Quark Expeditions will take its polar icebreaker, the Yamal, on voyages above the Arctic Circle. In China, there are cruises along the Yangtze River. One interesting choice is Royal Caribbean International's Royal Journeys program. The program, offered on sailings of the Legend of the Seas, explores the world's oceans. During the cruise, passengers have the option of taking an extended land stay at various ports, and rejoining the ship a few days later.
Passengers also have the option of arriving early at the port of departure to explore that area.
