Why book a December cruise?

Apart from Christmastime, winter in the UK can feel a little gloomy. But it doesn’t have to be this way! You can hop on a no-fly December cruise from various ports in the UK and be transported to a sunny beach in no time. Cruise holidays are perfect for those wishing to see more of the world with minimal hassle. Our no-fly cruises make it easy to explore, so all you have to do is choose a destination. A festive cruise is also perfectly timed so that you can shop for Christmas gifts in exotic destinations, ready for present-giving on the day itself.

Embark on a December adventure in the sun

Whether you’re tempted to book a Caribbean cruise, an adventure to the Middle East or a cruise to Australia, there are plenty of sunny destinations to visit during a December cruise. Winter in the UK can be wonderfully festive but also cold and chaotic. If you feel like escaping to warmer climes, browse our selection of cruises departing in December to find your ideal break with blue skies. Our December cruises to the Canary Islands will take you to the sunny shores of Tenerife and the mysterious, volcanic landscapes of Lanzarote. Sitting just off the coast of Africa, the Canary Islands guarantee sunshine.

End your year in style

If the dreary winter weather is getting you down, why not get away from it all on a December cruise? We offer many luxury cruises during December, allowing you to end your year in style with a glass of Champagne or a cocktail in hand and fine dining menus guaranteed to impress. Alternatively, embrace December’s wintery weather on a magical northern lights cruise to Norway. Sail through the majestic Norwegian Fjords and watch the night sky to catch a glimpse of the green and purple aurora.
