The world's longest cruise has been launched: tourists will spend 371 days on the journey

The company Explorations by Norwegian has launched a 371-day cruise around the world.

It is reported that all spots for this year's inaugural voyage are fully booked, but those wishing to travel next year will be able to choose from itineraries lasting from 8 to 371 days. The journey is planned to start from Australia.

During the round-the-world trip, passengers will visit 220 ports. At the same time, the organizers promise that repeat stops will be kept to a minimum and services will be provided on an "all-inclusive" basis.

"Whether you are an experienced traveler looking for novelty and the extraordinary, or someone ready to embark on your first major journey, Explorations by Norwegian invites you to discover the world in your own unique style," the cruise company's website states.

The 2026 world cruise will last a total of 371 days and has already begun from Rome. Next year's cruise will be slightly shorter — 367 days, and it will be possible to depart in February. The itinerary covers dozens of countries and famous tourist destinations.

In Europe, passengers can visit Naples, Copenhagen, and Helsinki, among others. The African leg of the route will allow travelers to realize their dreams of popular destinations such as Cape Verde, Cape Town, and Zanzibar. Alaska, Japan, and Greece are also included in the list of stops.

The round-the-world journey will be carried out on the Regatta liner, which has 348 cabins. Onboard the ship, passengers can expect a fine dining restaurant, a SPA center, and a swimming pool. In addition, guests can use a modern fitness center, a library, and a stylish bar.

For those who do not wish to spend more than a year at sea, the company offers shorter itineraries. The price for the full round-the-world cruise starts at 75 thousand dollars.
