Windstar Cruises taps Utrip for enhanced shore excursion trip planning

Tuesday, 16 October 20183 min read

Small ship line Windstar Cruises recently sealed a partnership with Utrip offering customers easier online trip planning for shore excursions.

The tool provides a range of filters based on interests such as arts and culture, outdoors, adventure, shopping, history, relaxation, and food and wine.

It then offers tailored suggestions in each cruise port to match the guests’ interests.

It also lists local recommendations including restaurants, museums and attractions.

"We are excited to give our guests another great way to personalize their vacation and further enrich their destination experience. The user-friendly platform shares a robust amount of information on activities and places to inspire our well-traveled cruisers," said Windstar president John Delaney.

The service begins with a trial program featuring six itineraries and will be expanded and revised based on customer feedback.

It starts with select sailings in Europe, the Caribbean and Asia.
