Swan Hellenic expands for 2005-06
Swan Hellenic has added 19 additional ports of call and a city stays programme to its 2005-06 discovery cruises brochure.
The company is matching 45% early booking discounts offered by its sister lines under the Carnival UK umbrella. The offer is available for reservations made before 31 October.
There are further savings of up to 60% for passengers booking a second consecutive cruise, up to 50% discounts for children travelling with two full fare paying adults, and special savings for groups and past passengers.
The brochure, which goes on sale on 23 June, has been redesigned with a more ‘user-friendly’ approach with prices and itineraries featured on the same page.
The new city stays programme is aimed at encouraging travellers to add-on time in the European cities that cruises start and end in, such as Valetta, Venice, Cyprus and Istanbul.
Destinations added for 2005-06 include Iceland, Slovenia, the Italian towns of Savona and La Spezia, Kristiansand in Norway, Helsingborg and the Croatian island of Brac.
New breaks on long haul itineraries include pre or post-cruise tours to Iguacu Falls and Buenos Aires in South America; the rainforests of the Brazilian Amazon; Easter Island; Costa Rica; Machu Picchu in Peru; the ‘Pride of Africa’ railway in South Africa and Chile’s Torres Del Paine National Park.
