A sense of excitement builds every time you arrive at a different port. Experience Crystal’s destination excellence in its portfolio of shore excursions that let you live out every travel dream. Explore the medieval walled city of Dubrovnik and sail through translucent blue waters aboard a private boat; or set out on a tour of a botanical garden followed by a feast celebrating Croatia’s prized Ston oysters. Anywhere you sail, you’ll find one discovery after another — like a rustic cooking lesson in a Tuscan farmhouse or a vineyard tour in search of the best Super Tuscans. An overnight stay in magical Istanbul lets you fill up on adventures from bustling bazaars to an authentic Turkish bath.
In addition to the shore excursions, Crystal will offer a portfolio of Unique Experiences and Overland Adventures in partnership with Abercrombie & Kent. With these, the company is finding innovative ways to engage Crystal guests in the essence of a destination while presenting it in a new light. On a cruise along the coast of South America, for example, a small group of travelers chartered a yacht and spent a week in the Galápagos Islands, later returning to the ship in Lima. Other adventures include helicopter-hopping to a destination a few hours away, or arriving in Italy and zipping off in a fleet of Ferraris.
Grab onto that feeling of anticipation by giving us a call or sending an email to reserve your voyage and save between 10%-20% on your fare.

At 18, I was mapping out our adventures through Europe and the East Coast—choosing the cities, booking the travel, and figuring out what we wanted to see and do each day. At 22, I fulfilled a lifelong dream by moving to London through the BUNAC program, where I worked for an international architecture firm and fully embraced life abroad.
Since then, my love for travel has only grown—whether it's a romantic weekend with my husband or a six-week family adventure along the East Coast, I find joy in planning every detail. I’m passionate about curating experiences that go beyond the guidebook—blending hidden gems with must-see sights for a well-rounded adventure. As a me ...
