Swan Hellenic

Swan Hellenic have long specialised in cruises with a difference to some of the great classical sites of the world. In recent years the company has hugely broadened its repertoire.



Swan Hellenic Discovery Cruises have a very enticing website which offers travellers the chance to see much of the world from the luxury of their cruise ship, the Minerva II.



Click on The Ship to have a good look at the facilities on board, from the dining areas, to entertainment and full deck and cabin plans.



Our Cruises are split between different geographical areas, from the Atlantic and the Caribbean, to the Baltic and the coast of Norway, to the Baltic Sea, Greece and Turkey, Iberia and North Africa, Italy and South America, You can search by region or by time of the year.



Full details of each cruise include the number of days, the stopping-off points and the prices, as well as the guest lecturers, who can be diplomats, leading scholars or botanists.



While the cruises in the classical world remain very alluring, look for example at those which tour the Black Sea and the Iberian peninsula, which are full of interest.



Faces of South America, scheduled for early 2007 offers a fantastic tour of the entire coast of South America for nearly three months, a once-in-a-lifetime cruise to one of the most fascinating areas of the world.
