Written by Myrna Arroyo | Sep 9, 2016 2:00:00 PM

Crystal has just announced their 2019 World Cruiseitinerary, once again making Crystal the first-to-market with an unprecedented lead time for guests to consider and book their grandest travel adventures.

Aboard Crystal Serenity® the 84-day Grand Continental Odysseys (including a January 13, 2019 on board Gala celebration for Full World Cruise guests) will sail January 14 – April 8, 2019, on an epic voyage from Los Angeles to Monte Carlo. The complete itinerary is comprised of four separate World Cruise Voyages, each with a sensational destination focus—Hawaii & the South Pacific; Tasmania & Australia's Southern Coast; Indian Ocean & South Africa; Western Africa & the Mediterranean.

You'll discover the natural wonders of Australia and Africa by way of the South Pacific and Indian Ocean. Crystal’s 2019 World Cruise follows a tropical route deep into the Southern Hemisphere to see kangaroos and wallabies in the Outback, spot lemurs in Madagascar, sight Big Five on safari and search for secrets in the world’s oldest desert. Sprinkled throughout this grand wilderness odyssey are flourishes of cosmopolitan glamor and legendary landmarks—Sydney’s iconic opera house, Cape Town’s commanding Table Mountain, Barcelona’s awe-inspiring Sagrada Família, and the Palais Princier de Monaco.

From the lush volcanic isles of Hawaii to the vast wilderness reserves throughout South Africa, explore the untamed natural beauty of Australia’s south coast, featuring two maiden calls at Kangaroo Island—minutes from the mainland, but a million miles away “where the wild things are,” and Busselton—gateway to the Margaret River Wine Region.

On an itinerary perfectly balancing sublime days at sea with supreme adventures ashore, relish the serenity of an Indian Ocean transit before trekking rainforests in Mauritius and snorkeling coral reefs in Reunion Island. A rare three-day stay in Cape Town invites explorations of famed beaches, renowned wine regions, and naturally, Table Mountain, while the journey along Africa’s western coast reveals secrets of the Namib Desert (including the world’s tallest sand dunes), and remote Atlantic islands with important ties to history (Napoleon was exiled to St. Helena). This epic adventure concludes with picture-perfect ports in Spain and a final two nights in Monte Carlo to savor the indulgences of the French Riviera. 

This is an 84-day adventure of a lifetime! Booking early guarantees you the best rates, with fares starting at $26,285 per person.
