Sail from the UK

Cruising from the UK instantly removes the hassle of crowded airports, flight delays, missing bags and tight baggage weight restrictions and with extensive free parking usually available at UK ports, your holiday starts as soon as you step on board. You can literally drive right up to the ship, check into your cabin and be relaxing before you even set sail. And with most cruises from the UK starting with a day or two at sea it's the perfect way to settle in to your holiday.

In 2008, over 600,00 people took a cruise which sailed from a UK port and in response to this growing demand, several cruise lines are increasing the number of ex-UK itineraries in their cruise programmes more and more every year. From the UK you can cruise around the British Isles, Channel Islands and Ireland or further a field to the Mediterranean, Canary Islands, Baltics, Norway, Iceland, the Caribbean, Transatlantic and round-the-world. UK ports include Southampton, Dover, Greenock, Harwich, Leith, Liverpool, London, Newcastle, Portsmouth, Rosyth and Tilbury.
