If you’re looking for a dream getaway, where pretty much everything is taken care of, then you really can’t go wrong by jumping aboard a Regent Seven Seas Cruises ship. I took a voyage on Grandeur, one of the newest in the fleet and it really was an unforgettable adventure. The all-inclusive packages available with Regent allow you to take in multiple destinations, without any of the usual hassles. The Grandeur is simply stunning. From the moment you come aboard, you can’t help but be taken with the beauty of it. It’s chic and luxurious throughout, accommodating up to 746 guests in 372 suites over ten decks, with 548 crew. There’s plenty to explore, but the grand staircase is particularly worthy of mention.
