CroisiMag - May 2024
Fellow cruisers,
In this month of May, with the promise of spring and the sparkle of new beginnings, we're delighted to welcome you to another edition of CroisiMag!
Sit back and relax as we take you on a journey through the world of travel and adventure.
Unique Excursions, for an Unforgettable Journey
For almost 50 years, we've been committed to providing you with unforgettable travel experiences, and we strive to offer you unique experiences in every corner of the world.
To complete our itineraries along the world's most emblematic rivers, seas and canals, we have developed a program of excursions to enrich each trip. These excursions are carefully studied, selected and shaped by our teams to best reflect the cultures and traditions of the regions or countries visited.
We offer two categories of excursions tailored to your aspirations and preferences, allowing you to perfect your cruising experience by highlighting the diversity and specificities of each destination.
The “Authentic” excursions combine culture, architecture, and history to perfectly highlight the must-sees that make up the richness of each destination.
The “Experiences” excursions offer original strolls, unusual visits, and tastings of local products, as well as real “heartwarming” experiences. They are distinguished by their intimate and confidential nature, with visits in small groups of 10 or more. They are aimed at lovers of exceptional places and unique experiences that stand out from the ordinary, for unforgettable memories.
Just a few of the many possibilities: discover the city of Porto along its historic tramway line, with a stop at the Tramway Museum and a tasting of local specialties. A visit to a gondola factory and a Commedia dell'Arte mask workshop, highlighting Venetian know-how and craftsmanship. A hike through the vineyards of Rüdesheim, with breathtaking views of the town, vineyards and Rhine.
NEW 2024: make your own selection of excursions. To give you the opportunity to mix and match “Authentic” and “Experiential” excursions, pre-established packages are no longer available.
From now on, you'll be able to make your own selection of excursions, with the added advantage of a discounted price!
Discover 10 emblematic excursions from our programs in our latest blog post!
[NEW]
The all-inclusive formula will be on board from August 2024!
New for the start of the Mekong season on our cruises between Cambodia and Vietnam: the 'all-inclusive' formula with drinks at the table and at the bar also applies to this destination, as to all* the others in our catalogue.
Cruises along the Mekong will resume at the end of August, a period when the countryside is lush and green, tourist sites are moderately busy, and activity is intense in the rice fields and villages. It's the ideal opportunity to discover a different face of Asia by water, and to enjoy the highlights along this mythical river.
Our 9 to 17-day itineraries between Cambodia and Vietnam take place aboard the five elegant boats that make up our fleet on the Mekong. We offer all top-of-the-range services in an authentic and exotic atmosphere. Each cabin is equipped with every convenience and comfort. The restaurant, where all meals are served during the trip, offers delicate, finely prepared cuisine in a warm setting, with large picture windows offering panoramic views.
Cruising the Mekong offers a charming and atypical way to discover South-East Asia. Our range of cruises in Vietnam and Cambodia invites you to explore the ancient traditions of Asia.
From the monumental majesty of the ancient Kingdom of the Khmers with a visit to Angkor Wat, to boat trips through the floating markets and typical villages of the region, to the natural serenity of Halong Bay, the sacred temples and traditional Khmer dances, every discovery promises to be enriching and unforgettable.
To celebrate the launch of the season, we're offering some exceptional discounts!
