The Top Five New Ships Of 2023:
Seven Seas Grandeur – After three decades of sailing, the
Regents Seas Cruise has launched their latest ship called the
Grandeur. You can actually be a part of their inaugural sailing as
she crosses the Atlantic Ocean to spend her winter months in the
Caribbean this coming year. Like her sister ships, the Seven Seas
Splendor and Seven Seas Explorer, this new build will celebrate
both signature features and new elements of her own.
Dine in the newly inspired Compass Rose dining room
with decor designed to simulate an enchanted forest, including
arched tree canopies and a cascading waterfall sculpture. Also
new is their Culinary Arts Kitchen, added spa enhancements
and cooking classes, along with high-end wine tastings. With
only 732 guests, this is truly the epitome of luxury!
Seabourn Pursuit – Following in the wake of her sister
ship, Seabourn Venture, this new vessel will bring a legacy
of luxury expedition voyages in 2023. Built to cross the water
in comfort, this ship has set its compass for such destinations
as Greenland, Iceland and Norway throughout the spring and
early summer.
The Seabourn Pursuit will bring you closer to nature’s
wonders with only 132 oceanfront veranda suites and a host
of state-of-the-art amenities. To add to the excitement, you
can also have the thrill of plunging beneath the water’s surface
in a custom-built submarine. For those interested in a more
active experience, you can venture close to shore in a Zodiac
raft or by kayak. Either way, you will learn from a team of 25+ years industry experience
expedition experts who will reveal rare insights into parts of
the world only a few experience. And once you are back on
ship, you will have the same amenities and luxury dining you
would find on any of Seabourn’s ships.
