Explore the Ocean or River With Crystal Cruises

Crystal Cruises offers a voyage to suit every interest, whether it’s an ocean sailing to Alaska or a river cruise through Europe’s famous Christmas markets.

Right now, travelers can choose from nearly 850 different cruises spanning four different voyage types, including ocean, river, yacht and expedition cruises. And no destination is off limits as the luxury cruise line sails virtually all over the world, including Antarctica.

Not sure where to start? Explore the 49th state like never before this summer aboard the 848-guest Crystal Symphony, which will sail roundtrip from Vancouver on itineraries ranging from seven to 11 nights with fares starting at under $3,000.

Guests can experience the Alaskan capital of Juneau in addition to the Gold Rush town of Skagway and charming Sitka, which was once a part of Russia.

Onboard, passengers will enjoy six-star service made possible by an industry-leading 1 to 1.7 staff to guest ratio as well as culinary delights crafted by award-winning chefs, premier entertainment, butler-serviced suites and enrichment workshops hosted by passionate experts.

After you’ve conquered the Last Frontier, celebrate the holidays with a European river cruise featuring stops in some of the continent’s most festive destinations.

Consider a seven-night sailing from Passau to Budapest on the Danube aboard Crystal Mahler. Fares start at under $3,000 and guests will have opportunities to explore Linz, Austria—the European Capital of Culture in 2009—and spend two days in Vienna, where passengers can participate in dozens of excursions.

What’s more, Crystal Mahler will be part of the youngest fleet of ships among luxury river cruise companies in 2020, offering guests an unprecedented level of comfort. “Crystal River Cruises’ ships are not only the newest in the industry, but they are also the only to feature all-suite, all-balcony accommodations with every room category situated above the water line,” said Crystal’s president and CEO Tom Wolber in a statement.

“If you look across our culture and society right now, people are craving more connectedness, more intimate experiences and more enrichment. Vacation has become more than just sun and fun. It’s become a learning experience for people and also a desire to explore places,” Crystal River Cruises’ Vice President and Managing Director Walter Littlejohn told Mark Murphy on the TravelPulse Podcast earlier this month.
