Step aboard or stow away: just make sure you set sail this year!

Sailing is a 2024 Trend already (yes, it deserves bold font and a capital ‘T’, it’s that in Vogue).

And frankly, we’re here for it. A sailing holiday is, in our opinion, one of the best holidays you can take. What’s not to love about a luxurious floating hotel, with private staff, incredible food, changing view, and a private speedboat for transfers?

We’ve interpreted ‘sailing’ in the broad sense of being at sea.

So whether you want to sun yourself in Greece, sail through fantasy-lands in Vietnam, cruise the River Nile in style or spot icebergs and glaciers in Patagonia, make sure you set sail with Fleewinter in 2024.

MALDIVES

Cruising around the Maldives islands gives you the chance to see so much more than most tourists who see nothing but the airport and their resort. Set your own itinerary in collaboration with the expert crew, and take full advantage of the most current information.

Surf season in the Maldives? Chase those waves! Manta migration time? Head that way! Stop at private islands for a beach BBQ, snorkel and scuba, fish off the back of the boat, the choice is yours, and you can even combine nights on the boat with a resort stay if you want the best of both worlds.

BAJA CALIFORNIA MEXICO

Spend 7-nights in the Sea of Cortez on a round-trip from San Jose del Cabo, embarking in La Paz, and visiting remote islands. Stocked with supplies and a bountiful sense of adventure, the Baja cruise follows Steinbeck’s path into the protected waters of Cousteau’s “world’s aquarium.” Active exploration and a menagerie of wildlife await. View your favourite whales throughout your trip from grey whales to whale sharks, visiting them in their natural habitat or watching from the bow.If you want to travel later in the season there are opportunities for orca and mobula watching.

Prices start from £2,500 per person based on 2 people sharing a cabin aboard the Safari Voyager (including all meals and activities whilst aboard and transfers to and from the airport).

PATAGONIA CRUISE

Expedition cruising is the best way to reach the remotest corners of the world.

Think small ships with only few hundred passengers, twice daily excursions led by the best guides in their field, and interesting lectures by experts. Of course you’ll still enjoy an all inclusive treatment and first class hospitality on board – while cruising one of the most undiscovered yet iconic areas of our planet. It’s cruising, but not as you know it.
