A European cruise is a “once in a lifetime” chance to experience a classic transatlantic journey, promising great memories of spectacular places - the wild beauty of Newfoundland - the unspoiled arctic landscape of Greenland - the volcanic coast of Iceland - the fiords and quaint coastal towns of Norway.
Transatlantic cruises to Europe are a great way to connect to the golden age of cruising where such voyages became prestigious social events complete with dancing, drinking, and plenty of famous faces. Embarking on such a voyage today lets you experience the timeless quality of a transatlantic cruise with all the creature comforts you can wish for.
From Boston there is a classic and much loved Holland America Cruise with the 35 and 17 Night Voyage of the Vikings. Additionally there is a Royla Caribbean roundtrip cruise to Greenland and Newfoundland. Just a short hop from Boston, there are over 40 transatlantic cruises from New York offered by major cruise lines such as Cunard Line, Norwegian Cruise Line, Viking, Princess, Oceania, and others .
The itineraries of these cruises vary and so do the number of stops on the way. For example, the Cunard 8 Night Eastbound Transatlantic Crossing from New York is a pure ocean voyage with no stops and 8 nights at sea. This comes closest to a classic ship journey between New York and Southampton England. On the other side of the spectrum are longer cruises, such as the the 35 Night Voyage of the Vikings with 22 stops and 11 days at sea.
