Regent Seven Seas Cruises has launched two new shore excursion concepts to further enhance the immersive destination experiences for what the luxury cruise line is known for. The Behind the Design and Eco-Connect tours invite discerning travelers to explore destinations and landmarks from unique and original perspectives.
Behind the Design
Behind the Design tours offer incredible insights about some of the world’s most captivating and brilliant architectural feats such as the Royal Library and the Blue Planet aquarium in Copenhagen (Denmark), the Equinor office building and the Munchmuseet in Oslo (Norway) and the La Villa Mediterranée and MUCEM in Marseille (France). There is a total of 10 Behind the Design tours for the initial launch, which is exclusive to European destinations in summer 2022. Further global destinations are expected to be announced later in the year. All offer special, little-known stories and information from knowledgeable guides about the inspiration, reasoning and genius that brought these marvels to life. Other Behind the Design tours being launched focus on sites in Barcelona (Spain), Belfast (Northern Ireland), Glasgow (Scotland), La Coruna (Spain), Lisbon (Portugal) and Sete (France).
Eco-Connect
With over 150 Eco-Connect tours to choose from around the globe, guests can engage with local groups and businesses to learn about how they are working to conserve and sustain their surrounding environment. The tours, many of which provide an educational element, offer guests the opportunity to take part in a variety of experiences including sampling organic wine at a sustainable vineyard in Bordeaux (France), helping to create a paradise for sloths to roam in Puntarenas (Costa Rica) or gaining a new appreciation for the diverse flora and fauna around Hue (Vietnam) on a hike through the beautiful Bach Ma National Park. Eco-Connect tours span the globe including a wide variety of destinations such as Africa, Alaska, Asia, Australia & New Zealand, the Caribbean, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, Northern Europe and South America.
Many of the tours are included as part of Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ FREE Unlimited Shore Excursions, with select experiences offering another level of engagement as Regent Choice Shore Excursions, starting at $299 per guest. The new tours are scheduled to roll out across the fleet from spring 2022.
