With Peace Boat, you can travel around the world on a transformative three-month voyage aboard the majestic Pacific World cruise ship.
SINCE Jules Verne’s classic tale of circumnavigating the globe in 80 days, the dream of an around-the-world adventure has captivated the imagination of any would-be traveller.
Now, that dream can become a reality with Peace Boat.
With Peace Boat, you can travel around the world on a transformative three-month voyage aboard the majestic Pacific World cruise ship, for a unique adventure that promises not just an exploration of diverse lands and cultures but also a deep dive into global issues, all while fostering a spirit of peace and sustainability.
As an NGO that has launched over 100 cruises in 40 years, Peace Boat holds a special consultative status with the United Nations (UN), working on various projects to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
The organisation does this by raising awareness of global issues while fostering positive social change and transforming passengers’ perspectives of the world.
With a 2,419-passenger capacity and nine passenger decks, the Pacific World is the largest cruise ship ever sailed in Peace Boat’s 40-year history.
To date, Peace Boat has hosted over 83,000 passengers and travelled to more than 200 ports in over 80 countries.
Every Peace Boat cruise includes visits to iconic Unesco World Heritage sites.
Port experiences and activities
On every Peace Boat cruise, there are a myriad of experiences and activities for travellers to enjoy.
On average the cruise ship visits 25 ports in a single voyage, allowing you to enjoy the charms and attractions of many cities and destinations – on one trip.
Many of these destinations include visits to Unesco World Heritage sites and a variety of optional local tours.
Apart from the port experiences, travellers on board the Pacific World cruise ship can participate in a wide array of activities to keep themselves entertained while at sea, such as yoga, pilates, tai chi and dance classes.
Adding to the enrichment of the voyage, Peace Boat invites over 30 guest educators, made up of professors, journalists, musicians, peace activists, social creators and artists, offering lectures, workshops and cultural programmes, ensuring that every voyage is a profound educational experience.
