Seabourn Cruises

Seabourn is a luxury cruise line that pioneered small-ship cruising. Today, its all-inclusive, small-ship cruises are enjoyed on state-of-the-art vessels that can accommodate anywhere from 264 to 600 passengers while being notable for its oceanfront suites, award-winning service, and impressive cuisine. Sailing on Seabourn is often compared to sailing on a private yacht, with an elegant yet unpretentious atmosphere.

The line offers itineraries across the globe, including popular destinations like the Mediterranean and Caribbean, Asia, Alaska, Australia, and even the Arctic. No matter which you choose you’ll enjoy soaking up the ocean views everywhere from your suite to the spa and fitness center. The facilities are wide-ranging and include pools, nine-hole putting courses, casinos, and live music venues.

Our Expert Says

“Seabourn cruises stand out for their ultra-luxury experience and private yacht-like atmosphere. Guests enjoy personalized service, complimentary premium spirits, and exquisite dining options. Signature events make the difference, such as ‘Caviar in the Surf’ on selected beach itineraries, being served iced champagne and caviar at a surfboard bar complete with barbecue on the beach. You still also get the small ship benefits, such as swimming off the ship on the ‘Marina Day’.”

Why we chose Seabourn

Cruise Specialist

We love cruising with Seabourn and we’re sure anyone who appreciates impeccable service and attention to detail will too. From the moment we step aboard one of its luxurious vessels, we know it’s going to be another unforgettable experience. It starts with a warm greeting by the friendly staff who are always eager to assist, going above and beyond to ensure all passengers have everything they need for a comfortable journey. The smaller, more intimate size of the vessels sets the scene for a more exclusive, personalized experience that allows us to get to know each destination more in-depth, thanks in part to the knowledgeable insight provided by expert staff. The multiple dining options from casual to upscale, the variety of excursions, and the facilities, including pools and spas, never fail to exceed our expectations. Plus, all of Seabourn’s spacious cabins and suites showcase ocean views.
