- Petra, Jordan.
  Famously described as the rose-red city half as old as time, this UNESCO world heritage site is a must see. The mysterious city of Petra is concealed by craggy encircling mountains. From this natural fortress, the Nabateans commanded the trade routes from Arabia and the East, until the Romans conquered them in 106 AD. Cruises visiting Petra (from Aqaba)
- Tower of Belém, Portugal.
  Defending the port of Lisbon, the Tower of Belém was also built to commemorate the Portuguese explorer Vasco de Gama, the first European to reach India by sea. Along with the nearby Monastery of the Hieronymites, the Tower symbolises the pioneering role the Portuguese had in creating dialogue between cultures. Cruises visiting Lisbon
- Pompeii, Italy.
  Buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79, twenty feet of ashes and pumice stone covered Pompeii for almost 1,700 years. The baths and the theatres, the wrestling ground and the luxurious villas stand empty, yet there are many echoes of Pompeii's daily life; the wine jars are still set on the counter of the wine shop, the stepping stones are there to help you cross the street in the rainy season, and the mosaic floors and brilliant frescoes are a wonder to this very day. Cruises visiting Naples
- Sydney Opera House, Australia.
  Enjoy an evening opera performance at the world famous Sydney Opera House. Cruises visiting Sydney

- Te Wähipounamu, New Zealand.
  Encompassing Milford Sound, extending over 270 miles inland from the Tasman Sea, the park's dramatic landscape was sculpted by the pressure of the Earth's tectonic plates, then carved by the movement of glaciers that descended into temperate rainforest. The kea - the world's only alpine parrot - and many other unique species of flora and fauna have been protected by the isolation of this pristine habitat. Cruises visiting Milford Sound

  Dominica's National Park is home to the richest biodiversity in the Lesser Antilles. This volcanic region covers diverse habitats incorporating hot springs, freshwater lakes, lush valleys and steep mountainside tropical forests. Cruises visiting Dominica
