🚢 Big changes are coming to the cruise world…

Two much-loved cruise ships are set for new chapters in 2029.

👑 Queen Anne will leave Cunard and join the P&O Cruises fleet, sailing under a brand-new name — which, for now, is still a mystery! 👀

⚓️ Meanwhile, Arcadia will leave P&O Cruises after her final season, with her last sailing ending on 21 August 2029, before transferring to Holland America Line.

01/10/2026

I have now created a new page dedicated to Expedition cruise and travel if this is something you are interested or know someone that would be interested in joining please join via the link below.

🌍 Welcome to my new Expedition Cruise & Travel page! 🛳️

Wow… what a fantastic day down in London yesterday at the Expedition Cruise Network Conference, learning all about this incredible side of travel.

And that’s exactly why I’ve set up this page! ❤️

So welcome! Please share the page or invite any friends and family you think might be interested in discovering a different kind of travel. 🌍

Expedition cruising isn't just about the Arctic & Antarctica.

It’s about going beyond the usual tourist trail, getting closer to nature, discovering different cultures and reaching places that larger ships simply can’t.

Think expedition cruising is just for serious adventurers?

Think again… 😉

It can be for:

🐢 Wildlife lovers
📸 Photographers
🥾 Active adventurers
🌎 Culture seekers
🎨 Artists who want to paint and sketch incredible landscapes
🧳 Solo travellers
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Multi-generational families
❤️ Couples looking for a special adventure
🌍 Or simply anyone who wants to see somewhere completely different.

And I’ve seen this first-hand.

When I travelled to the Galápagos Islands, there were 11 children on board our expedition ship. They weren't just passengers — they were learning, exploring and getting involved with everything around them.

They worked with the National Geographic team, went wildlife spotting, kayaked, learnt how to drive a Zodiac and even received awards at the end of the trip. 🐢🦭🦎

It was absolutely fabulous to watch them learn, gain confidence and interact with everyone onboard. ❤️

And that's what I love about expedition travel — every trip is different.

Some are all about wildlife.
Some about culture and history.
Some about adventure.
Some about photography.
And some are simply about getting away from the crowds and experiencing somewhere extraordinary.

I'm here to help you find the right expedition for YOU. 🌍🛳️

Whether you're completely new to expedition travel or already have your next adventure in mind, get in touch.

And don't forget to follow, share and invite your friends who you think might love discovering the world this way. ❤️
