If luxury cruising on a ship with high-end service and 200 or fewer guests is your thing, you may want to check out Swan Hellenic.
According to its official site, this British operator was founded in the 1950s. It differentiated itself from other cruise lines with an emphasis on unique destinations, opulent comfort and on-board educational experiences courtesy of writers, academics and clergymen featured as guest lecturers.
CruiseCritic reviewers gave the SH Vega ship 4.8 out of 5 starts, noting that “sailing with SH felt like staying at a Ritz-Carlton.” Other reviewers mentioned the cruise line offers “quality time in less traveled places and an authentic experience.”
