ROYAL Caribbean’s Celebrity Cruises has unveiled a range of in-depth, multi-day land tours, which can be sold together with its sailings.
Michael Bayley, president and CEO, Celebrity Cruises, said: “With the introduction of Celebrity Explorations, we are giving our guests more of what they value and expect from Celebrity – authentic, immersive and upscale vacation experiences that combine luxury hotels, guided tours by our destination concierges, and the best in local dining with a unique selection of ocean cruises and more.
“Our new style of travel pairs two exceptional vacations in one,” he added.
There are over 20 different Celebrity Explorations itineraries available for cruises from 2015 to 2016.
Highlights include a three-night tour covering Sydney and the South Pacific that will take guests through the highlights of the city – the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, and Bondi Beach – before boarding Celebrity Solstice.
This itinerary is available for sailing between January 18 and March 22, 2015, and October 21, 2015 and April 1, 2016.
Celebrity’s Africa & Iberian Peninsula tour is a five-night itinerary starting in Nairobi that will bring travellers to an upscale lodge in Lake Nakuru National Park and a luxury tented camp in the Masai Mara Game Reserve. Guests take part in three fully escorted expeditions before boarding Celebrity Eclipse in Southampton, England, which sails through the Canary Islands.
This is for sailings departing August 30 to October 21, 2015.
Another highlight is Celebrity’s Amazon & the Antarctic, which sees guests cruise down the Amazon for four days before sailing with Celebrity Infinity to Antarctica, and either Argentina or Chile. Travellers keen on this must travel between December 20, 2015 to February 28, 2016.
