Top 10 things I like

about the Voyager

luxury cruise ship

All-suite, all-balcony
All the cabins on the Regent Seven Seas Voyager luxury cruise ship are suites. Each has a separate seating area plus a balcony with an unobstructed view.

Spaciousness
The Regent Seven Seas Voyager is a mid-sized liner yet carries a maximum of only 700 passengers (similar-sized liners usually carry twice that number). It never feels full, even when everyone is aboard.

Personalized service
The service staff on this luxury cruise ship is professional, gracious and attentive. You are treated as an individual, not a number. Overall, there are 447 crew members for 700 passengers.

Stylish ambiance & lifestyle
The Regent Seven Seas Voyager ambiance is luxurious, tasteful and refined. The travel lifestyle is relaxed and unpretentious.

Quality dining
The food quality and presentation aboard the Regent Seven Seas Voyager luxury cruise ship are among the best on the high seas. And you can dine in four different restaurants.

First-rate entertainment
The music and performances are upbeat, engaging and polished - geared for discerning audiences.

Enlightening shore excursions
They are conducted on a higher cultural level than on most cruise lines. And groups are smaller.

Sophisticated passengers
Most are broadly traveled, well-educated, affluent, and successful in their fields. Your fellow passengers are upmarket but not uptight. They are friendly and easy to meet. Demographics: Most are couples spanning a broad range of ages (mainly 30s to 70s, with the 50s and 60s being the largest segments). A high percentage are North Americans. Some work, some are retirees.

Peaceful & quiet environment
Guests are civil and considerate of others. And, children aboard this luxury cruise ship are well-mannered and few in number.

All-inclusive fare
Onboard food, wine, cocktails, entertainment and gratuities are included. No need to sign chits, calculate tips, and scrutinize a long detailed bill of charges at the end of the cruise.

Is the Voyager flawless?

No. It is impossible for any luxury cruise ship to be perfect given the complexity of a vessel and the many staffers involved. Blunders, lapses and other faults are bound to occur. However, on my Voyager cruise, deficiencies were few and far between.

Awards

The Regent Seven Seas Cruises and its Voyager have won coveted awards from leading print and online travel publications, including Conde Nast Traveler.
