New Cuba Cruise Line launches in Europe

New Cuba Cruise Line launches in Europe



Now Europeans can access the newly-launched Cuba Cruise breaking new

ground with its circumnavigation of Cuba. Finally Cuba's fascinating but

otherwise hard to reach ports are accessible to all. Each cruise

includes the opportunity to visit world famous beaches, six UNESCO world

heritage sites and four National Parks & Preserves, as well as in-depth

exploration of Cuba's dynamic culture. The experience offers the best

qualities of cruising and all-inclusive getaways combined with a Cuba

that few people see.



Cuba Cruise will make its European debut during ITB, the world's largest

travel show, from March 6 - 10, 2013 in Berlin, Germany.



Prices start at EU€437 double occupancy for a seven-night cruise. The

upcoming season will run from December 16, 2013 to March 31, 2014 with a

total of 15 departures.



"It is exciting to offer something truly unique to the travel market,

and Cuba Cruise is certainly the only offering of its kind," said Cuba

Cruise President Dugald Wells. "We provide the best of both worlds to

our guests – a top-notch all inclusive cruise experience and the type of

in-the-know exploration of Cuba's remarkable sights, sounds, flavours

and history that is usually reserved for locals only."



Your Cuba, Accessible & Authentic



CONTINUES BELOW



The line's launch diversifies traditional Cuban travel options to

provide access to the true, authentic Cuba, encouraging guests to "find

your Cuba" beyond busy beaches and high-occupancy hotels.



Easy To Reach with Havana & Montego Bay Embarkation Ports



Cuba Cruise's 480 stateroom, 25,611 tonne ship Louis Cristal will

circumnavigate Cuba with cruises departing from the exciting and vibrant

city of Havana. There will also be cruises departing from Montego Bay in

Jamaica making the experience even easier to access. The 7-night cruise

will call at six unique ports, offering opportunities to visit Cuba's

fabled colonial cities where time stands still, wilderness nature

preserves unseen by nearly all visitors before now, and of course, some

of the most beautiful beaches in all the world.



Quality Imported Food Meets Cuban Entertainment



Each cruise will feature the company's signatures of impeccable service

and delicious meals served onboard. All dining aboard Cuba Cruise will

feature quality imported produce (mainly from Canada), beef and other

food products and specialty Cuban dishes.



Cruises will feature a first-rate entertainment program of Cuban music

and dance by local Cuban performers.
