Discover the world: … with everything included

SMART TRAVELLERS HAVE ALWAYS EMBRACED THE IDEA OF seeing the world on a cruise, visiting exotic lands with the convenience of having one's hotel room move with you. And for 50 years, Swan Hellenic has been the leader in discovery travel for the seasoned, upscale passenger who seeks a learning experience and appreciates top-of-the-line comfort in the bargain. With destinations around the globe, from the well-known to the undiscovered, Swan Hellenic's concept of effortless exploration has brought its loyal guests a new dimension in travel.

A hallmark of Swan Hellenic's commitment to bringing adventure back to cruising is its award-winning program of distinguished guest speakers and inclusive shore excursions led by seasoned local guides. An appealing global destination mix, which includes "must see" places and hidden treasures, brings the excitement of travel to a more intimate and personal level, whether the destination be North America, Southern Africa, Europe, South America, the Middle East or the fjords of Scandinavia. Swan Hellenic's six-star-rated 694-passenger Minerva II sails the world with mega-ship luxuries and small-ship service and ambiance. Discriminating travellers appreciate the company's all-inclusive policy, too: everything from meals, transfers and shore excursions are included in the fare.
