Seven Seas Voyager Cruises

Life aboard Seven Seas Voyager
Until September Seven Seas Voyager visits Iberia, the UK, Iceland, Greenland, Norway, and the Baltic states to Russia. In November 2016 Voyager begins a series of sectors that travel east through the Suez, Subcontinent and Singapore to East Australia. The first quarter of 2017 is in Australasian waters, and then until October 2017 she sails the Mediterranean. Voyager again heads to E and SE Asia, and departs Singapore for Australia and NZ early February 2018. These are genuine ‘discoverer’ voyages. All cruises are port-intensive, and focus on top-range shore excursions. Mariner is an all-suite, all-balcony ship. Passengers spend more time in these 5-star plus suites than on most other ships afloat.

Entering service in 2003, Voyager measures 42,363 GT and carries 708 passengers. Significantly, the large majority of guests are repeat passengers. This vessel boasts the highest staff-to-guest ratio in the industry. Full room service offers all dining options. All dining, beverages and gratuities are included in the fare. The wide choices of public rooms, lounges and clubs allow for an un-crowded feel. The atrium is the social centre of the ship with a cozily furnished "Coffee Corner." Entertainment includes Broadway-style productions, headline artists, the ship’s orchestra, and remarkably informative destination-specific lectures directed to intelligent passengers. On selected cruises children have access to the Club Mariner children's programs. Typical passengers appear to be 40+, affluent and quite well travelled. Check dress code requirements before sailing. Complimentary self-service launderettes are available.

Food and Dining
The Compass Rose Dining Room has large ocean-view windows and open-seating dining - choose when and with whom to dine - for all meals. Complimentary wines are served during dinner. Signatures (by reservation) offers authentic French cuisine under the auspices of Le Cordon Bleu of Paris. By way of contrast, Prime 7 (also by reservation) is a contemporary American steakhouse that serves multiple courses, also including other meats and seafood. For an entertaining meal dine at Latitudes, with its show kitchen. La Veranda is a large venue for breakfast, al fresco lunch buffets, and dinner, set in more casual surroundings.

Every afternoon High Tea is served with scones and other delicacies in the Horizon Lounge. Complimentary coffees and soft drinks are available throughout the ship at all times. All beverages and gratuities are included in the fare. For fast-food items there is an outdoor grill alongside the pool.

Entertainment
The Constellation Theatre is a two-decked showlounge that features production shows, concert music, headline entertainers, and cabaret acts. Soloists and musical groups provide live entertainment in several lounges and bars. Dancing is popular and a gentleman host is aboard each cruise. Horizon Lounge is the most popular venue, with an active bar, dance floor and piano. For those who choose there is an elegant casino.

Enrichment programs include noted guest presenters who lead lectures, classes and workshops. The Internet Cafe helps you maintain contact with the outside world, and is complemented by instructive computer classes. Wireless access throughout the ship is available for a nominal fee. Sporting amenities include a large heated pool, two whirlpools, table tennis, golf driving, Canyon Ranch exercise classes, and gymnasium. Spa-beauty services are world class.
