Launch of the Grand Voyage Collection
Atlas Ocean Voyages announced the Grand Voyage Collection, a programme of sixteen Extended Journeys that will sail across Europe and the Arctic during 2027 and 2028. The concept links two or three consecutive cruises into one uninterrupted holiday, allowing guests to remain on the same ship while visiting multiple regions.
2027 itineraries across the Mediterranean and the North
The 2027 schedule includes six Mediterranean Extended Journeys ranging from 16 to 25 nights. Highlights are a 17‑night sail from Las Palmas to Nice starting 15 April, a 23‑night voyage from Málaga on 23 April, and a 22‑night cruise from Naples on 9 May. Northern routes feature a 25‑night Lisbon‑to‑Fredrikstad sailing beginning 7 May and an 18‑night Reykjavík‑to‑Longyearbyen expedition departing 5 June.
2028 itineraries and the Extraordinary Expedition
In 2028 the line adds ten Extended Journeys with durations of 14 to 26 nights, covering destinations from Seville to Nice, Rome to Lavrion, and Venice to Lisbon. A standout is the 31‑night Extraordinary Expedition scheduled for September 2028, where World Voyager will travel from Svalbard on 5 September to Lisbon, linking the High Arctic with the Atlantic coast.
