The breathtaking landscapes and timeless culture of Mongolia remain a mystery to most travellers, but Viking is about to change it. The cruise line has launched a five-day Spirit of Mongolia extension program, which travellers can experience just before or after one of Vikings' four newly launched cruises in China.
Not one to be left behind, Oceania Cruises has just revealed its 2025-2026 Tropics and Exotics Collection, too, with 135 itineraries to faraway lands - from Africa to Alaska - now on sale. Voyages range from seven- to 180-day cruises and visit 329 ports around the world. Meanwhile, plenty of action will soon unfold closer to our own shores, too, with Royal Caribbean announcing the arrival of two ships, Anthem of the Seas and Voyager of the Seas, in Australia just in time for the 2025-2026 summer season. A number of itineraries are on sale for both the vessels, but our heart is set on the 11-night New Zealand Holiday Cruise, which will depart Sydney on December 28, 2025, onboard Anthem of the Seas, which is coming to Australia for the first time. vikingcruises.com.au; oceaniacruises.com; royalcaribbean.com
