Pure Indulgence Awaits
Luxury cruises are more than just champagne, caviar, and exemplary service—though you’ll find plenty of all three. They represent a philosophy of travel where every detail is curated to perfection, from the thread count of your linens to the expertise of your onboard sommelier. Whether you’re savoring a multi-course tasting menu prepared by a Michelin-starred chef, enjoying a private shore excursion to a hidden vineyard, or simply watching the sunset from your veranda with a glass of vintage champagne, luxury cruising transforms the journey itself into the destination.
Intimate Ship Sizes
Luxury vessels typically carry 100-700 guests, ensuring personalized attention and a refined atmosphere free from crowds.
All-Inclusive Excellence
Premium beverages, gratuities, specialty dining, and often shore excursions are included—no hidden costs or surprise charges.
Destination Immersion
Longer port stays, overnight calls, and access to smaller harbors that larger ships can’t reach create deeper cultural connections.

What’s Included on a Luxury Cruise
One of the greatest advantages of luxury cruising is the truly all-inclusive nature of the experience. While inclusions vary by cruise line, here’s what you can typically expect:
Best Time to Book a Luxury Cruise
Book Early (12-18 months ahead): Luxury cruise ships are smaller, and the best suites sell out quickly—especially for peak season sailings and popular itineraries like Mediterranean summer or Alaska. Early booking often includes valuable perks like shipboard credits, upgraded suites, or included airfare.
Wave Season (January-March): Cruise lines release their best promotions during the first quarter of the year. This is the ideal time to book for exceptional value, with offers like free business class air, complimentary pre-cruise hotel stays, or significant savings.
Last-Minute Luxury: If you have flexibility, last-minute bookings (30-90 days out) can offer remarkable value on remaining inventory—though suite selection will be limited.
Holiday sailings, Grand Voyages, and World Cruises book up years in advance. If you have a bucket-list voyage in mind, contact us early to secure your place.
