Longest world cruises on offer
Upmarket all-inclusive cruise firm Vista is taking bookings for their inaugural 197-day World Odyssey cruise in 2026, which will visit over 100 ports across 43 countries, and be the longest world cruise on offer.
Viking Cruises also hosts a world cruise, which sails for 163 days.
In December 2023, Royal Caribbean went viral on social media when their nine-month cruise kicked off, which people said had "real life reality show" potential.
"It's evident that luxury travellers are placing more value on their time than ever before, seeking out exhilarating and bucket list destinations on long, lingering voyages that discover contrasting cultures, compelling histories, and tantalising cuisines," said Jason Montague, Chief Luxury Officer for Regent Seven Seas Cruises.
