“We’re highly regarded for our World Cruises and our 2025 voyage promises to be one for the ages as our longest adventure ever offered,” said John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises. “Our expert itinerary planners have assembled an unmatched combination of popular ports and off-the-beaten-path locales for a global journey not found anywhere else.”
The cruise provides access to 27 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including historic Cairo and the pyramids and ancient treasures of Giza, the Singapore Botanical Gardens, the Old City of Dubrovnik, The Ancient Greek City of Ephesus, The Monastery of St. John, and the Cave of the Apocalypse. The journey includes an overnight stay in Dubai and 11 late-night calls for guests to enjoy exploring the old town of Cartagena, shopping in Casablanca, or experiencing the nightlife in Sydney. Guests can also take optional shore excursions to discover the Hypogeum of Hal Saflieni, Malta’s oldest underground temple and necropolis, wander the District of the Roman Forum in Cartagena, Spain, or stand in awe before Leonardo da Vinci’s magnificent The Last Supper in Milan, Italy.
