My Cruises has officially set sail on the world’s longest cruise that will span more than 370 days, 220 unique ports, 62 countries and six continents.

The departure marks the start of the inaugural Explorations by Norwegian voyage, with Regatta departing Rome and now making its way around the globe as guests settle into life at sea and prepare to explore some of the world’s most sought-after destinations.

The sailing commemorates a major milestone for Explorations by Norwegian, a product My Cruises exclusively created, offering a new approach to world cruising.

Over 10,000 Australian and New Zealand guests are expected to experience the inaugural season, with the flexibility to choose between a complete circumnavigation of the globe or shorter sectors – without compromising the immersive experience of a premium small-ship voyage.

“Seeing Regatta set sail on this incredible journey is a hugely exciting moment for everyone involved,” My Cruises global head of cruise Michael Middleton said. “After years of planning and months of anticipation, watching our first guests step aboard and begin their adventure was incredibly special.”

Guests will now settle into a new rhythm at sea as Regatta begins its journey around the globe, with thousands of experiences, destinations and memories still to come.

From Mediterranean coastlines to the Northern Lights, the inaugural voyage will take guests across six continents over more than a year, promising what shapes up as an extraordinary chapter in their lives.
