Travelscope is offering a three-month world cruise in a luxury liner, for that trip of a lifetime

There are few experiences more aspirational than a world cruise, a global voyage following in the footsteps of famous explorers and travellers throughout the ages.

Leave the cold, bleak British winter behind and embark on a journey to a wonderful world of shimmering seas, glorious sunshine and sensational sunsets.

During your 93-day cruise you'll savour a myriad of once-in-a-lifetime experiences, never to be forgotten.

Soak up the sun on a pristine Caribbean beach, go snorkelling in Bora Bora's multi-coloured lagoon and admire the fantastic scenery along the Panama Canal.

Keep an eye out for dolphins as you pass the beautiful Bay of Islands, view the smouldering volcano at the heart of Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean and sample the wonderful fusion of cultures in Cape Verde in the North Atlantic.

There are also visits to some of the world's most impressive cities including Auckland in New Zealand; Sydney, Australia; and Cape Town, South Africa. This is just a taste of the wonders that await you.

We have specially selected the Dutch-owned MV Van Gogh, pictured, for this wonderful World Cruise. Its a firm favourite with the British market, having already taken tens of thousands of travellers to experience some of the world's greatest treasures.

At nearly 16,000 tonnes, the Van Gogh is large enough to feature all the modern amenities you would expect from a luxury cruise liner, yet small enough to ensure an intimate, friendly atmosphere on board.

Enjoy red carpet treatment on the deep blue sea, with attentive crew and experienced Travelscope staff on hand to help, advise and cater to your every need.

With prices starting from just £2,999 for 93 days - and with convenient coach travel available from pick-up points throughout South Wales - this is your chance to treat yourself to that holiday of a lifetime that few have previously been lucky enough (or wealthy enough) to savour.

To book, phone 0871 22 0212, or even visit our Newport offices, where our friendly staff will be happy to help you and share experiences of their time on board the MV Van Gogh.
