Whether Britons are looking for breathtaking vistas, sunny temperatures or city attractions, a cruise holiday is a great way to see the world.<\/p>\n
But with some top destinations such as Barcelona planning to bring in restrictions, it might be time for tourists to widen their horizons.<\/p>\n
The cruise experts at Panache Cruises have shared the world\u2019s most underrated destinations where guests will find beauty without the crowds.<\/p>\n
James Cole, founder of Panache Cruises, said: \u201cOne of the great things about a cruising holiday is being able to visit several destinations in a single trip – but often stopping at some of the most busy ports in the world also means having to navigate large crowds of tourists.<\/p>\n
\u201cYet there are several coastal towns which are equally as beautiful as the more popular ones, but don\u2019t have half as many tourists, meaning you can explore each place in peace without being surrounded by too many holidaymakers. Choosing the right cruise itinerary which visits lesser known ports can be very important especially at peak times. This is where a specialist cruise agent can add real value.\u201d<\/p>\n
