“Superb Service! This was our first cruise, we knew nothing about cruising, rooms, packages etc. I have to say Anthony Donovan was probably the most helpful sales assistant I have ever come across. Nothing was too much trouble. The cruise was amazing and we have booked again for next year. Many Thanks.” – Mrs Parker “Hannah was excellent. She listened to what we wanted from our cruise and made many helpful suggestions. She gave us time to decide on the cruise we eventually booked and dealt with us in a professional yet friendly way.” – Mrs Thomas

With faultless service, all-inclusive cruising and outstanding facilities, Crystal’s medium sized vessels offer a travel experience like no other, so it comes as no surprise that it has been voted the World’s Best for 19 consecutive years.

Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest will undergo major enhancements in early 2016 as part of the newly remagined Azamara Club Cruises experience, with extensive upgrades drawing their inspiration from the four elements of nature. In addition, the line will implement new technologies,and upgrade every stateroom, suite, restaurant and new holistic Sanctum Spa.

Although the ships have excellent facilities, they successfully retain an intimate and relaxed atmosphere. Days at sea can be spent at the Canyon Ranch SpaClub, by the swimming pool or in the cocktail bar.

Seabourn’s philosophy is to enhance people’s lives through travel, something which is evident on each of its vessels. Impeccable service, deluxe accommodation and life-changing destinations all combine to create an ultra-luxury cruise experience. Each ship accommodates no more than 458 guests so it can focus on providing a truly personal service. On-board leisure facilities include a range of water sports, but for something a little less energetic, the spa offers a variety of treatments and therapies.

Oceania Cruises’ new ship Sirena is set to debut in April 2016, offering an array of new itineraries filled with unique destinations to provide more options for the line’s guests. Sirena is set to feature renowned specialty dining restaurants Toscana and Polo Grill, along with more recent additions to the fleet such as Baristas and the cook-to-order grill Terrace Café.

Seabourn will launch two exciting new ships over the next few years – Seabourn Encore and Seabourn Ovation, which will debut in 2016 and 2018 respectively. Expanding on the line’s popular and highly acclaimed Odyssey-class ships, the new vessels will feature enhanced accommodations and innovative amenities designed to delight even the most discerning cruisers.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises® Being the first cruise line to provide all-suite, all-balcony vessels, Regent Seven Seas Cruises® has set an unprecedented standard in the world of ultra-luxury cruising. But what also sets Regent apart is its comprehensive all-inclusive policy offering complimentary excursions in virtually every port of call.

Silversea Silversea prides itself on the broadly diverse destinations visited by its fleet. Designed for exploration, their size enables them to reach harbours that are often inaccessible to larger cruise ships. Comprising of only suites, many of which have a private veranda, every guest can enjoy ocean views and the professional services of a butler. Dining on Silversea is an experience in itself and because the line works closely with Grands Chers Relais and Chateaux, the food and service on-board is incomparable.
