If your anything like me and have binge watched all the episodes of "below deck" that had you dreaming of your own bespoke yacht holiday, Only to come to the realisation that your budget doesn't quite stretch that much. Seabourn Cruises is the ideal alternative, offering an intimate and luxurious experience on the high seas.

I was fortunate enough to have the pleasure of being at a presentation of Seabourn Cruises by Tom Andrews on a Uniworld Trip in Amsterdam. Tom Andrews has been with Seabourn for almost 2 years and he shared his passion for Seabourn and their position in the luxury cruise market. What makes Seabourn unique is that their ships are smaller compared to mainstream cruise lines, allowing them access to the off beaten path destinations similar to yachts. They are able to visit more ports and therefore visit more places. All the suites are ocean facing suites ensuring breath taking views.

The all inclusive dining experience includes champagne and caviar, you can't more luxurious than that. Dining onboard a Seabourn cruise is a culinary experience. There are several venues from A mediterranean venue to experiencing freshly prepared sushi on board.

There are also some culinary events or experiences for the guests, for example Guests can visit local markets to gather fresh ingredients which are then used in an onboard dining experience later that evening. Or an evening at Ephesus, an exclusive event for Seabourn guests, featuring champagne and canapes amidst ancient ruins in Turkey accompanied by live orchestral music.

What Seabourn offers is a luxurious experience that combines the intimacy of yacht travel with the amenities of a high end cruise. Their focus is on unique destinations, exclusive events, creating memories on a remarkable holiday at sea. Destinations include Mediterranean, Caribbean, Alaska, Middle East, South America, Asia and Northern Europe.
