Our Story

At Duckling Cruises, we believe that every great journey begins with a single step - or in our case, a single sailaway. Based in the heart of the UK, we're a specialist cruise travel agency passionate about helping you discover the world by sea, in comfort, style, and with complete peace of mind.

Whether you’re dreaming of sailing the Mediterranean, exploring the glaciers of Alaska, island-hopping in the Caribbean, or embarking on a once-in-a-lifetime world cruise, we are here to make your cruise holiday seamless, stress-free, and unforgettable.

About Us

Inspired by the idea that every great journey starts with a little splash, over a decade ago we set out to create a cruise travel agency that puts personal service, genuine expertise, and a dash of fun at the core of every booking. Like a duckling discovering new waters, we’re here to guide you with enthusiasm and care, making sure your holiday planning is smooth sailing from start to finish.
