Incoming Swan Hellenic ship’s debut programme released

Swan Hellenic has unveiled its full 2023 programme of “cultural expedition cruises” featuring every continent and all three of its ships.

SH Diana (pictured), the line’s third and largest vessel, is slated to launch next year and will operate in the Mediterranean initially before switching to the Red Sea as well as offering sailings along east Africa.

Prices for the 11-day Eastern Madagascar & Mozambique sailing departing from Mombasa on November 4, 2023, start from £6,737.

The 13-day Holy Land, Suez Canal and Jordan voyage on SH Diana, departing from Limassol, Cyprus, on October 3, 2023, is priced from £6,886.

Latest vessel, SH Vega, is currently operating its maiden cruise in the Arctic but debut ship SH Minerva is docked in Fray Bentos, Uruguay, according to marine tracking website CruiseMapper.

The line is in the process of buying SH Minerva from sanctioned Russian-owner leasing company GTLK Europe.

SH Minerva will be based in the Pacific next year, while SH Vega will offer sailings in the Atlantic and west Africa after completing its maiden season in the polar regions.

Savings of up to 30% off brochure prices are available for all bookings made by the end of September 2022, the line confirmed.
