Why cruise in October?

October cruises are available across the world, whether you want to escape to a warmer climate or tick a few countries and sights off your bucket list. Spend half-term on holiday with all the family and explore uncrowded cities, as October is the perfect time to get away on your next cruise holiday.

Cruising Europe in October

Many October cruises head to Europe to let you enjoy the tail-end of the summer season. We have cruises for the entire continent including some beautiful scenic cruises around the eastern Mediterranean, Norway and Iceland.

For explorers and adventurers, you may prefer a western Mediterranean cruise or a voyage to the Baltic region of northern Europe, around fascinating cities full of history, architecture and culture.

Transatlantic voyages in October

Transatlantic cruises in October are also popular, as the summer ends in Europe. A number of cruise lines run a series of repositioning cruises, so if you're looking to get the most out of the facilities of a cruise ship then an east-to-west transatlantic voyage is the ideal solution.

A number of these transatlantic options depart from the UK, travelling to destinations such as New York and Canada. There are also many European cruises that embark from UK ports, along with other excellent options that visit the Caribbean.

Where else to sail in October

The Caribbean is a popular destination in October, right at the beginning of the dry season, making it a great time of the year to get away and extend your own summer holiday with a tropical break on one of the many idyllic islands.

Sail along the US Atlantic Coast in October, with many ships exploring the highlights of New England. This includes visiting the sights of the thriving city of Boston, as well as the scenic lands of Canada around New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.

You'll also find a range of cruises heading to the Far East, visiting the delights of Asia, as well as a selection that travels around the amazing nature and contemporary cities of Australia. See the lively cities and beautiful sights of South America and Africa, or unwind on a Hawaii cruise.

Booking your October cruise

We have a marvellous range of October 2025, 2026 & 2027 cruises to choose from, sailing with a range of cruise lines aboard a variety of magnificent ships designed for the ultimate cruise experience, as well as more family-oriented vessels boasting an array of fun activities, kid's clubs and family-friendly facilities. Take a look at the current deals for further details and book now for a fantastic deal.
