Crystal Cruises
The difference with this cruise line is in the details. It may be the special clarity of the crystal, the extra softness of the linens, or the warm gracious greeting by name that let's you know this cruise line truly cares about you. Small as they are these refinements enhance your experience and are performed with such consistency that a Crystal Cruise vacation has become the benchmark used by all others as the luxury cruise line to outdo.
The cabins are decorated in soft colors that invite relaxation - the beds are as comfortable as yours back home. In fact, the feeling that strikes you is that you're away but "at home" on a Crystal Cruise vacation. You are completely pampered, surrounded by comfortable elegance, able to indulge in a marvelous rejuvenation.

More About Crystal Cruises...
Rejuvenation of the body may come to you from a game of paddle tennis on their full sized court, or a jog on their 360 degree Promenade Deck. Or perhaps via yoga, Pilates or aerobics classes followed by a massage in their Feng Shui inspired Crystal Spa.
Rejuvenation of the mind may take many forms. There are digital photo finishing classes in the Computer University@Sea, keyboard lessons with Yamaha, and foreign language work shops with Berlitz in the Creative Learning Institute. Almost every Crystal luxury cruise vacation will serve as host to distinguished authors, politicians and celebrities. So you will hear informative lectures and seminars as part of the new Crystal Visions Enrichment Program lecture series.

Fine Dining On Crystal Cruises
Rejuvenation of Spirit evolves every day as you enjoy the beautiful, carefully prepared and regionally inspired cuisine. There are up to five dining venues for breakfast and lunch. Daily afternoon tea is impeccably served as only Crystal Cruises does accompanied by harp in the Palm Court. Bottled water, soft drinks, and specialty coffee drinks are always complimentary.
Dinner offers up to seven dining options including the classic main or late seating in the Crystal Dining Room, as well as Asian, Italian, and a wine themed Vintage Room alternative open seating restaurants. You will also find up to two additional casual dining venues as an optional choice. And for those who wish to dine in, dinner from the Main Dining Room menu is available in cabin during the dinner hours of service.
Lavish Entertainment Onboard Crystal Ships
After your dinner meal is completed, your spirit will really start to shine as you enjoy some of the best entertainment available on land or sea. Crystal Cruises is known for their lavish Broadway-style productions. Crystal Cruises will show a new current movie every night in the Hollywood Theatre.
If you enjoy dancing, you'll want to visit the Starlite Club with sweeping ocean views for cocktails and dancing, or show off you abilities in the Stardust Club or Pulse... two of the late night clubs. On many of their sailings, Crystal Cruises offers cultured, well-traveled gentlemen hosts on board to socialize and dance the night away with the single ladies on board as part of their Ambassador Host Program. If you would rather enjoy the music but not the dance, you'll find the perfect home in either the Connoisseur Club or the Avenue Saloon.
A Preserved Attention To Detail
With all that we have said about the cabins, the restaurants, and the activities on board you would think the Crystal Cruises fleet are mega ships - quite the contrary. They are large enough to fall into the large ship category, for which they have won top honors by the coveted Conde Nast Traveler Reader's Poll year after year, but by today's standards in ship size they also fit into the medium ship size category and have taken top honors in this category from the same poll. There are two ships in the Crystal Cruises fleet, the Symphony, 51,044 tons, caries 940 passengers and the Serenity, 68,000 tons carries only a few more passengers at 1080.
Our cruise vacation rates are updated daily, but even then changes do occur. And some of our specials we cannot advertise on the internet, so ALWAYS call us to get the BEST RATE for your destination and date of travel you have in mind.
We currently offer several Crystal Cruises. To search for a specific Crystal Destination, Month or Year, please use the cruise finder at the top of the page. We look forward to helping you plan your next dream vacation!
