“

Birthdays are particularly enjoyable to have on the Ship, because if you request it, a chef will prepare your favorite meal – even better than you can. My grandmother used to make Chicken Paprikash. The chef prepared the recipe and even enhanced it! It was like I went back in time 20 years.”

One of the leading authorities on large marine mammals came onboard and had lunch with us.

JOURNEY

Exploration without limits, a voyage without end.

Your experience is beyond any mere vacation or luxury tour. The World brings you on an incomparable Journey, with over 120 landings each year at cultural capitals, enchanting harborside villages, and secluded isles of idyllic beauty. Across every ocean and on each continent, you’ll be taught and led by preeminent experts and knowledgeable insiders, creating an unmatched depth of exploration and understanding. You’ll take part in Expeditions — unique multipart adventures

that bring Residents on once-in-a-lifetime experiences along the planet’s most storied and untamed shores. Average stays of three days in each port allow time to truly experience what each location has to offer. No matter the port, the Ship’s handcrafted Destination Experiences make sure your time — be it on colossal glaciers, in ancient palaces, at desert oases, or behind closed doors at museums, wineries, and art galleries — is unhurried, indulgent, and unforgettable.

“

In Mauritius we knew we’d be diving amongst some of the planet’s most breathtaking coral reefs. On our dives, we encountered three beautiful and extremely rare species of leaf scorpionfish — just one of our many once-ina-lifetime experiences aboard The World. ”

Mauritius Antarctic Expedition

“

In Antarctica, we slid down an ice shield, where a crowd of king penguins was waiting for us, as was our crew – with hot cocoa for everyone.

After the reef dive, we returned to the Ship and invited a small group of friends over for a casual ‘Sunday Supper.’ It was a delightful evening with lots of laughs, and it became a tradition for us.”
