LUXURY CRUISE COLLECTION

In a world of identikit ships and mass-market experiences, it is highly comforting to know there is still a choice of distinction and quality which remains the preserve of the ultra-sophisticated and super-discerning.

The World is a true individual, an unpretentious yet glamorous ship of modest dimensions, with all the finest facilities and superlative service carefully integrated into its unique design of private ownership and guest accommodations.

Experience Excellence is the simple promise of their urbane allure, and it is one they deliver with sumptuous ease, courtesy of outstanding apartments (both privately owned and rented out to visiting guests), exceptional cuisine (delivered by four signature, gourmet-quality restaurants) and astounding facilities (witness their golf club simulator and sensational World Spa by Banyan Tree).

And The World is a genuine global traveller, taking in the likes of Sydney and St Tropez, Hong Kong and Honolulu on a distinctive trek that rarely visits the same place twice - or offers a less-than-refined experience while you are there.
