With her December 2026 launch one of the most highly anticipated events in this year’s cruising calendar, each new detail revealed about Regent’s first new ship class in a decade makes it clear just how much of a landmark moment it really is.

Azamara enthusiasts will be delighted to hear that the line has last week announced the addition of 36 new-to-brand AzAmazing Evenings for their 2027 season—and there’s plenty to get stuck into.

Unparalleled access to gather data and conducting the research that helps HX Expeditions' scientific partners learn more about these regions and preserve them for future generations—welcome to the Citizen Science programme. 

It’s that time of year again. The sun is shining (some of the time). The jingle of the ice-cream van and smell of barbecue smoke fill the air. Everyone you know is seemingly jetting off on the trip of a lifetime and that little voice is your head is saying, ‘I wish I was on a cruise.’

Already renowned for their sophisticated luxury and highly personalised small ship experience, one of the most unique draws of Silversea is their Sea and Land Taste Programme (S.A.L.T.)

As the sun rose over the Italian port city of Genoa this weekend, it signified an incredibly exciting milestone for Explora Journeys. 

As their Ruby Anniversary approaches, it looks like there are big things on the horizon for Seabourn.

For a renowned brand like Azamara, it would be all too easy to sit back and revel in the incredible product they’re created. However, rather than resting on their laurels, Azamara have decided to move forward, with their (rather aptly named) Azamara Forward initiative. 

When it comes to red-letter days in the 2026 cruising calendar, the December launch of Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ new vessel - Seven Seas Prestige - pretty much takes the crown. 

But what if we told you things were about to get even more exciting?

Sun, sea, sand, sangria, snow, sightseeing, safaris, stunning landscapes, spectacular cities…whatever ‘holiday’ looks like to you, July is one of the best times of year to set sail.
