• What type of way can you travel when you are traveling through Regent Seven Seas Cruises?

  Likely, your first transportation method will be a commercial plane taking you to the first port of departure, and then you will board the cruise for the remainder of your trip. However, while you're exploring each individual port, you can expect to be travelling by car, bus, train, or even ferry in certain cases. Each of these listed modes of transportation is covered by the initial cost of your cruise. However, if you choose to venture off on your own, then you will need to cover the cost of transportation. 

• Who customizes the itinerary or things you are going to do ahead of time?

  Your itinerary will be fully decided by our knowledgeable agents and crews ahead of your departure, allowing you to know all the details at the time of your booking. Some items on your potential itinerary could change depending on the time of year to allow for seasonal items and events in each location that we truly believe you won't want to miss. Rest assured that we are always aiming to pack as much into your vacation as we possibly can!

• Where do you stay while you are at the destinations?

  While you're traveling on a cruise for your vacation, your room travels with you! When you arrive on the ship, you will unpack just one time to settle into your stateroom and won't have to worry about packing up until your final disembarkation from the ship. During your time in each port, you can explore, enjoy your tours, participate in exciting excursions, and rest easy knowing that you have a comfortable stateroom waiting for your nightly return to the ship.

  Regent Seven Seas Cruises prides itself in offering each and every guest that special "insider" experience. We offer you some stunningly unique and interesting travel experiences during your time in each port. Our one-of-a-kind tours are able to take you to places that are otherwise unreachable to tourists. While some events and attractions are strictly available to the locals of the area, our insider experience grants you access to most, if not all, of these exciting activities.

• Is there a single supplement that can be used for travelers who are solo?

  Of course there is! We don't expect every vacationer to be travelling with someone else, and as such, we are happy to take any solo travelers onboard for a 25% supplement above the advertised per person fare on select voyages. Enjoy your solo journey to discover the awe-inspiring wonders of Alaska, to the history in Northern Europe, the sun-kissed beaches of the Mediterranean, and even the incredibly iconic landmarks of Australia!

• On average, what is the group size like?

  The group size varies depending on the time of year that you are travelling or the location that you are hoping to visit. However, generally our ships hold around 750 guests, with well over 500 crew members. This allows us to have enough crew so that no one is ever left waiting for anything. It is our commitment to ensuring you get the most out of your travel experience.
