I would love to cruise around Alaska, to see the wildlife and scenery would be amazing.

Croatia

Love to end in Venice after a cruise round the mediterranean as I loved it when I went with the school for 2 weeks and love to walk down memory lane and visit the wonderful countries again after 35 years to see how much has changed and as I said to visit Venice again and have a gondola ride as I only got the morning before flying home when I was 16, happy days back then

Hurtigruten up the coast of Norway would be my idea trip. The picturious and awesome sights is amazing!!

I've never been on a cruise unless you count Newhaven to Dieppe . I'd quite like to cruise from Australia back to the UK taking in, in particular, Vietnam and Cambodia but perhaps my maiden voyage should be shorter, say a gentle amble up the Douro with frequent stops for landlubber legs (and port)

We have cruised but never with Holland America.............

Fly-cruising is the only option for me (cutting out the Bay of Biscay) and cruising anywhere is just bliss.

We have not yet taken a cruise from Vancouver so that is on my little list - it musts be amazing to see sights of Alaska.

I'd would love to cruise all around Australia,
such a diverse country.

I am going on my first cruise later this year along the Norwegian Fjords. It is part of my 60th birthday present to myself. DD & ex partner are coming with me. So as this is my first cruise this has to be a dream cruise for me. Norway is a beautiful country, I do believe, & I am so hoping to see the Northern Lights!

The caribbean, on a relatively small ship. I'm lucky enough to have done this and it was wonderful - waking up to a different tropical island each morning (well worth the extra for an outside cabin). Seems like a dream now!

My ideal cruise would be sailing around the islands in French Polynesia and snorkelling off the coast of Bora Bora,enjoying the tranquil seas brimming with sea life.Cannot think of anything more idyllic.

Santorini and the Greek Islands for me please. Have heard that Santorini is very beautiful and I love sunshine - so, win win with that destination.

I would love to take the grandchildren and see the Northern lights together - they look so magical, only ever seen them in pictures, so to travel by cruise to see them would be out of this world! x

During the war my father was stationed in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and often spoke with great enthusiasm aboutbsome of the places that he saw. I would love to follow in his footsteps and visit the places he spoke ,so fondly, about.

I don’t ‘do’ cold holidays so it was with trepidation we went on a Hurtigruten cruise with friends last January. I loved it. I love being on floaty things anyway but this was my first proper cruise too. We have friends who went with Holland America to Alaska and had a wonderful time so that’s the cruise I would choose for choice as a way of seeing cold places in comfort. But anywhere will do. Anywhere at all!

Have never been on a cruise, but have just picked up a bagful of brochures on rivet cruising to peruse. Maybe a gentle European rivet cruise might tempt me. Our last holiday was a full-on tour of Australia and New Zealand which was so hectic that the exact opposite is very appealing. Maybe a lovely journey along the Danube to Budapest would be the answer? Can't wait to go!

I loved our cruise to the fjords, and would love to go again in the summertime, but somewhere I`ve always fancied cruising around is Alaska. I have a very thick book about Alaska from prehistoric times to the present day, and it`s really whetted my appetite.

I'd love to see the Norwegian fjords, but not on a huge cruise liner please. Then, if there's time at the end, the Scottish islands would be an extra treat!

Hubby and I would love to cruise to the Far East China, Hong Kong and then go on to Sydney. These places are on our bucket lists. I don't fancy the long haul flight so cruising a part of the way is perfect.

Ah cruises. I love cruises!

We have been cruising for about 12 years now. Initially I wasn't keen but my husband was and managed to persuade me, and I am SO glad he did.

I think they are the most wonderful way to spend a holiday. I especially love waking up somewhere different nearly every day. I open the curtains, and this lovely floating hotel has magically transported us to a new destination. I find it fascinating watching us coming into and leaving the ports.

Ok they are not the cheapest holiday but when you consider what is included in the price, I think they represent fantastic value for money.

As well as all the meals included there is always evening entertainment going on around the ship, from a show in the theatre, to maybe a quiz in one of the bars. We often just enjoy walking round the outside decks after dinner looking at the sea though.

Now where to go? The Caribbean is wonderful of course in the winter, and it feels almost decadent to be walking on a beach in shorts and tee shirt in January or February!

I would always chose the Med and the Adriatic though in the Summer because of the sheer variety of the ports of call.

Sailing into and out of Venice is one of life's 'must sees'.
It is simply magical gliding slowly through the water with all the sights unfolding. Then it's down the Adriatic calling in maybe at Dubrovnik and Split, Croatia to reach the Greek Islands of Santorini with it's pretty blue domed churches, and Mykonos where Shirley Valentine was filmed.

I would then go through the Straits of Messina into the Med and on to Naples to see Capri or maybe Pompei.

Depending on the length of the cruise it could also take in Rome and Florence.

All wonderful!

I would like to cruise the Caribbean.

I would like to cruise to Australia like in the olden days.

I would choose Singapore as my dream destination. I Would love to see the Gardens by the bay as a garden lover this would be perfect to view the array of plants and flowers on display. I would visit Raffles hotel to have an authentic Singapore sling.

Anywhere that you just couldn’t see to best advantage any other way. I can see no other good reason to travel on a huge boat with lots of folk I don’t know!

all of my dream cruises are to the chillier areas - I would love to see the Arctic, the Antarctic, the Baltic and Scandinavia. Perhaps some amazing year-long "follow the snow" itinerary could be devised!

I would love to cruise around the Norwegian fjords, the mountains are beautiful, the sea is glorious and the natural life and flora is gorgeous.

My route would start at Kristiansand, then via Oslo and the inner leads to Harstad and final ending at Tromsö
