Exclusive Distinctive Voyages Amenities

DISTINCTIVE VOYAGES HOST

On a Distinctive Voyages cruise, you will have easy access to a Distinctive Voyages Host who is always ready to answer any questions you might have. Your extremely knowledgeable Hosts are carefully selected because they know both the ship and the itinerary inside and out. They will personally take care of you throughout your voyage, from answering your questions to helping with restaurant and spa reservations, as well as recommending off-the-beaten-path port experiences.

PRIVATE WELCOME RECEPTION

The Private Welcome Reception is your introduction to your exclusive group. Occurring early in the cruise, at this reception you will meet and become acquainted with the other VIPs in the Distinctive Voyages group. These acquaintances will soon become fast friends as you see them throughout the journey. The reception will be organized by the Distinctive Voyages Host, who will discuss the itinerary in depth and answer any questions you might have. It truly is a wonderful way to begin your cruise adventure.

EXCLUSIVE SHORE EVENT

Guided by local experts, your Exclusive Shore Events are specially chosen excursions that reveal the true nature of the people and places you will visit, helping you connect to the culture in a very personal and unforgettable way. These excursions are only available to the members in your group. Some cruise lines may offer excursions to the general public that are similar, but Distinctive Voyages adds experiences to make them extra special for you.

PRIVATE CAR & DRIVER

Break away from the crowd and enjoy a personal tour with a Private Car & Driver. This unique amenity includes the option to choose between a private car and driver with either a pre-selected tour, or you and your driver can customize where you would like to go. Additionally, in lieu of this amenity, you can choose a shipboard credit to use at your discretion. Available only on select luxury cruise departures, this special amenity replaces the Exclusive Shore Event with an unforgettable excursion that is completely yours to enjoy.

CULINARY COLLECTION

Culinary-themed sailings are ideal for food and wine enthusiasts. Each of these departures celebrates a world of epicurean delights and features demonstrations from world-renowned chefs, cooking classes, galley tours, wine and spirit tastings and delightful meals focused on regional cuisine.
