Seabourn Unveils New Summer 2025 Itineraries

Ultra-luxury cruise line Seabourn has unveiled its new collection of itineraries for Summer 2025. With many meticulously crafted voyages focused on giving guests the ultimate luxury- choice. From culinary voyages in the Mediterranean to visiting the charming countryside of the British Isles to taking in the stunning scenery and glaciers of Alaska, these itineraries have been crafted to ensure everlasting cruise holiday memories. With itineraries ranging from 7-52 days, a plethora of late-night departures, and overnights that allow guests to enjoy more time in port and fully immerse themselves in the culture.

Alaska with Seabourn Quest

Immense forces of nature buffer Alaska from outside influences, making it the perfect summer retreat for the guest seeking an escape into the wilderness. It is a world where ravens, eagles, bears and salmon still exercise eminent domain. Where a miles-long glacier shimmers under a timeless sky. Cruising the Inside Passage on one of Seabourn’s small ships grants guests unparalleled intimacy with the wild. Venture further into this vast wilderness by experiencing the Hubbard Glacier up close from a Zodiac, paddling a kayak among wildlife in the Inian Islands, or simply take in the majesty of million-year-old glaciers from your veranda. Seabourn Quest’s 2025 Alaska season features 18 sailings from May to September. Voyages are all 7 days on two unique itineraries sailing between Vancouver, British Columbia and Juneau, Alaska with the option to sail roundtrip from Vancouver on the 14-day immersive Alaska Glaciers, Fjords & Inside Passage combination voyage.

The on-board Expedition Team is exclusive to Seabourn and includes experienced kayak, zodiac and hiking guides as well as academic experts in Alaskan natural history and wildlife—each of whom shares their expertise in lectures as part of the Seabourn Conversations programme, engaging guests in casual conversations at leisure, and provide insights on deck during scenic cruising.
