We have unparalleled experience and knowledge, but that doesn’t mean we do everything the way it’s always been done – quite the opposite, if we can see a better way of doing something then we embrace it.

We know you want bespoke holidays that are carefully crafted to suit you, so that’s how we do it.

They’re experts in researching, planning and creating the perfect cruise holidays.

They’ll get to know you, understand exactly what you’re looking for, and make personal recommendations that you’ll love.

Nothing is too much trouble for your Cruise Connoisseur, they take all the hassle and hold music out of booking your cruise and make it easy and exciting. They operate on the premise that the devil is in the detail, ensuring all the finer elements of your cruise are taken care of, including:

• Airport Transfers

• Car Parking

• Security fast passes and lounge access

• In-resort transfers

Our team has sailed on every cruise line we work with, so they can answer any question. With the most experienced professionals in the cruise industry on board, you couldn’t be in safer hands.

Our high standards naturally extend to the cruise lines we choose to partner with. We only work with selected, handpicked Premium and Ultra-Luxury cruise lines across which fits with us being specialist in Elite Ocean, River, Expedition and YachtStyle cruising.

STOCKHOLM,

NORTHERN EUROPE FEATURED PORTS

OSLO, NORWAY

Norway’s largest city is a masterpiece of modern architecture, classic culture, cutting-edge food and fashion, Viking history, and all kinds of art. Museums, parks, and the stunning Opera House are must-sees while here.

GOTHENBURG, SWEDEN

This picturesque port town is impressive for its natural beauty and charm. The many gorgeous botanical gardens, flower beds and parks are dazzling in color and wildlife, with an equally vibrant café, boutique and theatre scene.

COPENHAGEN, DENMARK

From the hearty waterfront cheer of Nyhavn to the serenity of Rosenborg and Amalienborg castles, wonderful Copenhagen is a charmer. Shop ‘til you drop on the Stroget walking street, and visit fanciful Tivoli amusement park.

WISMAR, GERMANY

As the largest market square in Germany and home to one of the finest preserved examples of German Brick Gothic architecture, this UNESCO World Heritage Site has been an important Baltic seaport from the 1300s to today.

HAMBURG, GERMANY

Free spirited, artsy and diverse Hamburg is an eclectic city where you can relax in lovely parks one minute, browse an outdoor market the next, take in live theatre or comedy, or stroll red-brick canals all in the same day.

SKAGEN, DENMARK

Skagen is the Scandinavian version of a beach retreat, complete with lighthouses and birdwatching. Once popular to impressionist painters, the town’s artistry lives on in museums, shops, galleries and architecture.

GDANSK, POLAND

A monument to strength and perseverance, Gdańsk has wavered between Poland and Germany for centuries. The historic Old City has been rebuilt since World War II and offers a look at the city’s past, present and future.

PORT PIONERSKEY (KALININGRAD), RUSSIA

This small city is full of surprising delights, like a Prussian fortress turned into an Amber Museum, a “Dancing Forest” UNESCO site, the massive Museum of the World Ocean, quaint fishing villages and the breathtaking Königsberg Cathedral.

ST. PETERSBURG, RUSSIA

Russia's main Baltic port boasts a tsar's ransom of architecture, palaces and art, with canals reminiscent of Venice, a boulevard evoking Paris and a uniquely Russian spirit. Three days is just enough to begin taking it all in.

HELSINKI, FINLAND

Your day in Finland’s capital may include a visit to the great gray Lutheran Cathedral and the Temppeliaukio Church carved out of solid granite. Shop for Finnish design (Marimekko, Iittala) on the Esplanadi, leading up from Market Square.

TALLINN, ESTONIA

Ivory stone walls, cobblestone streets, red-roofed towers, windmills and a Gothic Revival Cathedral make Tallinn feel like a gateway into medieval times that’s seamlessly blended with modernday enjoyments.

RIGA, LATVIA

Founded in the 12th century, the present-day capital of Latvia remains one of the most beautiful Baltic cities. Gothic, Baroque Renaissance and Classical architecture all frame vistas of the sea and River Dvina.

VISBY, SWEDEN

Often called the City of Roses, the namesake flowers bloom nearly all year, framing 17 medieval churches, the Old Apothecary, museums with Viking rune stones and artifacts, sandy beaches, wild cliffs and rolling pastures.

ÅLESUND, NORWAY

Following a fire in 1904, Ålesund was rebuilt in the Art Nouveau style. Its towers and turrets, backed by the Sunnmøre Alps, make it one of the loveliest towns in Norway. Explore this picture-perfect town and the islands that surround it by kayak, with our Expedition Team’s kayak expert as your guide.

SVOLVÆR (LOFOTEN), NORWAY

Fishermen flock here in winter, and artists adore their rugged peaks, shining seas and extraordinary light. Cruise by Zodiac® to explore this archipelago from hidden channels only accessible to small craft. Or join our kayak guide to paddle the waterways near Svolvær – the capital.

TROMSØ, NORWAY

Located 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle, Tromsø basks in the midnight sun during summer months. Notable landmarks include the distinctive Arctic Cathedral, the Tromsø University Museum and the unique Polar Museum.

LÆRDAL, NORWAY

At the edge of Norway's longest and deepest fjord, this iconic fishing town dates all the way back to the 1200s and Viking times. Today, it is known for salmon fishing, great hiking and the towering Stødnafossen Waterfalls.

FARSUND, NORWAY

Norway’s Lista Peninsula is filigreed with fjords and waterways. Popular for its beaches and prolific birdlife, hiking trails and historic events such as the pirate festival. For the best view of the spectacular coastline, cruise into the many channels and waterways near the town of Farsund by Zodiac® with our expert Expedition Team as your guide, on an optional Ventures by Seabourn excursion.

PENZANCE, ENGLAND

Located where the Atlantic meets the English Channel, this busy fishing port is home to a tranquil harbor where you can stroll the Penzance Promenade and the beach while admiring church steeples and Cornish charm.

ZEEBRUGGE (BRUSSELS), BELGIUM

This is our portal to the fairytale charms of Bruges. Laced by canals and bristling with confectionary gothic steeples, its historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Further afield is the capital of Brussels, headquarters of the European Union.

FALMOUTH, ENGLAND

A seaside escape beloved by yachters, sailors and surfers, Falmouth’s pleasant climate, stylish harbor, castle on the bluff, sandy beaches, sub-tropical gardens and modern cuisine are all unexpected European treats.

DUBLIN, IRELAND

Once a Viking settlement, the modern-day Irish capital boasts a spirit all its own. Hundreds of pubs champion traditional and folk music, stone castles and churches preserve history, and modern buildings highlight the city’s economic stature.

DOUGLAS, ISLE OF MAN, UNITED KINGDOM

A unique self-governing island in the Irish Sea, the Isle of Man is a melting pot of character with stunning natural landscapes, unspoiled beaches, nature reserves, historic churches, diverse museums and nautical exhibits.

BELFAST, NORTHERN IRELAND

Belfast's center is an attractive place with street musicians and a revitalized river front. Visit Titanic Belfast, the star-shaped repository of all things RMS Titanic.

ROTHESAY, ISLE OF BUTE, SCOTLAND

Imagine the quintessential medieval village. It likely looks like Rothesay. The castle with drawbridge and moat, a 6th-century monastery on a hill, walled gardens and elegant estate homes all more than live up to the fantasy.

NEWHAVEN (EDINBURGH), SCOTLAND

Just north of the Edinburgh city center, this coastal suburb is a quaint gateway to Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, the Royal Mile, Scottish National Gallery, a vibrant arts and cultural scene, year-round festivals, and much more.

NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, ENGLAND

Newcastle is a tasteful mix of new and old. Gorgeous newer bridges and the spherical Sage Gateshead Concert Hall stand alongside the traditional Theatre Royal, the Castle Keep, cathedrals and the serene Jesmond Dene Park.

BORDEAUX, FRANCE

See one of France’s most beloved wine regions by sailing up the Garonne river. Stately architecture and a charming promenade line the riverfront, inviting you to explore picturesque parks, cafés, cultural sites and taste world-class vintages.

ROUEN (PARIS), FRANCE

Among the most popular cities of outer Paris, Rouen, the “City of a Hundred Spires,” is home to the Cathedrale Notre-Dame, the Gros-Horloge Renaissance clock, the Place du Vieux Marche and enduring medieval ambience.
