On all cruises we set aside a number of cabins within each level at a discounted fare, with the highest discount of 35% for ocean cruises and 25% for river cruises available on selected levels. These cabins are sold on a first come, first served basis. As cabins are sold, the discount begins to reduce, and continues to reduce until those selected cabins are sold.
This means that the earlier you book, the higher the chance of securing a greater discount. Our price panels clearly show the full cruise price, along with the current discount fare.
Please note: During busy periods for holiday bookings, the early booking discount can reduce rapidly. We recommend that you book early to benefit from the best booking discounts and to secure your preferred cabin.
When promoting new cruises for the first time, we contact customers on our Advanced Registration list first, allowing then to secure the cabin of their choice and benefit from the best savings. Our brochures are then sent out to loyalty club members first, followed by past cruise goers and then everyone else.

Experience the natural charms of Ireland
Join this all-inclusive cruise to Ireland in 2026 to experience the vibrant culture and natural charms of the Emerald Isle.
In Galway stroll its cobbled streets to see the 16th-century Spanish Arch and Lynch’s Castle, and head to the shopping streets of the Latin Quarter and West End to experience the city’s lively atmosphere. Diminutive Killybegs has a rich maritime history and hosts one of Ireland’s largest fishing fleets. While a visit to Ringaskiddy offers the opportunity to explore the historic city of Cork, whose attractions include the 18th-century English Market, a covered food market.
This all-inclusive cruise is bookended by visits to Fowey, which is flanked by 14th-century blockhouses and overlooked by St Catherine’s Castle, and the thriving port town of Falmouth, both located on the scenic Cornish coast.
Included excursion in every port

The Cornish town of Fowey is located at the mouth of the River Fowey. Established well before the Norman invasion, it has been a major centre for trade throughout its history due to its natural harbour, which is flanked by 14th-century blockhouses and overlooked by St Catherine’s Castle. As the birthplace of novelist Dame Daphne du Maurier, the town has strong literary connections and holds an annual Du Maurier festival.

Galway proudly claimed a new title in 2020 as a ‘European City of Culture’. Its fortunes have ebbed and flowed since the 10th century, as detailed at the Galway City Museum. Well-worn cobbled streets, the 16th-century Spanish Arch and the gargoyle-decorated Lynch’s Castle further remind visitors of its colourful past. As a university city, Galway bustles with life, best experienced in the shopping streets of the Latin Quarter and the ‘craic’ of the pub-filled West End. Further afield, is the rolling green scenery of the Connemara district and sheer-sided Cliffs of Moher.

A visit to County Cork would not be complete without a visit to Blarney Castle with its famous stone. The 600-year-old castle sits amid 60 acres of gardens and parklands, including the poison garden, home to some of the world’s most dangerous and toxic plants. The Blarney Stone, located at the top of the castle tower, is said to give the gift of eloquence to those who kiss it.
