Experience Europe with its magnificent capital cities and landmarks. A European cruise has something for everybody.

Two, three, four and seven-night sailings from the UK to the Continent, Channel Islands and Ireland are an ideal way for first-time cruisers in particular to get a feel for cruising while visiting some of the most exciting places in Europe.

Sights of Europe

Destination-based cruises such as these can be as relaxing or as busy as you wish to make them.

There is always ample time spent in port for sightseeing, or you can stay on board and make the most of the numerous passenger facilities available from spas and sports courts to cafes and bars.

Bruges, famous for its chocolate making, Amsterdam for its wonderful waffles, Cork for a pint of Murphy’s or Beamish, Guernsey for its seafood and Le Havre for excursions to Paris are among the easy to reach destinations on a cruise mini-break from Southampton. Some even allow for an overnight stay in port to allow for in-depth destination exploration.

Western France, northern Spain, Portugal, Germany and Norway also feature in short break cruises of up to seven days in duration.

The great thing about cruising in Europe is the amazing mix of cultures to be experienced on a single sailing.

Two-night party cruises are the perfect way to indulge in the big cruise ship experience without breaking the bank. For example, there are regular trips from Southampton to Zeebrugge for a day in Bruges, home of some the oldest bars in Belgium and famous for its chocolate making.

It is also possible to combine a day and evening in Amsterdam with Bruges on a three-night itinerary or Bruges, Amsterdam and Le Havre on a four-night break. There are even short cruises to famous Christmas markets in Germany.
