Iâll guide you through Vikingâs new Itineraries and FAQs with Viking Cruise Line in this week's video.We talked about Viking ocean vessels, which have a capacity of 900 guests. Perfect for amenities and yet small enough to have that personalized service. You can get into the smaller, more intimate destinations and ports. Viking has been in service for 27 years and will welcome its 10th ocean vessel this year..Viking Cruises has two expedition ships and river and ocean vessels. These expedition vessels can hold 378 guests and can travel anywhere in the world. Only 1% of the world's population has ever been to Antarctica, and Viking Expedition ships also go there.They also visit the Canadian High Arctic.South America is visited when they repositioned from Antarctica to the Polar Arctic so that you can visit Patagonia, Chile, other South American hemispheres, and the Mississippi River.Vilking offers river, ocean, and expedition trips. There is something for everyone, and the locations are diverse. You can see the world in comfort..We then discussed World Cruises with Viking Cruise Line. They just listed to book their 2026 world cruise! A world cruise starts on December 19, 2025, and you are on board for 138 days.Another world cruise starts from Los Angeles to London on January 5, 2026. You board with 900 strangers and depart with 900 friends.Remember that Viking includes all your shore excursions! A great way to check that bucket list!.We then discussed Viking's quiet season Mediterranean sailing promos. Where you can get a better value by booking into the âshoulder seasonsâ - less crowds, better pricing - sounds like a win!Visit in the fall and early spring, when the weather is perfect, and you can spend time with the locals instead of the crowds..Kim then talked about the itinerary she will take: Ancient Mediterranean Treasures.This cruise starts in Athens and lasts a few days, visiting Athens, Crete, Ephesus, Rhodes, and Troy. It focuses on ancient treasures and ends in Istanbul. You will explore these areas during the cruise and learn about daily shore excursions!We discussed Vikingâs departure from Los Angeles, its visit to the Hawaiian islands, the French Polynesian islands, New Zealand, and its final destination, Sydney, Australia. Which would be spectacular. One of the main parts of that voyage is the cost of short excursions, so having that into your cruise fare, where you can choose a different short excursion every day, would be a spectacular way to explore French Polynesia in Hawaii..Viking also offers a 32-day circumnavigation of Australia, a great way to see this area. The itinerary also stops in Bali. You can also see Scandinavia with Viking!Facts about Viking:No children under 18 are on board. WiFi is included.Small Ship Cruising.Shore excursions are included.All dining venues are included, and there is no charge for specialty dining.Beer and wine with lunch and dinner.No casinos on board.The spa is included on all the ocean ships.All veranda cabins, no inside staterooms. đ Donât forget to subscribe for more luxury cruise content!

Which is a fantastic event. You listen to a concert at an ancient site with UNESCO World Heritage in Turkey. The cruise port is Kusadasi, only 20 minutes from these ancient ruins. This is a commentary event only for Seabourn Guests. .Next, we talked about Ventures by Seabourn in Alaska -where I spent my summer vacation this year, and I loved getting out and exploring Alaska the proper way. Not the commercial way, not shopping, but seeing Alaska by kayak and getting out there with ventures by Seabourn is such a phenomenal experience that is literally life-changing. This program is offered worldwide, including Norway, New Zealand, and The Kimberly, as well as Easter Island, South Pacific Australia, the Amazon, Brazil, and many more destinations. .Travel Weekly named Seabourn the Best Cruise Line in Antarctica. They just did the christening and the inauguration of Seaborn Pursuit. This is the first time that an entire people, an entire tribe, was named the godparent of Seaborn. The tribe is called the Wunambal Gaambera traditional owners..Expedition ships travel all over the world, not just to the Arctic and cooler clients but everywhere, and you can learn a little more about the history and nature of the areas.

We are talking about Maxine's recent cruise to Antarctica on Seabourn Venture.
.Welcome to this week's Cruise Chat! If you find value in this video and wish to help this channel, you can donate using this link: https://bit.ly/KathleenPenner..Video Requests: [email protected] loved meeting with Maxine and learning more about the Seabourn expedition experience.
To view the transcript, click HERE and enter "Episode 148" as the password..Why Choose Seabourn?Seabourn is a luxury small-ship company with five luxury ships and two luxury expedition ships travelling to remote destinations.Their vessels have a capacity of 458 to 604 guests, and the expedition ships have 264 guests. You will have the intimacy of a small ship experience combined with luxury and amenities.. This ship has a beautiful infinity pool, and it would be fabulous to soak in the warm water as you sail past glaciers and ice peaks. .One of the expedition ships goes to the Arctic, and one goes to the South Pacific & Australia and the Antarctic, while the other heads to the Amazon. So they can be in the med, and they can be in Brazil and the Caribbean. The infinity pools are very multi-purpose!In the lower hemisphere, you can sail from November until March, as it is their summer, with more extended daylight and pleasant temperatures. .In this week's episode, we talked about Maxine's experience with Antarctica. .Seabourn has 100% veranda outside suites. The suites start at 350 square feet and have a walk-in closet, a large bathroom with marble, a soaker tub, and a shower with double sinks..They are luxury!.Sitting on the deck, you can snuggle under a blanket provided while enjoying your views of Antarctica. .Getting from Ship to shore is easy and efficient with Zodiacsâheavy-duty inflatable sides. You will make a wet landing and step into the water with the provided boots to keep you dry. Your welcoming party will be Penguins! Now that's a great welcome! .You will also be provided with Helly Hansen Parkas - which is yours to keep..You can hike from 8:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. - it's self-guided. You don't see everyone else in the photos because you are divided into groups and take turns disembarking from the ship. Everyone goes at their own pace. You are asked not to get too close to the wildlife, but they come close to you!. When you return to the ship, all your clothing and boots will be stored in the mud room, where everyone has a locker. The Mud Room is attached to the Landing Zone. .Seabourn Venture and its expedition ships are open to people of all ages. On Maxine's voyage, there was a six-year-old and an 86-year-old. Six is the youngest age allowed on Seabourn's Expedition ships. .One of the best activities I and many others would want to do is the polar plunge! You jump off the side of the Ship. Once you come back onboard, you can sit in the hot tub or head to the sauna. I would like this because it is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and you can warm up fast! .This is perfect for single cruises because you will always share experiences with others while cruising alone. It is a social atmosphere because it's small and intimate, and you make lifelong friends through shared experiences. .Please reach out to me to book your cruise! I want you to be on board. You will be forever changed by this experience, just as Maxine was..If you want to learn more about Seabourn or any other cruise lines I have met with, please email me at [email protected]. .You can also fill out this simple form: https://bit.ly/3mxFUNd, and I will get back to you..Click HERE to see the images in this week's episode. .

Welcome to this week's Cruise Chat! This episode explores the Aqua Nera and Aria Amazon On Aqua Expeditions. .If you find value in this video and wish to help this channel, you can donate using this link: https://bit.ly/KathleenPenner..Video Requests: [email protected]. .I loved meeting with Monika and learning more about Aqua Expeditions..Why Aqua Expeditions? Aqua expeditions are luxury small-ship expeditions in remote destinations. They have State-of-the-art designed vessels. The service on Aqua Expeditions offers personalized luxury travel experiences with a 1:1 crew-to-guest ratio. .Aqua Expeditions travels to the Peruvian Amazon and the Pacaya-Samiria Reserve. All the suites maximize your views with floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the outdoors in..You can upgrade to having two connecting suites, which is only an additional 25% of the cost. - Double the space and not double the price sounds great to me! You can bring your family and have lots of room to stretch out! You can bring the family or use the second suite as your living room. The choice is yours. .Aria Amazon High Water Itinerary is:Iquitos City is where you will start and end your cruise. With stops at Acu Yacapana, Nauta Town, Casuala, Dauta Caro, Yanayacu Pucate, Giavero Lake, Pacaya Samiria National Reserve. So many unplanned stops, you can enjoy the spontaneity of this expedition cruise..The high-water season is from November to May, and the low-water season is from April to October. .The Low Water Season Itinerary starts in Nauta Town and traverses the Tahuayo and Maranon Rivers. You will also visit Puerto Prado and Yanayacu Pucate and continue cruising on the Oucayali River, Tapara River, and Cavero Lake. You will also visit the Pacaya Samaria National Reserve and have outstanding experiences in both itineraries. .Both seasons will still give you great wildlife viewing, and you will still visit the rainforest. You will fly to a city called Aitos. It's about 1 hour and 40 minutes from Lima. .The Aqua Nera has a more upscale design and departs on different days of the week than the Aqua Aria, but the itineraries are the same. .Departure Dates: Aria Amazon (Monday and Friday) and Aqua Nera (Tuesday and Saturday. She also has three Decks, a top viewing deck and two passenger decks. Aqua Nero has many dark wood tones. Nera means Black in Italian; keeping with its namesake, much of the color scheme is black. .Inside the bathroom, handmade inlay Portuguese-painted tile is present. Many details tie in the Peruvian area's history and culture. The lounge and bar areas have bamboo seating, using the materials surrounding the Peruvian rainforest. .Beer and wine are included on the Aqua Nera throughout your voyage. The ship also has a screening room (movie room) and a balanced pool table, a great addition. So you can have fun and unwind at the end of your day of exploration. .My favourite feature of the Aqua Nera is the Infinity pool! Seeing the rainforest as you soak in an infinity pool would be outstanding! .You can go Kayaking down the Amazon with Aqua Expeditions. You can also go fishing for piranhas. What a great experience!
.Aqua Expeditions also offers birdwatching and helps you take the best photos. You can also borrow one of Aqua's bikes and explore the town. .If you want to learn more about Aqua Expeditions or any other cruise lines I have met with, please get in touch with me at [email protected].
