Crystal rolls out cruise itineraries...

Sailings span six continents and more than 170 destinations

Crystal has released its complete line-up of itineraries for the first half of 2027 aboard Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony.

This follows the recent unveiling of Crystal’s highly anticipated 2027 World Cruise, a 140-night grand voyage aboard Crystal Serenity to 83 destinations.

Now open for bookings, these journeys span six continents and more than 170 destinations, from French Polyneisa’s turquoise lagoons to Amazon’s lush rainforests, Japan’s centuries-old temples to the historic cities, volcanic landscapes and beautiful beaches of the Mediterranean.

Through exclusive, expertly crafted excursions by sister brand Abercrombie & Kent, guests can fully immerse themselves in local cultures and discover each destination through the eyes of renowned guides, whether spotting wildlife in Alaska, tasting wine in Chile or snorkelling among coral reefs in Fiji.

“Every voyage has been designed to allow our guests to connect deeply with history, culture and nature,” said Mario Parodi, VP of Itinerary Planning and Port & Fuel Operations for Crystal.

“With the highest standards of service, exceptional dining, entertainment and shore excursions enhanced by our sister company, Abercrombie & Kent, we ensure that every guest has the most exceptional experience.”

Across all sailings, guests will also enjoy dedicated butler service, wellness experiences, distinctive dining, live performances by international entertainers and lectures by scholars and experts in the fields of history, science and the arts.

These new itineraries follow recent enhancements to both ships, including the introduction of the first Beefbar at sea and the debut of the first and only Casino de Monte-Carlo at sea.

The recently refurbished Crystal Serenity comes with larger, redesigned suites, an extensive spa and eleven dining options, including Umi Uma from legendary Chef Nobuyuki Matsuhisa, the only Nobu restaurant at sea.

Both ships offer an industry-leading space-to-guest ratio and nearly one staff member per guest.
