Transatlantic Cruises
The Atlantic remains one of the oldest cruise routes from the days of steam ships bringing travellers to America, the land of opportunity. Like those pilgrims most cruises will take the modern traveller straight to New York to see the Statue of Liberty as they did all those years ago.
Unlike those pilgrims the modern traveller is spoilt for the luxury and comfort that comes with being on a cruise across the Atlantic, onboard entertainment and the endless peace that lies at sea, most people will confess that the true appeal of being on a transatlantic cruise is not for the destination but the voyage itself.
Of course being a cruise across the Atlantic it does take some time to reach the destination, when you step aboard the cruise liner you are stepping onto your home for the next 2 weeks or so, not just a ship. The exhilarating rush and intimidation of being onboard such a large vessel in a massive body of water like this are all part of the attraction and provide something for the mind to ponder over and to make you feel like you truly have escaped from your normal daily routine.
Depending on the cruise route the time aboard the cruise ship can vary from 6 days to more than 2 weeks, giving you time to relax and forget your worries in the calm of the Atlantic Ocean. Our staff will be on hand to make sure you are truly relaxed and enjoying your cruise at all times.
Some Cruise routes make a stop at the Canary Islands giving travellers the chance to explore one of British tourists’ most popular tourist destinations. Travellers can also use this time to catch some sun on dry land before setting out into the vast ocean that is the Atlantic.
Other cruise routes make a stop off in Iceland giving travellers the chance to explore this lands moon-like volcano covered exterior for themselves.
No transatlantic cruise would be complete without the arrival in America, most cruises will opt to climax in New York, allowing travellers to see the Statue of Liberty and go on a shopping experience that is unrivalled by any other city in the world. Be among the hustle and bustle of New York life and experience what it is like to live in the ‘Big Apple’ for a day. Other cities along the western coast may be included but New York is the one to see, with its epic skyline of skyscrapers reaching up high above.
Transatlantic cruise ships offer the same high level of service and luxury as in any cruise ship around the planet. With a staggering array of international cuisine, leisure activities, and entertainment transatlantic cruises ensure that they provide an unforgettable experience that the whole family will cherish forever.
