Nine cruise lines are featured in Mundy Cruising’s latest brochure, the ‘Grand Voyage Experience’ launched this month by the luxury travel specialist.

What better way to escape the long, dreary British winter, than to choose a long cruise to sunnier climes - an adventure either on a Grand Voyage, or World Cruise. A cruise ship provides a perfect vehicle for exploring the world in style; and to ‘test the water’, cruise lines also sensibly breakdown full world cruise programmes into the option of shorter sectors.

The benefits of long cruises include the range of destinations and cultures visited and on board the opportunity to take part in all the onboard activities and entertainment, or just relax with like-minded, fellow passengers. Full World Cruisers are privy to many special benefits, ranging from free business class flights and private transfers, to unique shore-side events

Says Edwina Lonsdale, Mundy Cruising Managing Director: “We are experiencing a huge surge in demand for cruises in excess of 40 days, whether sectors of a World Cruise, the full World Cruise in its entirety, or several cruises booked back to back. We appreciate a 100-day voyage is not everyone’s choice, so we have broken down these voyages into more manageable combinations.

“Whilst 2010 may seem a long way ahead, to secure the right itinerary and preferred choice of accommodation, we do recommend planning and booking months in advance.”

Travellers booking World Cruise and longer voyages through Mundy Cruising can also benefit from exclusive Mundy Carte Blanche services, designed to enhance and personalise the cruise experience for clients.  These include:

** Private Tours: bookable in advance and allowing Mundy passengers to avoid travelling with crowds. At ports round the world Mundy Carte Blanche has teamed up with knowledgeable guides and suppliers to ensure a first-class private tour service, in private-air conditioned transport.

** Private Luggage Delivery: Imagine the pleasure of setting off from home to join a cruise carrying only hand luggage. This service ensures all luggage is picked up in advance from the home address and delivered first-class by Fed-Ex direct to the hotel or cruise ship.
