WORLD CRUISES

Can’t make up your mind where in the world to go? Why not tackle the whole lot? Early in the new year some half a dozen ships will circumnavigate the globe, each taking about three months and scooping up 30 to 40 ports of call along the way. These hugely popular voyages are the marathons of the cruising world. Go with
