Star Clippers

Star Clippers

Travelers who are looking for an authentic yet modern sailing experience topped with confidence, extravagance and free of rigid structures may find Star Clippers as the perfect fit for their next journey. Star Clippers operates a fleet of three beautiful, luxurious and tall full-rigged sailing ships that travel to destinations including the Caribbean, the Panama Canal, the Mediterranean and Southeast Asia. Their cruises are casual yet elegant, with a friendly staff and relaxed onboard atmosphere so that you can plan your day as you see fit – or not plan anything at all. Star Clippers is able to offer unique itineraries, featuring ports of call that larger ships simply cannot reach, thanks to the small size of their intimate “mega yachts.” Those who are looking for a remarkable adventure of exploring local towns, sightseeing ancient ruins and structures, tasting local foods and wines, experiencing natural wonders, visiting landmark villages, religious sites and more will never fall short of disappointment. From time to time, Star Clippers also offers special themed voyages where you can discover the secrets of select topics such as cooking, photography, music, dancing, etc. Their cruises range in length from 5- to 28-nights, so there’s something for everyone interested in booking a Star Clippers cruise.

Star Clipper Dining

Dining aboard Star Clippers is so good that your taste buds will be screaming for more as you feast on the best international cuisine in a beautiful setting surrounded by antique paintings and good company. Breakfast, lunch and dinner is served onboard each Star Clippers ship in an open-seating style, leaving you free to dine whenever you want with whomever you wish. For breakfast, you can choose from a continental selection of flaky croissants, toasted baguettes and luscious pastries or a full breakfast with sweet, succulent fruit, sizzling, juicy meats and mouthwatering omlettes. Break up your exciting day with a buffet of savory seafood salads and flavor-packed specialties from the grill. If your ship stops at an island, you may even be treated to a celebratory shoreside barbecue. Take a mid-day rest at the onboard Tropical Bar for a snack buffet to keep you satisfied until dinner. End your adventurous evening with some of the most superior culinary encounters of masterpiece dishes that are expertly paired with red or white wine or by way of a la carte dining for dinner. Star Clippers requests that you wear causal-elegant attire to the dining room.
