Shake off the winter chill with a slice of European sunshine

There’s plenty to love about winter in NZ. But there’s definitely something to be said about breaking the chill with a slice of European sunshine. Showcasing history, culture and impossibly beautiful scenery, Voyages to Antiquity is your ticket to summer in the northern hemisphere. And next season, the line is setting the bar high with a pair of destination rich itineraries, and an award-winning ship that is perfect for European waters.

Great things come in small packages
A cruise with Voyages to Antiquity is proof that the best things really do come in small packages. Carrying an average of just 350 passengers, the Aegean Odyssey is tasteful, intimate and classically elegant. Onboard, the atmosphere is the perfect blend of refined and relaxed. Think a floppy sun hat and jandals by day, followed by a quick outfit change before sunset cocktails in the Charleston Lounge

Unlike her towering counterparts, the Aegean Odyssey is effortlessly suited for both coastal and river cruising. This means she can sail into popular Mediterranean ports, as well as navigate inland waterways like Spain’s Guadalquivir River. For you, this unlocks a unique combination of ocean and river cruising and means you get to experience Europe from every angle.

Plus, accompanying you on each cruise are celebrated guest speakers, handpicked by the line. From historians to archaeologists, they’re on hand to enrich your journey with informative lectures and entertaining talks.

European Connoisseur – departs 9 June 2018 (17 days)
Setting sail from sun-drenched Seville, this European Connoisseur cruise winds its way along some of Europe’s most scenic waterways.

Grand Circumnavigation of Britain & Iceland – departs 5 July 2018 (32 days)
Birthplace of Shakespeare, The Beatles and English Breakfast tea, Great Britain is nothing short of mighty. It deserves an itinerary that does it justice, which is why Voyages of Antiquity has put together a 32 day sailing that combines its maiden circumnavigation of the British Isles with Iceland’s gushing geysers, rumbling volcanoes and sparkling glaciers.

For a limited time only, House of Travel is offering ‘fly free’ packages on selected sailings that make Europe more accessible than ever. You’ll be treated to Free flights, which means your only expense will be the cruise itself, plus spending.
