Regent Seven Seas Cruises

These stylish almost all inclusive cruises are elegant, exquisite experiences that attract active, experienced travelers with a healthy vacation budget who range in age from mid thirties to the over sixty age group on longer cruises.  These Alaska cruise ships are well equipped with health and fitness facilities but these areas are not extensive.  Food is outstanding and dress code for dinner and nightly activities include sports coat with optional wearing of ties.  Revues, cabarets and live bands perform during evenings and selected wines and spirits are complimentary at all bars.
