set;

many fans of the show will want to see the

charm of the boardwalk for themselves.

Not to mention the beautiful beaches,

numerous gambling opportunities and

excellent shopping.

Italy – The Trip

This cult TV series, in which Rob Brydon

and Steve play themselves as they

travel together, aired its second series

in 2014, but may have passed under the

radar for many. Fans of the two comedy

geniuses will be well aware that this

time the two were travelling through the

wonderful country of Italy. As they began

in Piedmont and made their way south

through Siena, Rome and then finally onto

Capri, they are sure to have inspired many

a trip to this magnificent part of the world.

As Seen on the

*And small screen!Big* Screen...

New York City If there is one place in the world that will keep

you entertained around the clock, then it has

to be the ‘city that never sleeps’. As cultural

as it is iconic and as glamorous as it is diverse,

New York City will captivate and inspire you

in equal measures. Whether you choose to

take a stroll around Central Park, go shopping

in Times Square or take a thought-provoking

visit to the 9/11 memorial, the Big Apple is

sure to leave a lasting impression on you in

one way or another.

Why not spend a few nights in New York at the start or end of a transatlantic cruise?

Dubai Dubai has to be one of the most luxurious

and opulent destinations in the world and

one which allows you to be as active or

inactive as you like. There are beaches to lay

on, a plethora of shopping malls to explore,

the world’s tallest building to scale and even

waterparks to enjoy; all within easy walking

distance of each other. And with some of the

most refined hotels on the planet offering

much more than just a bed for the night,

all the ingredients are there to create the

holiday of a lifetime.

Cruise to Dubai and enjoy a night’s stay in 5* luxury.

China China is an enormous country featuring

many excellent cities that provide wonderful

destinations for a holiday. However, as well as

trips to specific cities, why not embark on a tour

that takes in multiple locations and gives you a

chance to see many of the major sights in one

trip. One such tour features stays in Shanghai,

Xian and Beijing; allowing you to experience

famous attractions such as the Terracotta

Warriors, the Forbidden City, parts of the Great

Wall and the Yu Garden whilst really immersing

yourself in China’s fascinating culture.

Consider a Yangtze river cruise taking in the Great Wall, Three Gorges and more...

Canada Journeying across the Canadian Rockies on

the Rocky Mountaineer is one of the most

popular Canadian holidays on offer today.

This inspiring journey allows you to enjoy

some of Canada’s stunning natural beauty,

including Lake Louise, Banff National Park,

and the Columbia ice fields, as well as taking

in the sights of one of the country’s biggest

cities; Vancouver. Spot bears in their natural

habitat and take part in exciting activities

such as adventuring through Capilano

Suspension Bridge Park.

Combine the Rockies with a stay in Vancouver, or embark on a Rail & Alaska Cruise holiday.

South Africa South Africa can offer a variety of different

holidays, from a modern city break in Cape

Town or Johannesburg to an enthralling

safari in one of the game reserves in the east

of the country. But if you don’t want to miss

out on either experience, you can always

combine the two. A holiday that starts with

a cable car journey up Table Mountain and

ends with you chasing the Big Five in the

Kruger National Park is sure to be one filled

with many lasting memories.

Why not book a twin centre holiday combining Cape Town with 3 nights in the Wineland region or a safari.

Ingredients2 racks of lamb, with 6 -7 bones each

2 sprigs parsley

6-7 leaves mint

1 sprig thyme

1 sprig rosemary

250g breadcrumbs

3 tbsp Dijon mustard

2 tbsp olive oil

Salt and pepper

MethodPreheat your oven to 200°C while you season and

sear the lamb in hot oil (fat side first). Once the

crust turns a nice golden brown, pop it into the

oven and roast for 7 to 8 minutes.

While you wait, chop the stems off the herbs and

combine with breadcrumbs in a blender. Blend

until the mixture turns bright green.

Remove the lamb from the oven then brush with

the mustard before dipping into the herb-crust

mix. Allow to rest. Return the lamb to the oven for

a further 2-3 minutes, then carve the racks into

individual chops before serving!
