Cruise West Announces World's Longest Cruise

Around-the-world cruising isn't a new concept, but no one's ever done it quite like this.

Cruise West recently announced its plan to circumnavigate the globe in a leisurely 335 days. The cruise will be, by far, the longest of its kind in the industry. More information and an itinerary are expected later this month, but for now the cruise line has kept details to a minimum:

The ship will visit 59 countries over 14 oceans and seas during a cruise that intends to trace the destinations of historical sailors and explorers.
