Looking to plan a holiday that’s full of sun, beautiful destinatio­ns and glamour? A new luxury Canaries cruise could tick all of those boxes.

Imagine Cruising’s new 14-night Ultimate Cunard Canaries Sailcation not only boasts an itinerary packed with sun-soaked hotspots, but passengers will also be treated to some dazzling entertainm­ent.

Think exclusive performanc­es by West End star Michael Ball, an interview with TV icon Eamonn Holmes, performanc­es by

Britain’s Got Talent winner Paul Potts, and a celebratio­n of all things ABBA courtesy of parody pop group Björn Again.

Cunard’s regal Queen Elizabeth cruise ship will provide the luxurious setting, complete with perks such as White Star Service, fine dining, gala balls and a luxurious spa.

Staterooms and suites boast king-sized beds with plush bedding, nightly turndown service and a seven-pillow menu.

There’s plenty to explore onboard too from the plethora of restaurant­s serving everything from fine dining to classic pub fare, to the Royal Arcade with its shop-lined promenade.

As for the itinerary? Get ready for plenty of bucket list-worthy destinatio­ns.

Departing from Southampto­n, the ship will sail to Madeira’s vibrant capital Funchal, where passengers will have an overnight stay (on the ship) with plenty of time to explore highlights such as the Botanical Gardens.

Then it’s time to head to three Canary Islands – Tenerife, Gran Canaria and Lanzarote – where golden beaches, dramatic volcanic landscapes and an abundance of marine life await.

Other highlights include a trip to Spain’s Cadiz, famed for its tapas and flamenco, followed by Portuguese capital Lisbon where you’ll find historic buildings and a vibrant atmosphere.
