  1. Cruise Port Spotlight: Lisbon, Portugal

    Most cruise ships passengers make sure they are out on deck for the arrival of their ship into Lisbon. Its setting is beautiful: it is the only European capital city on the Atlantic Ocean and sits on the wide Tagus River. As they navigate the river, many of the Portuguese capital’s must-sees are visible including the elaborate limestone Belem Tower, standing tall on the river’s bank, erected as a fort in the 16th century; and the limestone Monument to the Discoveries, depicting a group of navigators and monarchs on the deck of a sailing ship –men who figured prominently in Portugal’s exploits in exploration including Ferdinand Magellan, Vasco da Gama and Prince Henry the Navigator.

  3. Greenland beckons with dogsled rides, pulse-pounding views and a world-class glacier

    ILULISSAT, Greenland - It's so cold, they closed the igloos. The icebergs are shivering. Two of my toes are slightly frostbitten. Yesterday my life seriously flashed before my eyes on a dogsled ride through the mountains.

  9. Cruise Port Spotlight: Papeete, Tahiti

    Papeete, Tahiti’s capital and gateway to many South Pacific voyages, has a cosmopolitan French/Polynesian ambiance and many natural and cultural attractions. And chances are good that travelers who go to Papeete to embark on a cruise to the Society Islands and other isles of the South Pacific, will have more than a day to enjoy the city and surrounding areas. Flights typically arrive at Tahiti-Faa’a International Airport in the evening from the west coast of the U.S. and cruise ships generally dock overnight there before setting sail in late afternoon, and on the return, vessels usually also overnight in Papeete and flights back to the U.S. depart in the evening the next day.

  11. Cruise Port Spotlight: Singapore

    A strict, independent city-state of five million that inhabit just 224 square miles, Singapore is known for its many rules and stiff penalties regarding littering, eating, drinking and smoking in public areas (the infamous ban on chewing gum in public areas has been relaxed, but you still cannot litter with the used gum). This exotic city-state has nonetheless much to offer travelers.

  13. Cruise Port Spotlight: Civitavecchia in Rome, Italy

    Rome, the “Eternal City,” as the saying goes, was not built in a day –and cannot be seen in a day—but often cruise passengers have only one day to enjoy it (unless they are fortunate that their voyage begins or ends in Civitavecchia, the port of Rome, and they are able arrange for an extended stay pre- or post-cruise).
