One of the most underrated cruise destinations can be found in northwest Australia in the rugged and wild Kimberley region.

Found at the northern end of the state of Western Australia, the Kimberley is a vast region of almost half a million square kilometres, yet sparsely populated and thus retaining its raw natural beauty.

Often overlooked as a cruising destination as travellers head to the nearby Caribbean islands, I thought I would put together a little guide on the best places to visit on a luxury cruise in Mexico.

Mexico is vibrant, colourful and unique, offering anything from beautiful sparse deserts, tropical rainforests and snow-capped volcanoes to bustling cities, steep canyons and inviting beaches of silver sand. Extraordinary history is found in the ancient Mayan temples, Aztec ruins and Spanish colonial towns, along with silver-mining settlements and traditional Mexican ports.

Our journey to Porto had not been without its stresses, with confusion surrounding testing and Portuguese entry requirements, but thankfully the team at Panache had come up trumps giving us sound advice and double checking that we would arrive with all our paperwork in place. Despite the pre-travel concerns the actual travel to Porto was relatively easy and apart from a couple of checks at check-in and an extra form to show at passport control it really was no different to travel pre-pandemic.

Choosing the best time of year to visit Antarctica is vital when planning the trip of a lifetime. The South Pole may be cold, well, all year round - but believe it or not the weather and climate do vary in Antarctica and this should be taken into consideration before planning your expedition cruise.

Every keen traveller has a bucket list of epic destinations they absolutely must visit one day. Cruising is no exception.

Lisbon is one of Europe's best city breaks right now. Situated on seven hills at the mouth of the River Tagus, Portugal's capital is the second oldest capital city in Europe after Athens, and as such has a colourful history, rich culture, and beautiful architecture.

Known as the City of Light, Lisbon has around 220 days of sunlight each year and is a popular cruise destination, acting as a gateway to the Mediterranean, Canary Islands, and North Africa. Lisbon is also often found on transatlantic cruise itineraries, keeping its historical connection with South America.
