 SeaDream Yacht Club:
World's Best Travel Experience?


In 2006, readers of Conde Nast Traveler ranked SeaDream Yacht Club as one of the top 100 travel experiences worldwide. In fact, SeaDream was the only cruise company to be included in the listing. The other 99 winners were all hotels and resorts. Additionally, readers voted SeaDream “World’s Best Small Passenger Shipping Line,” and the company achieved the highest overall rating of any cruise company — large or small. I boarded a SeaDream vessel to find out for myself if SeaDream truly merits the awards and accolades. What I discovered may surprise you. My question was this: How can a cruise company operating two ships that are more than two decades old outperform all others?

Captains Hike

Captain's Hike

One of the unique programs that SeaDream Yacht Club offers is the Captain's Hike. SeaDream II Captain Terje Willassen is an outdoor enthusiast. He tries to lead two or more activities per week. It's a real treat to hang with the captain in port and to get a little activity also. read more and view video

Simply The Best

After sailing on SeaDream II, I'm better qualified to answer the question I posed at the outset of my cruise, and that was: How do SeaDream's twin yachts, both more than 20 years old, outperform all others? read more and view video
