CHRISTMAS & NEW YEAR Jason says:
CRUISE COLLECTION  Ditch the stress of Christmas and leave

washing-up worries behind
 Make a new tradition and take the family away

for something new
 Many ports of call offer world-class fireworks at

New Years Eve & enjoy ‘front row seats’

As the evenings draw in and the mercury drops, thoughts start to turn towards Cruise ships near Copacabana, Rio for New Years Eve fireworks
the busy Christmas period. We’ve picked a small selection from the hundreds
of options available if you’re looking to leave these shores and do something
different this year.

Expect all of the Festive traditions but with none of the work. Just imagine what
a difference this could make to your holiday; get up and not have to consider
meal preparation, laying a table, clearing up and so on, not to mention the busy
supermarkets in the run-up to the big day. Instead, you can board knowing that
every need will be catered for and that you’ll potentially be making a new family
tradition that will be so popular it will last for years to come.

New Years Eve is also a great time to be at sea; many port cities around the world
put on enormous firework displays. Funchal, Madeira is notable within Europe
with many cruise ships converging to offer their lucky guests prime viewing of
the lengthy display. Further afield, New York, Singapore, Dubai, Rio de Janeiro &
Sydney are in the ‘top tier’ of great places to celebrate the end of a year and the
start of a new one to come.
