Rocky Mountaineer | Regent Seven Seas Cruises

You’ll be treated to the award-winning GoldLeaf service and five-star dining, with all the amazing scenery just a glass-thickness away.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises is the perfect pairing for such a jaw-dropping adventure. A luxury experience deserves a luxury ship and, while on board Seven Seas Explorer, a member of The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet™, you can expect nothing less than the very best.

Monaco Grand Prix | Silversea

The Monaco Grand Prix is a mecca for Formula 1 fans. Next year, the event will celebrate its 80th outing, so there has been no better time to see it for yourself. Sit back in awe as the racing drivers roar past at one of the most legendary circuits in the world, all while you’re basking in the sunshine of the French Riviera.

Few cruise lines allow you to experience the Monaco Grand Prix in quite so much style as Silversea. You will enjoy the experience as part of a voyage from Rome to Barcelona aboard Silver Spirit with two days in Monte Carlo. Take your place and prepare to be amazed as the racing drivers hurtle around this country, which spans a mere one square mile.

Rio Carnival | Azamara

The energy, the atmosphere, the colour – there are plenty of reasons why the Rio Carnival features on so many people’s bucket lists. It’s a tradition that goes back as far as the 1700s and still draws the crowds today. Watch as the streets of Rio de Janeiro come alive, and you’re defied not to get swept away by the spirit of one of the world’s greatest parties.

Azamara will take you to the city during the peak of the Carnival festivities, including Fat Tuesday. You’ll be able to recuperate on Azamara Pursuit, your boutique hotel at sea, whether that’s by enjoying an exceptional meal in one of the speciality restaurants, or a relaxing treatment in The Sanctum Spa.

Northern Lights | Cunard

The Northern Lights are one of nature’s most incredible phenomena. There’s something magical about watching a kaleidoscope of colour dance across the night sky, and you don’t need to travel too far from the UK to see it for yourself.

Cunard transports guests high into the Arctic Circle direct from Southampton, taking in the stunning ports of Narvik and Tromsø. It’s here that you have the best possible chance of spotting the aurora borealis, thanks to the clear, crisp skies and geographical position. Queen Victoria will transport you there, a stunning ship that boasts the best in style and service.

Panama Canal Passage | Seabourn

The Panama Canal is hailed as one of the world’s most remarkable waterways. Spanning around 40 miles long, it sails between the east and west coasts of the USA, saving a trip around Cape Horn and shortening the journey by 8,000 nautical miles. The canal has been welcoming ships for over 100 years and, these days, it’s become a must-see adventure for anyone who loves sailing.

Experience the Panama Canal in ultra-luxury on Seabourn’s brand new PC-6-class expedition ship, Seabourn Venture, which features just 132 all-veranda suites, plus Zodiacs, kayaks, two-six-seater submersibles and the experience of a World-class 26-strong expedition team. You’ll enter the Panama Canal at Cristobal and exit in Balboa – then wend your way through jungled channels and huge locks that defy even the most vivid imagination. This is your opportunity to create memories that will last a lifetime.
