Seabourn Quest

Sve veći broj naših gostiju uživa u prilici da destinacije dožive na interaktivniji, iskustveniji i participativniji način. Stvorili smo Ventures by Seabourn® kako bismo ovim putnicima ponudili uzbudljive, avanturističke dodatne aktivnosti koje su stručno planirane, profesionalno vođene i pratene od strane vještih stručnih vodiča.

Obogatite...

Na odabranim plovidbama koje uključuju Ventures by Seabourn® izlete, podijelite svoje putovanje s iskusnim ekspedicijskim timom znanstvenika, stručnjaka, prirodoslovaca i drugih. Ovi fascinantni, vrhunski stručnjaci bit će dio našeg besplatnog programa Seabourn Conversations, pružajući vam dubinsko razumijevanje povijesti, ekologije i kulture mjesta koja posjećujete. Na brodu, njihovi dragocjeni uvidi nude se kroz formalna predavanja, ali i u opuštenim razgovorima tijekom obroka ili slobodnog vremena.

U odabranim lukama i destinacijama, dodatni Ventures by Seabourn® izleti, vođeni našim Ekspedicijskim timom, pozivaju vas da istražite spektakularne destinacije kroz uzbudljive avanture na razini mora. Polazeći s vašeg broda na našoj floti čvrstih Zodiac® čamaca ili veslajući u dvostrukim morskim kajacima, ove avanture variraju ovisno o vašem itinereru, a uključuju uzbuđenja poput krstarenja slikovitim fjordovima i vodenim putovima, pješačenja po slikovitim otocima, promatranja ptica, tuljana, kitova i druge divlje faune izbliza, te promatranja masivnih ledenjaka bijelo-plave boje.

Ventures by Seabourn vs Izleti: Koja je razlika?

Prvi put predstavljeni 2013. godine, Ventures by Seabourn osmišljeni su za goste koji su sanjali o iskustvu Seabourn ekspedicije, ali nisu u mogućnosti putovati na jednom od naših ekspedicijskih brodova.

Za razliku od tradicionalnih izleta na kopnu, ekspedicijski tim je prisutan na odabranim plovidbama kako bi ponudio znanje, komentare i edukaciju o destinacijama, te vodio pješačenja, krstarenja Zodiac čamcima i kajakarenje u udaljenim područjima. To omogućuje gostima Seabourn da dožive ekspedicijske susrete s krajolicima, ali na tradicionalnim Seabourn brodovima koje naši gosti poznaju i vole.

Our guests travel with us because they want to see, hear, learn and discover new places and experiences. To ensure that our guests have memorable and enriching experiences in the over 450 ports of call we offer annually, we contract the best local agents to create and operate some 12,000 carefully curated shore experiences, offering our guests a range of choices in duration, content and the type of activity involved to fully satisfy their wishes. To assist our guests in choosing among these numerous excursion options, we are categorizing our overall Shore Experiences by Seabourn into seven ‘Collections,’ according to the general interests they are designed to captivate.

The Adventure Collection
The Adventure Collection is an array of excursions offering guests active and participatory experiences in ports, including Ventures by Seabourn™ and expedition excursions on our Expedition ships.

The Mindful Living Collection
The Mindful Living Collection consists of guided shoreside experiences in Mindful Living, designed in partnership with world-renowned integrative medicine pioneer.

The Epicurean Collection
The Epicurean Collection invites guests to explore the unique flavors of a destination by indulging their passion for tasting both traditional and contemporary foods and drinks.

The Essential Collection
The Essential Collection offers shorter-duration introductory experiences such as guided walking tours, allowing guests with general interest to learn the highlights about a port.

The Journeys Collection
The Journeys Collection offers escorted pre-, post- and mid-cruise overland experiences of two to 13 days, exploring iconic landmarks impossible to visit during a scheduled port call.

Discover the Wonders that Wait Under the Waterline in Seabourn’s Luxurious New Expedition Submarines

Consider it the ultimate luxury perk on the ultimate luxury expedition ships: a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness the wonders of the ocean floor in the comfort of Seabourn’s custom submarines.

The deeper you explore beneath the ocean’s surface, the more unique the scenery becomes, and the more secrets the sea reveals, from incredible sunken shipwrecks to stunning coral reefs to unique marine wildlife normally hidden from human view.

The only way to experience this otherworldly realm is by submarine, and at Seabourn our exacting standards for comfort and luxury mean these undersea explorations take place in custom-built submarines crafted to be the best at the sea.

Each environmentally friendly, battery-powered sub carries just seven people — six guests, three each in two clear acrylic spheres — plus the highly trained pilot guiding the journey. The intimate and innovative new exploration vehicles are capable of diving to depths of 300 meters (984 feet) offering passengers an awe-inspiring perspective of the marine world just outside. Thanks to undisturbed and undistorted views in virtually all directions you’ll come face-to-face with the wonders that lie below the waterline.

Not only will passengers be kept dry and comfortable while the submarine dives under the sea, in keeping with the ultra-luxury experience found on Seabourn, subs are outfitted with custom-embroidered leather upholstery, a Bluetooth stereo system, air conditioning, and champagne chiller so you can toast your extraordinary journey.

To memorialize your time under the sea, the subs are outfitted with a high-tech, 4K underwater video camera system that will capture your underwater experience. The videos will be screened in the Discovery Center for workshops and conversations with guests that are led by marine biologist or oceanographer Expeditions leaders.

This is truly the adventure of a lifetime. Experience it for yourself when Seabourn Venture and Seabourn Pursuit set sail for breathtaking locations and remote destinations in the Arctic and Antarctica, as well as in the Caribbean, Central and South America.

Seabourn Venture and Seabourn Pursuit's submarines are a high-profile amenity of its expedition capabilities. Itineraries where submarines may be deployed are indicated by an icon, however their use is limited by conditions of currents and visibility, cannot be guaranteed, and are at the Captain’s discretion.

One of Seabourn’s most popular guest offerings is Marina Day. Available at select destinations, this fun-filled day features complimentary watersports either from the ships’ unique, retractable Marina platform or from a beach, which is typically on the same day as when the line’s signature Caviar in the Surf and beach barbecue is offered. Guests may enjoy a wide array of water sports, including kayaks, pedal boats, donut rides, banana boats, paddle-boards, waterskiing and more. Guests can be as relaxing or adventurous as they choose to be. It’s not to be missed!

* Guests choosing to participate in Marina Day activities must be able to swim and be in good physical condition to safely mount/dismount the equipment, including in open water.

** Watersports are offered where weather and ocean conditions permit, permissions are granted by the Harbour Master, and at the discretion of the Captain.

*** Children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

For meetings and gatherings, our ships offer meeting rooms that can accommodate up to 40 guests. The meeting rooms can be arranged to guests’ specifications including theatre-style or with tables; and each of the rooms have large-screen TVs for presentations. Guests may also reserve the Card Room when available. Our crew members are happy to assist guests with meeting room reservations and setup.

Seabourn is committed to providing safe, easy, and accessible accommodations for all persons with disabilities, to the extent that is feasible. It is for this reason that Seabourn is honoured to be a part of Carnival Corp., which received the Society For Accessible Travel & Hospitality's (SATH) "Access to Freedom" award. This award is the highest honour in the travel industry that SATH presents to recognise individuals or organisations that have made the greatest strides in advancing opportunities for persons with disabilities, and for promoting the awareness of, and access for, travellers with disabilities.

The Importance of Planning Ahead

Seabourn does not discriminate against individuals on the basis of disability. We seek, to the extent feasible, to accommodate guests with disabilities. However, some needs require adequate time to prepare for a guest's arrival. It is recommended that guests make every effort to contact Guest Accessibility and to submit a Special Requirements Information form (SRI) well in advance of the departure of their cruise and/or cruise tour. We recommend submitting an SRI upon booking or a minimum of 45 days prior to departure.

Guests who are unable to care for their basic needs (e.g. dressing, eating, and attending safety drills) MUST have a capable traveling companion. The medical staff on board is not available for daily care unless an individual is hospitalised in the ship's Medical Centre. In limited situations (either on board or ashore), we may find it necessary to ask the individual to make alternative travel arrangements, such as if an individual with a disability is unable to satisfy certain specified safety and other criteria, even when provided with appropriate auxiliary aids and services.

Our vessels have specially designed suites for guests who need mobility assistance. If you have not booked one of these accessible suites but instead will be using a standard suite you need to know about some limitations that adversely impact manoeuvrability, especially ingress and egress. Most entry doors and bathroom doors in non-accessible suites measure 23 inches wide. Bathrooms have a doorsill and the bathtubs are often difficult to negotiate for guests who have limited mobility. Passageways within the suite may be too narrow for a wheelchair or scooter to manoeuvre throughout the suite.

Accessible Suites offer features such as wider entry doors to the suite and bathroom measuring a minimum of 32 inches wide, accessible showers with grab bars, benches/seats, and hand-held shower heads as well as lowered closed and towel rods.

Accessible suite numbers are detailed in the section below by ship and their locations are noted on the deck plans for each ship within the “Onboard Life” section of this website.

Note: For safety reasons, mobility devices must be stored and charged in the guest’s suite.

Attire Ashore:

Packing clothing that can be layered is the best way to plan for cruising in virtually any climate. For tropical cruises, bring light, loose-fitting garments that can be paired with a lightweight jacket or sweater. For cooler climates, pack extra layers of warmer garments such as a light top coat and some sweaters. When dressing to go ashore, it is helpful to be aware of the customs of the countries you are visiting. In some ports men and women should not wear shorts. Many cultures prefer that women wear dresses or skirts when visiting shrines, churches, mosques and temples.

Some of our more adventurous destinations like Alaska and Antarctica voyages have additional special packing requirements.

• Packing for an Alaska Cruise
• Packing for an Arctic or Antarctic Cruise
• Packing for a Kimberley or South Pacific Expedition Cruise

Seabourn dopušta samo životinje pomagače na brodu, definirane kao one životinje koje su pojedinačno obučene za pružanje pomoći osobi s invaliditetom. Ne dopuštamo gostima da sa sobom donose kućne ljubimce, terapijske/prateće životinje ili druge životinje koje ne ispunjavaju definiciju životinja pomagača. Ako imate bilo kakvih pitanja o tome je li životinja koju želite povesti sa sobom doista životinja pomagač, možete se obratiti službi za pristupačnost gostiju.

Vaš itinerar može uključivati luke s vrlo specifičnim i strogim zahtjevima koje je potrebno ispuniti prije nego što vašoj životinji pomagaču bude dopušteno iskrcavanje s broda. Molimo vas da se upoznate s uvjetima za iskrcaj životinje pomagača u svakoj luci. Najbolji izvori za dobivanje točnih informacija o potrebnoj dokumentaciji i cijepljenjima za vašu životinju pomagača su web stranica Ministarstva poljoprivrede SAD-a, lokalne carinske službe u pojedinim lukama te veterinar vaše životinje pomagača. Sva dokumentacija i zahtjevi za cijepljenje propisani su od strane državnih vlasti, a ne Seabourna. Ako vam je potrebna pomoć u pronalaženju ovih informacija, molimo kontaktirajte službu za pristupačnost gostiju.

Za ukrcaj na brod, vaša životinja pomagač mora imati važeće cijepljenje. Potvrde o statusu cijepljenja trebaju biti dostavljene službi za pristupačnost gostiju prije vašeg polaska. Također preporučujemo da sa sobom nosite evidenciju o cijepljenjima u slučaju da bude potrebna u nekoj luci. Ukoliko nemate odgovarajuću dokumentaciju i dokaz o cijepljenju potrebnom u određenoj luci ili postoje lokalni zahtjevi za karantenom, vašoj životinji pomagaču neće biti dopušteno iskrcavanje s broda. Ako vašoj životinji pomagaču bude uskraćeno iskrcavanje u određenoj luci, osoblje i posada će s vama surađivati kako bi se utvrdile moguće opcije koje vam omogućuju posjet luke bez životinje pomagača. Imajte na umu da u vašoj odsutnosti morate osigurati skrb i nadzor nad svojom životinjom pomagačem. Osim u slučajevima kada je životinji pomagaču uskraćeno iskrcavanje, nije dopušteno ostavljati životinju pomagača bez nadzora na brodu ili u vašem apartmanu u bilo kojem trenutku.

Australske karantenske vlasti promijenile su pristup prema psima pomagačima na kruzerima. Nažalost, njihov novi pristup praktički onemogućuje prihvat životinja pomagača na domaćim ili kružnim putovanjima iz Australije. Ministarstvo poljoprivrede sada ove plovidbe smatra međunarodnim putovanjem te ih stavlja pod 'biološku sigurnosnu kontrolu'. Kao kompanija, izrazito smo razočarani novim pristupom Ministarstva i uputili smo pismo saveznom ministru s molbom za povratak na prethodni način postupanja. Trenutno gosti neće moći putovati sa životinjama pomagačima na putovanjima koja završavaju u Australiji ili koja uključuju luku u Australiji nakon posjete inozemnoj zemlji. Gosti koji putuju na putovanjima koja počinju u Australiji moći će putovati sa svojom životinjom pomagačem pod uvjetom da putovanje ne završava u Australiji nakon posjete inozemnoj luci. Za dodatna pitanja molimo kontaktirajte službu za pristupačnost gostiju putem e-pošte na Access@Seabourn.com.

Your ship's small but modern basic medical facility is staffed by a doctor and a nurse. This facility is equipped to provide medical care for illness or accidents that may arise during the cruise, but is not intended to provide ongoing medical treatment. Since we are either at sea or in ports where availability of medical facilities and pharmaceutical products may be limited, we suggest you bring adequate supplies of prescription medications and other health-related items.

Onboard medical facilities are equipped to provide care for unexpected illness and accidents. These basic facilities are not intended or designed for ongoing treatment of pre-existing conditions. If you anticipate a need for medical services, your special requirement must be cleared in writing with Seabourn before your booking can be finalized.

Seabourn Cruise Line offers pre- and post-cruise transfers in luxury sedans for two guests. Private van transfers can also be arranged for a minimum of four guests traveling in the same group. A standard private sedan will accommodate two guests, two large pieces of luggage and two carry-ons. If you require additional space, requests for vans can be accommodated.

We recommend booking your transfer no later than 60 days prior to departure. To request a transfer please call Seabourn Reservations. Please be sure to have your Seabourn booking number, airport name/city, flight date, airline carrier and flight number available. Transfers for disembarkation may be either purchased in advance through Seabourn Reservations or arranged on board. Please note: Transfers between most hotels in Venice are via water-taxi.

Once you have supplied Seabourn with your flight details or hotel information, any subsequent changes must be communicated to Seabourn at least 14 days prior to embarkation. Failure to advise of changes may result in a missed transfer and charges are non-refundable. Local Seabourn representatives are unable to assist guests without advance transfer arrangements. Local representatives are independent service contractors for whom Seabourn acts solely as an agent.

Please allow sufficient time pre-cruise for airport landing formalities and transportation time to the pier in order to check-in for the ship prior to the ship departing. All guests must be checked in at least one hour prior to departure. For post-cruise transfers, please allow sufficient time for the ship to be cleared with Immigration and local Customs authorities, and the transportation time to get to the airport for departing flights. Flights booked with Seabourn take these times into consideration when booking.

Seabourn air/sea programs include group transfers between the airport and the pier on the day of embarkation/disembarkation. For deviations in air arrival/departure schedule, private transfers must be purchased separately. Seabourn land/hotel programs include appropriate transfers between the airport, hotel and pier.

Transfers from the port city airport to the ship on day of sailing and from the ship to the port city airport on the day of disembarkation are available for purchase from Seabourn. Transfers are available to Fly Cruise guests and to guests who have independent flight plans. Reservations and payment are required at least 14 days prior to your sailing date. Guests with independent flight arrangements must advise Seabourn of this information at least 14 days prior to sailing.

Carnival Corporation & plc’s environmental stewardship program is a call to action for all employees to protect our oceans, seas, and waterways from environmental harm – ensuring ecosystems, plant life, and aquatic animals thrive, both now and in the future.

Single-Use Items and Plastics Reduction

We are strongly committed to significantly reducing non-essential single-use items, including plastics, on board our ships by 50% by the end of 2021. Despite the pandemic, and the need to continue to use some single-use items for health and sanitation reasons, we continue working towards our goal.

Food Waste Reduction

Food waste is a key global issue and everyone has a part to play in reducing food loss and waste. As part of our commitment to reduce food waste we implemented a task force to improve food waste management across the fleet. We are also installing food waste Bio-Digesters to minimize the volume of food waste.

2030 Goals

• Achieve 50% single-use plastic item reduction by 2021.
• Achieve 30% unit food waste reduction by 2022.
• Achieve 50% food waste reduction by 2030.
• Increase Advanced Waste Water Treatment System coverage to > 75% of our fleet capacity.
• Send a larger percentage of waste to waste-to-energy facilities where practical.
• Partner with primary vendors to reduce upstream packaging volumes.

2050 Aspirations

• Build ships without the need to discharge to the ocean or air (zero-emission ships).
• Send 100% of waste to waste-to energy facilities.
• Partner with primary vendors to ensure near 100% reuse of packaging materials.

Food Waste Biodigesters

In 2020, we continued to install additional biodigesters throughout the fleet. Biodigesters use an aerobic digestion process that takes place within the machines and efficiently breaks down food waste. This green technology also supports and enhances operations on board, making it more efficient for crew members to manage and control food waste.
