A truly unique experience, the MS Seaventure is the only ship of her size to cruise the breathtaking waters of the British Isles, offering all the exciting possibilities of ocean cruising aboard a boutique ship with fewer than 170 guests. You’ll be able to dock in smaller harbours that large ships cannot reach, getting right to the heart of the destinations you visit. Plus, with a fascinating tour at every port of call, there’s so much to see as you sail on the world-class small ship.
Expedition Cruises
Journeys to the Arctic and Antarctica are the epitome of expedition cruises and offer you a truly memorable experience in remote and incredible corners of the world.
Gaze in awe at majestic fjords and glaciers of the Arctic and experience the jaw dropping sight of glaciers and giant iceberg-filled bays amongst the mountainous terrain of the Antarctic Peninsula.
The abundant wilderness offer the opportunity to spot rare birds like the Atlantic yellow-nosed albatross, soaring and sweaping low until their wing feathers almost touch the tip of the waves, and humpack whales with their huge black tailfins peaking out as they dive down into the water.
Ocean Cruises
Our collection of ocean cruises promises the most life-enriching and luxurious experiences to some of the world's most iconic destinations.
Explore Alaska's vast coastline on a cruise of this spectacular North American state, through its most pristine natural wildernesses, taking in the icy beauty of some of the world's most impressive glaciers. Or soak in the romance of a bygone maritime tradition on a voyage back in time on the magnificent Royal Clipper.
This outstanding and beautiful tall ship offers a unique sailing experience, yet in the utmost luxury.
Yacht Cruises
Glide through the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic on board an exclusively chartered yacht. A typical day on board a luxurious yacht cruise might involve lounging on the sun deck listening to the calming waves with your morning coffee as you arrive at a charming coastal town. Then perhaps a dip in the crystal-clear water or visit to a local landmark before sampling some traditional cuisine and a glass of chilled wine at a nearby restaurant.
Our yachts, carrying up to just 40 passengers, cruise from Venice, Dubrovnik and Split and a full programme of fascinating shore excursions is included.
We also visit picturesque ports and islands which are less accessible to larger vessels allowing you to experience a quieter but equally beautiful side of the Dalmatian Coast.
