Alaska
Cruisetours
The best Alaska vacations combine a sensational Princess cruise with an
equally memorable adventure on land. Travel to Denali National Park aboard
Alaska's top-rated luxury train, Princess' own Midnight
Sun Express. Overnight in one of three exclusive Princess Wilderness
Lodges. Go fishing for salmon, see migrating caribou or Kodiak Bears,
visit Arctic Eskimo villages.
Our "Heart
of Alaska" and "Alaska Wilderness" cruisetours are a great
way to get a glimpse of life in Alaska's major population
settlements--Anchorage and Fairbanks. With overnight hotel stays in both
cities you'll have time to shop, sightsee and enjoy life as it is lived on
the frontier.
"Alaska
Wilderness/Explorer" Cruisetours include our best options for
wildlife viewing and unique opportunities to cross the Arctic Circle and
learn about native culture. These vacations include hotel stays in or
visits to Prudhoe Bay, Nome, Coldfoot and Kotzebue.
For a journey
into the past, our "Yukon Gold Rush" cruisetours offer a chance
to visit Skagway and Dawson City, well known for their major gold strikes
and turn-of-the-century atmosphere. Tok, one of Alaska's headquarters for
dog mushing, is a great place to see a dog sled demonstration.
Canada/New
England
Finding history and culture in your own backyard is easy when you
join us for an enchanting cruise along the eastern seaboard of North
America.
New England offers so many chances to step into the past, to see how life
was lived by turn-of-the-century millionaires, to experience rugged
seashores, picturesque lighthouses on cliffs overlooking quiet coves.
Our cruises are perfectly timed during the autumn season for the east
coast's spectacular Fall Foliage display. Everywhere you go you'll be
amazed with the crimson and gold leaves that make the forests come alive.
And who can resist an authentic New England lobster bake in Maine, a
stroll along Boston's Freedom Trail, a tour of Newport's mansions, plus
visits to Saint John, New Brunswick, Halifax, Nova Scotia and more?
This fabulous 10-day cruise also spotlights the cosmopolitan flair of
French Quebec. In Quebec City, visit the Latin Quarter, the Hotel
Frontenac, and experience the scenery of Montmorency Falls or the
Laurentian Mountains.
In Montreal, your overnight stay lets you explore the city, enjoy a
Medieval banquet, or fly over the Laurentian Mountains to see the Fall
color.
Coastal
Cruise
You don't have to have a lot of time to have a great time with
Princess. In spring and fall of every year, we offer a series of Love Boat
Sampler Coastal Cruises which offer the unique opportunity to spend three
to five days sailing the western coast of North America between Los
Angeles and Vancouver, British Columbia.
Depending on
your itinerary, ports may include San Diego for the famed San Diego Zoo,
Sea World, and Mission Bay; San Francisco for Fisherman's Wharf, Golden
Gate Park, and Chinatown; Seattle for Farmer's Market, Seattle Center, and
Pioneer Square.
You could also get a taste of England in Victoria. Here flowers are
everywhere, especially in world-famous Butchart Gardens, and the double
decker buses and Victorian-style Empress Hotel give an old world ambience
that's hard to resist.
With the cosmopolitan city of Vancouver, from Stanley Park and Gastown to
Granville Island, the adventure is complete.
Mexico
The Mexican Riviera is a land of lush mountain jungles, quaint
fishing villages and chic seaside resorts. Enjoy the rugged scenery of
Cabo San Lucas. Go for marlin in Mazatlan, the sportfishing capital of the
world. And take home great catches from the chic shops in Puerto Vallarta.
Zihuatanejo is well-known for its tranquil, tropical beauty. Neighboring
Ixtapa is a stunning resort with 24 miles of white sandy beach. And
Acapulco spotlights the cliff divers of La Quebrada, the glamorous
boutiques of downtown and the crafts of native markets and more. All on
7-day cruises between Los Angeles and Acapulco or 10-day cruises roundtrip
from Los Angeles.
Panama
Canal
When it opened in 1914, the Panama Canal was considered an amazing
feat of engineering acclaimed the world over as one of mankind's greatest
triumphs. It has stood the test of time.
Today, it is held in awe as one of the wonders of the modern world--a
place of serene natural beauty as well as political and commercial
importance.
Before the dream of a Pacific-Atlantic canal could be realized, a
nine-mile trough was blasted through the Continental Divide, a river was
dammed to created one of the world's largest man-made lakes, and massive
locks were engineered and built. The cost was $387 million and thousands
of lives.
To experience a Panama Canal passage is one of life's great travel
adventures. Princess offers more ways to enjoy the journey than any other
cruise line going. And all itineraries include fascinating ports in
Mexico, the Caribbean, South America and more.
Sail for 10 or 11 days between Acapulco and San Juan for the full transit
on Classic Panama Canal cruises. For the convenience of cruising roundtrip
from Florida, choose our 10-day Roundtrip Panama Canal itinerary. More
time? Princess offers a wealth of cruises from 10 to 28 days.
South
America
There is something for everyone in South America, from the
electrifying beat of Rio de Janeiro to the rugged beauty of land's end in
Tierra del Fuego.
Join us as we
follow Charles Darwin's route of discovery through the Strait of Magellan,
around the tip of the continent at Cape Horn and onward toward Chile.
You'll marvel at the glaciers that line the spectacular Beagle Channel;
the penguins that inhabit Puerto Madryn; and the spectacular beauty of
places like Torres del Paine National Park.
Choose an Andes/South America adventure and experience Machu Picchu, Lima
and Pisco in Peru, Quito in Ecuador, Arica and La Serena in Chile and
Cartagena in Colombia.
The Amazon River is just as thrilling and we offer this adventure on two
different itineraries. Combine the Amazon with Devil's Island and Trinidad
or with Rio, Montevideo and Buenos Aires. The choice is yours.
For naturalists, sun-worshippers, history buffs, photography enthusiasts,
bird-watchers, and shoppers, South America is a land of endless
possibilities.
South
Pacific & Tahiti Hawaii
If there were heaven on earth, few places would come closer than
the idyllic islands of Hawaii and French Polynesia. Their names alone are
filled with beauty and romance.
Tahiti is the
place that inspired the artist Gauguin and the mutiny on the
"Bounty." Bora Bora and Moorea were the backdrop for Michener's
"Tales of the South Pacific." With Princess, you too will find
your "Bali-Hi" on soft-sand beaches lined with graceful palms.
The islands of Hawaii are equally spectacular with crystal-clear waters
filled with technicolor fishes and coral gardens. The world's highest
mountain when measured from the seabed, the wettest spot on earth, the
most active volcano, and the highest sea cliffs are all a part of the
drama of Hawaii.
Princess' "Adventures Ashore" make good use of the myriad of
things to see and do. You can join a golf excursion on every Hawaiian isle
plus try your hand at kayaking, snorkeling, scuba diving, and sailing.
Sightsee by glass-bottom boat or helicopter. Try the hula and ride in an
outrigger canoe. Visit a Polynesian village and shop for exotic island
wares. Tahiti and Hawaii offer great food, unforgettable sights, friendly
people and fabulous souvenirs.
Northern
Europe
Whether you like to sightsee, shop or take in spectacular natural
scenery, Princess knows the best places to visit in Northern Europe. You
can sail across the Arctic Circle, tour a working windmill, explore a
Viking warship, and have lunch in an Irish pub.
Princess will also take you to Baltic Republics formerly hidden behind the
Iron Curtain. In fact, we were the first cruise line to sail to Estonia,
Latvia and Poland and we're still leading the way.
We know the best time to sail to the northern latitudes as well. During
the long, languid days of summer, when the sun barely sets, everyone comes
outdoors to celebrate.
Flowers and festivals burst upon the scene and people stroll arm-in-arm
along city promenades. In St. Petersburg, Russia, for instance, this
enchanting time of year is called the "White Nights" making for
an extra-special visit.
Princess is so enamored with this part of the world, we even sail as far
north as Greenland and Iceland, offering a travel experience that the
frequent traveler will appreciate for its unique and exclusive
opportunities.
Mediterranean
Do you dream of Venice, Rome and Monte Carlo? Are you intrigued by
Malta and Morocco? Or are you drawn to Lisbon, Paris and Seville? Wherever
your imagination wanders, Princess has the Mediterranean cruise that's
right for you.
You can marvel
at the Duomo of Florence or the Leaning Tower of Pisa. See the Sistine
Chapel and the Colosseum in Rome. Join the jet-set in Monaco or Portofino.
Bargain for carpets in Istanbul. And experience more history and culture
in two weeks than most people do in a lifetime.
Princess knows the Mediterranean better than any other major cruise line
and it shows in the variety of our itineraries and the quality of our
optional shore excursions.
Just think of the people you'll meet: snake charmers and fire-eaters in
Marrakech, fishermen and sponge sellers in Greece, British bobbies in
Gibraltar, street artists in Florence; and the adventures you'll share.
Bermuda
You may have heard that Bermuda is one of the most beautiful
places on earth, but until you've seen it for yourself you'll never know
how true that assessment really is.
Yes, the sand is pink, the water is an unearthly shade of turquoise, the
sky is almost unfailingly blue, and the light is nothing short of
ethereal.
Bermudans have built their houses in a quaint stepped roof style and
painted them in every hue of the rainbow so that the sun can light them up
in technicolor. And that's just part of the island's charm.
Princess offers seven-day Bermuda cruises with an exclusive itinerary
designed to give you the best of paradise.
Three fascinating ports--St. George, Hamilton and the Naval Dockyard, are
the starting points for tours all over the island. Explore the Botanical
Gardens, the Aquarium, the Natural History Museum, the Brewery and more.
Enjoy the sights on the sea and below it by glassbottom boat, sea kayak,
fishing boat, scuba gear, and sailboat. The historic evening stroll of St.
George's, lit by the lantern of the Town Crier, is just one of several
special nighttime events.
Europe & Holy Land
To visit the Holy Land is a privilege travelers have sought for
hundreds of years. Now it's your turn. Come with us to Egypt and see for
yourself the glories of the ancient pharoahs.
In Jerusalem, witness the pages of the Bible coming to life. In Athens,
walk in the footsteps of those who planted the seeds of western culture.
In Turkey, open your eyes to a way of life so different from your own.
You can ponder the riddle of the Sphinx, ride a camel near Cairo, explore
the labyrinthine Palace of Knossos, an archaeological wonder built 4,000
years ago, and tour the beautifully preserved ruins of Ephesus, with its
early Christian sites.
Princess offers departures also featuring the charming Greek islands of
Rhodes and Santorini. Travel to the Holy Land with Princess even during
the holidays, when the region's revered religious sites take on even
greater significance.
World
Cruises & Grand Adventures
A world cruise has always been the ultimate travel adventure. But
like any vacation, it's not just where you journey that matters, but how.
Princess
Cruises, a company that has been offering premium one and two week cruises
for over 30 years, also features extended Grand Adventures and World
Cruises of up to 67 leisurely days.
Imagine enjoying Personal Choice diningsm, entertainment and service plus
as many as twenty ports around the world. Think of the people you'll meet,
the experiences you'll have and the memories you'll bring home as you sail
to wonders on nearly every continent.
World Cruises depart in Spring and Fall and feature sights like the
Acropolis in Athens, the Pyramids of Egypt, the Great Barrier Reef of
Australia, the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Town, South Africa and much,
much more.
Grand Adventures allow you to combine cruises for extended vacations and
great values. You can circumnavigate the continent of South America for 56
days, combine the lands down under and the Orient for 33 days and travel
the continent of Africa for up to 44 days. There are so many options the
world is your oyster with Princess.
India
& Africa
"Safari" is the Swahili word for adventure and that's
just what we have in store for you: in South Africa and Kenya amidst the
teeming wildlife, blazing sunsets and endless plains; in Western Africa,
between the Skeleton Coast and the Ivory Coast and in the mysterious
Voodoo culture of Togo and Benin.
Nothing could be
more exotic or more intriguing than a journey through the storied
continent of Africa. On 11-day cruises between Cape Town and Mombasa,
you'll catch a glimpse of what makes South Africa one of the most
beautiful countries on earth.
In Cape Town, take the cable car to the top of Table Mountain, walk to the
tip of Cape Hope, see the penguins, the wine country, and experience a
people awakening from the darkness of apartheid.
This is a highlight of a cruise that includes East London and Durban for
more South African flavors. With Zanzibar in Tanzania and Mombasa in
Kenya, you'll never forget the beauty of Africa.
African Explorer cruises trace the western coast of Africa. This exclusive
adventure takes you from Cape Town to Namibia, Benin, Togo, Ghana, Abdijan,
Dakar, Casablanca, Tunis and Malta.
Orient
& Asia
Famed throughout history as the source of silks and spices, jewels
and jade, the Orient is legendary and Princess is the cruise line to show
it to you. We know the most intriguing antiquities, the most magnificent
temples, the most fascinating islands and the best places to shop. And we
combine adventures in China's Forbidden City, Beijing, with ports of call
in Southeast Asia, Japan, Korea, Russia, the Aleutian Islands and even
Australia. Just take your pick of itineraries and learn about the customs
and cultures of some of the most exotic places in the world.
Australia
& New Zealand
Join us in the lands down under on a two-week Australia/New
Zealand cruise. We'll have you golfing with the locals, exploring a Maori
village, watching a sheep-shearing and visiting a Scottish castle. You can
even try fly fishing, wine tasting and shopping for everything from Maori
crafts to British imports.
There's no end to the things to see and do. Tour the Opera House in Sydney
and take in the views from Macquarie's Chair. Explore Melbourne's
countryside via vintage steam train or visit a cattle station. In Hobart,
the capital of Tasmania, you can join a pub hop or enjoy Devonshire Tea.
In the North and South Islands of New Zealand, the adventures are as rich
and varied as the scenery is breathtaking. North Island ports like
Auckland, the Bay of Islands and Tauranga, where geysers and mud pots make
a thrilling display, introduce you to kiwi hospitality and Maori culture.
On the South Island, you'll visit everything from the windy city of
Wellington, to British Christchurch, Scottish Dunedin and more. With a
