Orient Lines specialises in providing destination-oriented cruise vacations to the most exciting and exotic corners of the globe.
Every itinerary is designed as a complete cruise-tour, which means that first-class or deluxe hotel stays are included in major cities, like Athens, Sydney and Singapore before and after your cruise.
And so are the city sightseeing tours, transfers, baggage handling, and a hospitality staff to assist you in finding the best restaurants, sights and shops. Extra benefits like these have earned Orient Lines the "Best Cruise Value" and Best Itineraries awards from the World Ocean & Cruise Liner Society.
Orient Lines is famous for the strong relationships it builds with its guests, many of whom have embarked on more than 20 journeys on the Marco Polo, sailing again and again with the ship's long standing crew.
Every Orient Lines itinerary provides its own fascinating ports of call and a distinct mix of attractions. The focus is very much on destinations and new discoveries, whether it is distinct attractions such as an ice station, visiting major penguin rookeries, fur seal colonies or venturing to the lost city of the Incas.
The Marco Polo cruises to several trans-global destinations including Antarctica, South America, the Mediterranean and Greek Isles, Scandinavia and the Baltics. Guests gain an in-depth exposure to the numerous destinations on offer and become fully immersed in the culture of each place visited. Even the menus and entertainment reflect the destinations.
Styled in the grand tradition of a classic ocean liner, Marco Polo offers every four-star amenity, including an elegant dining room, an informal bistro, lounges, casino, fitness centre, swimming pools and indoor/outdoor Jacuzzis. Talks by guest lecturers enhance the destination experience on longer cruises.
