Legendary Journeys: Regent Seven Seas Cruises unveils 2025-26 Voyage Collection

09 June, 2023

Regent Seven Seas Cruises launches its 2025-26 season featuring new itineraries and 29 maiden ports of call. They encompass 500 port destinations across the globe. Guests can now pre-register their interest with their travel advisor, and reservations will open for public sale on June 21, 2023.

Currently, Regent Seven Seas is seeing four major luxury traveler trends:

• The first is that "travelers want to explore new places" so Regent Seven Seas is introducing itineraries brimming with new ports of call.
• Second, guests are now seeking much more immersion. So, the line's planned schedule for 2025-26 includes 124 overnight stays in ports. They're also seeking immersive shore excursions, such as those with a wellness focus, architectural slant or culinary immersion. 
• Third is a luxury trend of booking longer voyages, many further out time-wise, too. 
• And fourth, has a lot of people moving up to Regent in celebrating something, such as a 25th wedding anniversary or other special occasion. Many of those celebratory events were missed during the pandemic and now consumers desire to not only go—but to splurge, as well.

Spanning the Globe

In taking into account those luxury trends, Regent Seven Seas designed its new 2025-26 voyages to span the globe. Itineraries range from seven nights to a 154-night 2026 World Cruise, plus five "Grand Voyages." Travelers will find favorite regions to visit such as Alaska, the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and Northern Europe. But they'll also have choices of other voyages to such far-flung destinations as Australia/New Zealand, Asia, South America and the South Pacific.

Among the exotic highlights are nine new sailings in Africa and Arabia, more than during any of the line's previous "Voyage Collections." For the first time, for instance, guests will have the ability to embark at Doha, Qatar, or Port Louis, Mauritius.

Today "the exotics" strongly appeal to Regent Seven Seas' guests in their search for "a deeper dive." So, the inclusion of many more exotic ports is "a byproduct of the guests and their input." Plus, the line's itinerary team is always looking for the next great places with appropriate infrastructure. Demonstrating the "exotic element" are not simply one or two but rather five new ports of call in Madagascar, home to exotic lemurs.

Other highlights of the new voyage lineup, though, include bit more familiar, highly popular regions to visit. Guests can choose from two 14-night roundtrip sailings in Alaska on Seven Seas Explorer, North American seasonal voyages on Seven Seas Splendor, and two transits through the Panama Canal on Regent’s newest ship, Seven Seas Grandeur, which will also operate a Northern Europe maiden season.

Delving into local cultures, guests will enjoy free, unlimited shore excursions at every port of call, or they can choose from a menu of specialized "Regent Choice" tours such as "Epicurean Explorer," "Wellness," "Eco-Connect" and "Behind the Design Tours." Adding to guests' destination immersion opportunities are those previously mentioned 124 overnight stays, among them at Istanbul, Turkey; Bangkok, Thailand; and Luxor (Safaga), Egypt.

Regent Seven Seas' fares for 2025-26 voyages will include roundtrip business-class flights, gourmet cuisine in a range of specialty restaurants and al fresco dining venues, fine wine and spirits, entertainment, unlimited Internet access, free valet laundry service, and prepaid gratuities. For guests staying in Concierge-level suites and higher, Regent Seven Seas will also include a one-night, pre-cruise hotel package.
