Swan Hellenic celebrates year of cruise return with new dedicated saving fares

Cultural expedition cruise pioneer welcomes inaugural bookings with saving fares and additional offers worldwide

Cyprus, 18 January 2021: Swan Hellenic has announced it’s new dedicated saving fares, celebrating the year that cultural expedition cruising returns to the world, crowned by the Antarctic Polar Eclipse maiden cruise of the first of its three 5-star ice class ships, Minerva, in November.

Full information on these additional country-specific offers, ranging from flights to onboard spending, is available from Swan Hellenic’s website and its local offices and agents.

What’s more, that’s all without any compromise in the iconic company’s industry-leading all-inclusive cruises, which even include each guest’s pre-night hotel and transfers.

Plus, guests can book with total confidence, knowing they’ll always be protected by Swan Hellenic’s no-quibble cancellation policy, which allows guests to cancel any cruise booked by 31 March 2021 up to 30 days prior to departure and receive a Future Cruise Credit valid for 2 years.

With close personal service available through its own offices and top partners across Asia, Australia, India, North America and Europe, guests of the old Swan Hellenic and a whole new generation of explorers can benefit from close personal support to choose from cruises of the Antarctic, Pacific, Caribbean, Scotland, Nova Scotia, Greenland and Eastern Russia to see what others don’t.

All in all, thanks to Swan Hellenic, it’s now easier than ever to be sure of something really special to look forward to when the pandemic’s passed.
