Three for Tuesday: Something a bit different for solo cruisers
Not decided on whether you want a bit of sun or to see something incredible? Want both? Or do you just want an experience of a lifetime? That’s not too much to ask for now, is it?
These three voyages are for those who are prepared to think a little outside the box. For those that have the time, money and inclination, some cruise lines offer up segments of a world cruise – just in case you aren’t able to commit to over 100-days at sea.
Following on from the publication of Cruise Adviser’s Ex-UK 2015 guide, we would like to introduce our new weekly Three for Tuesday feature, which gives you three cruise options to choose from. This week it’s ex-UK trips for solo cruisers who say ‘just surprise me’.
