Luxury Cruise Ship on a Grand Voyage

Imagine waking up on a new continent every few weeks, crossing oceans in comfort, and coming home with stories from dozens of countries without ever packing a suitcase twice. A world cruise or grand voyage is the ultimate way to see the world, and with the right planning it can be the journey of a lifetime.

I’m Lisa Silva, Owner and travel advisor with Tin Fish Travel, a luxury cruise advisory specializing in ultra-luxury, luxury and premium cruising. My certifications include CLIA Certified Cruise Counsellor, Regent Seven Seas Master Certified, Silversea Certified Specialist,Seabourn Platinum Specialist, Cunard Commodore Certified, Viking Ocean Certified, Holland America Platinum Certified, Princess Commodore Certified and Celebrity Certified Specialist. Long voyages involve decisions and details that shorter cruises don’t, and I’ll guide you through every one.

THREE WAYS TO SEE THE WORLD

A full world cruise. Over 100 to 180 nights, these voyages circle the globe or sail a grand loop through several continents, typically departing in January from ports like Fort Lauderdale, Los Angeles, Southampton or Miami. They often include special events ashore, gala evenings and a close-knit onboard community.

A world cruise segment. Not ready for months at sea? Most world cruises can be booked in segments of three to six weeks, such as the South Pacific and Australia, Asia, the Indian Ocean, Africa or the Mediterranean. It’s a wonderful way to experience a world voyage on your own schedule.

A grand voyage. These 25- to 60-night itineraries explore one region in depth, such as a circumnavigation of South America, Africa or Australia, a journey through Asia, or an epic transpacific or transatlantic crossing. Back-to-back sailings can also be combined into a custom grand voyage.

THE CRUISE LINES I REPRESENT

Cunard, Holland America, Princess, Viking, Oceania, Regent Seven Seas, Silversea and Seabourn offer world cruises, segments and grand voyages, with Azamara, Celebrity and Explora Journeys offering extended voyages and longer itineraries.

Choices range from classic ocean liners and premium ships with a wide range of onboard activities to intimate all-inclusive luxury ships where the crew knows you by name.

HOW I HELP

Choosing the right voyage. Routes, ship size, onboard atmosphere, length and what’s included vary widely. I’ll help you compare world cruises, segments and grand voyages side by side and choose the one that fits your interests and budget.

Selecting the right suite. When a ship is your home for weeks or months, storage space, balcony size, location and amenities matter more than ever. I’ll help you choose accommodations you’ll love living in.

Understanding the extras. Many world cruises include perks such as business-class or economy air, gratuities, shore excursions, onboard credit, luggage delivery and exclusive events. I’ll explain exactly what’s included so you can compare the true value of each offer.

Handling the logistics. Long voyages require planning for visas, passports, travel insurance, medical needs, mail, luggage shipping and pre- and post-cruise stays. I coordinate the details so you can focus on the adventure ahead.
