Crystal is the boutique line of large-ship cruising. Crystal’s two ships, Serenity (1080 passengers) and Symphony (940) sail the globe, including numerous opulent circumnavigations like the 109-day “Full World Cruise: Treasures of Sun and Sea.” The ships are routinely cited among industry best vessels by elite travel publications.

Crystal touts the nostalgic romance of sea voyages, featuring 2,000 volume libraries, “University@Sea” lecture series, Odyssey Art Classes and “Ambassador Hosts” who will converse, entertain and dance with guests. A high repeat passenger rate speaks to the quality of the Crystal experience.
