Itinerary Options

One of the great advantages of traveling by cargo ship is the amazing flexibility available to you, the passenger.

You can join the ship for as long as you wish. You may even choose to disembark from one ship, spend a week ashore at a place of your choice, and then join another ship for the rest of your voyage. Passengers on the Grimaldi Line can disembark at one port and rejoin another ship one, two or three weeks later as these ships operate a regular weekly service.

Some other options you may like to consider are:

Fly – Interlude – Cruise

Fly to the country from which your cruise leaves, take some time to explore the area, then join your ship for your voyage home, arriving fresh and relaxed from your time at sea. Example: fly to England, explore the UK, join your ship and sail home via the Suez or Panama canal calling at up to nine ports before stepping ashore in New Zealand.

Cruise – Interlude – Fly

Or reverse the arrangement and arrive at your destination totally energized and ready to start sight-seeing! A voyage from Auckland via Noumea, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Singapore, Jeddah, Suez Canal, Malta La Spezia to London, England has enough interest to satisfy the most experienced traveller.

Fly – Interlude – Cruise – Interlude – Fly

Taking a cruise between touring different countries is an excellent method of having a rest and giving yourself time to assimilate all you have seen before beginning another section of your holiday. For example, take an fourteen day voyage from Monfalcone to Pireaus, Ashdod, Haifa, Izmir, Ravenna, Koper and back to Northern Italy port of Monfalcone - 14 days for only 780 Euros per person. Other interesting trips are available around the Mediterranean.
