Luxury Cruise Lines Experiencing five-star service, exquisite cuisine and the world’s best destinations doesn’t mean you have to stay on land. These luxury cruise lines offer guests the highest levels of service and the most magnificent accommodations available on the sea.

Professional Travel Guide does not take this term lightly, bestowing a luxury designation to only the best of the best cruise lines out there. So what makes a cruise line “luxury”? Here’s just some of the things that separate these cruise lines from the others:

  • Exceptional, individualized service
  • Five-star accommodations
  • Luxury itineraries
  • State-of-the-art facilities (spa, fitness)
  • Premium amenities (WiFi, 24 hr. room service)
  • Gourmet dining options with master chefs
