As slow travel inches its way into the mainstream, and sea-and-land adventures meld into fine-tuned itineraries, the future of cruise travel is looking a lot more relaxing. And since their multimillion-dollar rejuvenation, the Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony have proven they are indeed the champions of both – not to mention the best way to see the world.
It only makes sense, then, that the epic Crystal Grand Voyages are a top choice for those who want to experience the voyage of a lifetime, filled with optimal opportunities for sea and land discovery. Inspiring and enriching travelers – 2025 and beyond – Crystal sets the bar, with voyages from 40 to 70 nights. Can you see yourself within this scenario? We thought so.
Crystal’s extended voyage plans include more time spent in port, new and exciting overnight stops, and multiple overland options that see guests enjoying both iconic landmarks and lesser-explored regions on excursions designed by Abercrombie & Kent. Think: exclusive events, curated experiences, cultural magic.
Early in the year, the Roundtrip Mumbai sailing visits 15 countries and 32 destinations in 70 nights, exploring the full depths of Asia. Experience overnights in Bangkok and Ho Chi Minh City, the stunning Ha Long Bay and the infinitely cool Tokyo. On the return, the cultural richness of South Korea and the brilliance of Brunei are laid bare. You will experience many different cultures, hear the unique stories and discover the natural beauty of a fascinating continent.
Also at the beginning of the year, Roundtrip Singapore delivers 47 nights of extraordinary Asian delights. Set sail for the soothing shores of Taiwan, the tropical magic of Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand, along with the mystique of Ha Long Bay, the energy of Hong Kongand the refinement of Tokyo. Overnights in Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Shanghai and Singapore yield even more discovery. Leisurely days at sea let you take a break from it all – this is a cruise that gives you the best of both worlds.
In summer, the 40-night Stockholm to Liverpool voyage sends you through Northern Europe’s long white nights, including your first overnight in Stockholm. The medieval charm of Tallinn, Estonia, and Riga, Latvia, gives way to the southern Norwegian city of Kristiansand, before the Shetland and Orkney Isles acquaint you with the landscapes of the north – as far as Norway's North Cape. The Netherlands and coastal England imprint their charm upon you before the Liverpool last-stop.
Extra benefits on Crystal Grand Voyages include early bird savings, business class airfare, private transfer, laundry and more. Contact your Tully Travel Advisor today to book passage on one of these two extraordinary vessels. It’s time you found out what you’ve been missing – and catch up!
