World Cruise Segment - Southampton to San Francisco
Offer Highlights
Lying near the head of Southampton Water, a peninsula between the estuaries of the Rivers Test and Itchen, Southampton is Britain’s largest cruise port. It has been one of England’s major ports since the Middle Ages, when it exported wool and hides from the hinterland and imported wine from Bordeaux. The city suffered heavy damage during World War Two and as a result the centre has been extensively rebuilt, but there are still some interesting medieval buildings including the Bargate, one of the finest city gatehouses in England.
Formed by a volcanic eruption, Madeira lies in the Gulf Stream, about 500 miles due west of Casablanca. Discovered by Portuguese explorer João Gonçalves Zarco in 1419, this beautiful island became part of Portugal’s vast empire and was named for the dense forest which cloaked it - 'Madeira' means 'wood' in Portuguese. Sugar plantations first brought wealth here, and when King Charles II of England granted an exclusive franchise to sell wine to England and its colonies, many British emigrants were drawn to the capital, Funchal. Today’s travellers come to Madeira for the varied and luxuriant scenery, from mountain slopes covered with vines to picturesque villages and a profusion of wild flowers. The natural beauty of the island has earned it many pseudonyms such as ‘The Floating Garden of the Atlantic’, 'The Island of Eternal Springtime' and ‘God’s Botanical Gardens’ and our selection of excursions aim to show you why.
Located beside the island’s only natural harbour, the capital of Barbados combines modern and colonial architecture with glorious palm tree-lined beaches and a number of historical attractions. Experience the relaxed culture of the city renowned for its British-style parliament buildings and vibrant beach life, and seek out the Anglican church and the 19th-century Barbados Garrison. The distance between the ship and your tour vehicle may vary. This distance is not included in the excursion grades.
Curaçao is a vibrant island in the southern Caribbean, just off the coast of Venezuela, and part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Known for its colorful Dutch colonial architecture, especially in the capital Willemstad (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), the island blends European charm with Caribbean warmth. Curaçao boasts stunning beaches with crystal-clear waters, making it a paradise for snorkeling and diving, particularly around its thriving coral reefs. Beyond its natural beauty, the island is culturally diverse, shaped by African, European, and Latin American influences, reflected in its music, cuisine, and the local language, Papiamentu. Unlike many Caribbean destinations, Curaçao lies outside the hurricane belt, offering year-round sunny weather. Visitors also enjoy exploring its desert landscapes, historic forts, and lively street art. With its unique mix of history, culture, and nature, Curaçao offers a distinctive Caribbean experience that is both laid-back and cosmopolitan.

With its myriad hills and spectacular bay, San Francisco beguiles with natural beauty, vibrant neighborhoods, and contagious energy. From the hipster Mission District to the sassy Castro, from bustling Union Square to enduring Chinatown, this dynamic town thrives on variety. The city makes it wonderfully easy to tap into the good life, too: between San Francisco's hot arts scene, tempting boutiques, parks perfect for jogging or biking, and all those stellar locavore restaurants and cocktail bars, it's the ultimate destination for relaxed self-indulgence.
