THE MOST LUXURIOUS CRUISE SHIPS FOR YOUR NEXT ESCAPE
04 August 2023
INSPIRING TRAVEL,
Cruise Ship
All
A luxury cruise allows you to relish the high life on the seas, spoiling you with ultra-luxury vessels, detailed itineraries across iconic destinations, unparalleled service and enrichment programmes ...
With the most luxurious cruise ships continuously upping their game, you might be wondering exactly which one best suits you?
With that in mind, Inspiring Travel, part of the ITC Group, have compiled eight of the best luxury cruise lines, each offering something unique, so you can find the one that’s perfect for you.
Read on to find out everything from the best restaurants onboard to magical movie nights under the stars with Seabourn, Regent Seven Seas
Cruises, SeaDream Yacht Club, Oceania Cruises, Silversea, AmaWaterways, Windstar, and Hapag-Lloyd.
WHY CHOOSE A LUXURY CRUISE?
A luxury cruise holiday is the perfect way to experience multiple enticing destinations across the globe in one seamless itinerary. The best part
is, you only need to unpack once. Plus, after a busy day of shore excursions, it’s a wonderful feeling to arrive back on board to enjoy remarkable
cuisine, stellar service, and unparalleled facilities before retiring to your luxury suite or stateroom.
1. SEABOURN
Best luxury cruise line for…
Cultural insights and historic sites
Giving guests a real depth of experience both onboard and ashore, one of the most outstanding features of Seabourn cruises is their intellectually stimulating offerings.
The line’s ability to call into hidden yacht harbours in destinations such as Corsica, Croatia, tiny Greek islands and Turkey’s azure coast means that you can enjoy fascinating World Heritage Sites, plus access these marvels during excursions or complimentary experiences such as Seabourn’s unique ‘Classical Concert at Ephesus’.
Onboard, the fascinating cultural offerings continue with Seabourn Conversations, which puts you in discussion with interesting people from various arenas, from the arts and sciences to the culinary scene and political world
Set sail on any one of Seabourn’s contemporary, ultra-luxury ships and you’ll feel you’re a member of a very exclusive club. Renowned for offering ‘the world’s finest small-ship experience’, Seabourn highlights include their intuitive service, all-suite accommodation and their relaxed, country club vibe. Choose from Oceanview Suites with spacious verandas or Penthouse Suites boasting floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
With each vessel carrying between 458 and 600 guests, Seabourn’s spacious suites come with a personal Suite Assistant who welcomes you on board with Champagne and canapés, personalises your nightly turndown service and assists you with any special requests. This perfectly encapsulates Seabourn’s service: unobtrusive and dedicated to ensuring that everything is always exactly as you wish.
2. REGENT SEVEN SEAS CRUISES
Best luxury cruise line for…
Extensive range of excursions
When you set sail on one of the world’s most luxurious cruise ships, it’s as much about exploring the land as traversing the sea. Regent Seven Seas Cruises have over 2,000 excursions, allowing you to experience everything that the exciting ports of call have to offer. From exclusive behind the scenes tours to authentic cultural outings led by knowledgeable guides — the possibilities are endless!

3. SEADREAM YACHT CLUB
Best luxury cruise line for…
A yachting experience and visiting small coves
SeaDream Yacht Club’s mantra — “it’s yachting, not cruising” – pretty much sums up the biggest difference between this line and other luxury cruise lines. An alternative to ‘big ship’ cruising, SeaDream Yacht Club offers exceptional all-inclusive sailings to the Caribbean and the Mediterranean, aboard two distinctively stylish yachts: SeaDream I and SeaDream II.
As well as feeling like you’re on your very own superyacht, these vessels are perfect for getting you into secret coves and smaller ports for a more ‘world away’ Caribbean experience. In Europe, they can even take you right into the heart of Venice!
With 56 staterooms each and a maximum guest capacity of just 112, you can expect an almost-private yachting experience. Enjoy highly-personalised service on board with nearly one crew member to each SeaDream guest. The Staterooms themselves are realised in luxury nautical décor with touches of blue in their plush furnishings, large ocean view windows and marble-lined bathrooms.
SeaDream are also renowned for their inclusive open bar and gratuities, which they believe are paramount to your yachting experience. Other highlights of these incredible voyages include their weekly beachside Champagne & Caviar Splash Party, as well as movie nights screened under the stars.

Celebrating 20 extraordinary years at sea this year, Oceania Cruises’ first-class fleet is made up of eight luxury vessels: Regatta, Insignia, Nautica, Marina, Riviera and Sirena. Vista is set to embark on her maiden voyage this Spring, with Allura scheduled to join the fleet in 2025.
Oceania Cruises have built a solid reputation for serving up The Finest Cuisine at Sea®.

Not only that, but the personal service onboard rivals that of the world’s finest hotels and is performed by formally trained butlers.
With refined and stylish interiors throughout, the line’s elegant suites are the icing on top of a delicious cake you’d sample in one of their restaurants. Realised in soft sea and earth tones, choose between various levels of accommodation: Luxurious Staterooms, Veranda Staterooms offering mesmerising ocean views, Penthouse Suites and Owner’s Suites furnished in Ralph Lauren Home.

From the Arctic and Antarctica to the Galapagos Islands, Silversea’s fleet of intimate cruise ships provides the best way to travel to more hard-to-reach places and remote wildlife havens.
There’s a decidedly classic aesthetic and indulgent ambience aboard these ships — not least due to the line’s all-inclusive concept, which invites guests to enjoy a range of excursions including hiking, zodiac cruising and snorkelling, free-flowing Champagne, 24-hour gourmet dining and complimentary expedition gear (including a parka in polar regions).
From cosy Adventurer Suites right up to the grandest Owner’s Suite, all accommodation offers butler service, beautiful ocean views for that all-important dose of natural daylight. As well as having some of the highest space-per-guest ratios of any luxury cruise ship accommodation, you’ll also have the option to customise in-suite amenities, from the toiletries in your bathroom to the selection of drinks in your minibar.
With a maximum guest capacity of 200 on the newest expedition vessel, Silver Endeavour –not to mention a guest-to-crew ratio of one-to-one – it’s safe to say the service onboard this ship is truly exceptional. Plus, guests can travel to some of the remotest polar regions in the world with full peace of mind thanks to the ship’s state-of-the-art equipment and exploration technology.
6. AMA WATERWAYS
Best luxury cruise line for…
Exploring European cities
Perfect for getting to the heart of European cities, AmaWaterways are masters of providing the luxury river cruise experience.

7. WINDSTAR
Best luxury cruise line for…
An intimate cruise experience

Significantly smaller than the likes of Oceania, Regent Seven Seas, Silversea and Seabourn, these luxury yachts are able to offer a very intimate cruising experience. Not only that, but they can also reach smaller coves, meaning you can experience the less-frequented areas of the destinations you visit.
Step on board one of their three ultra-exclusive yachts — Star Pride, Star Breeze, or Star Legend — and be transported to faraway shores in the utmost comfort and style. Upholding high standards across the board when it comes to accommodation, all Staterooms feature a Queen Size Bed, L’Occitane bath products and ensuites fit with granite countertops.
Windstar guests are treated to all the comforts of home, all around the world. Beyond their carefully-designed spaces, the crew onboard pride themselves on their intuitive service.
