More about Ambassador Cruise Line

No Fly Cruises

Sailing from the United Kingdom can make your cruise holiday hassle-free. No worrying about long airport queues or weight limits, no long journey before you have to start your trip and you only have to unpack once to explore the world.

At Ambassador Cruise Line, our cruise holidays depart from one of seven regional ports around the UK, with the London International Cruise Terminal in Tilbury being our base port. All of the ports we choose to sail from are easily accessed and are spread out around the UK so whether you live in John O’Groats or Land’s End, you’ll not have to travel too far to start your getaway.

A no-fly cruise holiday with Ambassador Cruise Line is like no other. Enjoy an authentic cruise experience on board a traditional ship with contemporary twists. Enjoy an incredible list of destinations around the world and the ever-changing view from your stateroom window. There really is nothing like that sense of exploration and discovery. Even on sea days, we have plenty onboard to keep you upbeat with a range of amazing dining options and entertainment, as well as more on our selection of themed cruises.

Where else can you find a holiday where you visit destinations around the world and your hotel moves with you? With a no-fly cruise, you have no packing, no hassle, and no worries, it’s truly stress-free.
