Jules Verne has announced the launch of its new Cruise Collection brochure featuring 35 cruises visiting the Mediterranean, Europe, South East Asia, Nile River, Indian Ocean, Antarctica and more for 2025/26.
The Cruise Collection is the second of four brochures to be released as part of Jules Verne’s new series, which includes the Worldwide Collection published in June, as well as the European Collection and Solo Collection to come.
The brochure details what makes cruising with Jules Verne special, the various types of cruises on offer including river, expedition, coastal and barge and two brand new Europe cruises for 2025.
Debbie O’Neill, Managing Director at Jules Verne, says: “Our new Cruise Collection features a fascinating variety of itineraries, designed for culturally curious travellers seeking an experience unlike those offered by commercial cruise lines.
“Guests can discover the breathtaking beauty of some of the world’s most picturesque rivers, canals, and coastlines with our exclusive selection of holidays.
“Our itineraries focus on small ship cruising on luxury vessels, so our guests have an intimate and unique experience that gets them closer to the hearts of destinations.
“From gliding on a royal steamer down the Nile and meandering down the Mekong River, to island-hopping along the Croatian coast and sailing in the Seychelles, there’s something for everyone looking for a cruise experience for the memory books.”
