Around the World cargo ship cruises

snaps from around the world decorative imageAndrew Weir Shipping Group offers an "Around the World" Service on the Gazellebank, Mahinabank, Tikeibank, and Boularibank. These ships depart monthly from Hull and Dunkirk, travelling to Papeete in Tahiti, various sparsely populated and unspoiled islands in the South Pacific, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, Singapore then via the Suez Canal, before returning to Europe. The whole voyage takes about 110-120 days, with port time ranging from 1 to 3 days.
Each vessel has accommodation for 12 passengers in 4 twin-berthed and 4 single-berthed cabins. Each cabin has its own 'en suite' facilities with toilet, shower, television and video, short wave radio, refrigerator, as well as hairdryer and tea and coffee making facilities.

As the voyages are long and would not suit everyone's requirements we are able to offer the ability to join and leave the vessel at any port you may wish to accommodate in your itinerary. Obviously this is subject to availability of a cabin for that sector.

You may also if you wish take time at any port (such as Auckland) and join a following sailing to your preferred destination.

Please talk to us about your plans and wishes and we will do our best to make it happen.
