The World’s Most Awarded Cruise Line has earned top honours in three major categories in Signature Luxury Travel & Style’s Best-of-the-Best Luxury Cruise Awards 2019.

The prestigious awards bestowed Crystal Cruises’ two ocean-going ships, Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity, first place for ocean ships with more than 750 passengers for the second year in a row, while Crystal Yacht Cruises’ Crystal Esprit achieved top honours for ships with fewer than 250 passengers for the third year in a row, celebrating the yacht’s acclaimed boutique style. Highlighting the celebrated Crystal Experience on Europe’s most loved waterways, Crystal River Cruises takes the crown as the ‘Best-of-the-Best’ river cruise line in Europe.

Judged by a panel of 18 leading luxury cruising experts and travel advisors, the awards rate the major cruise lines across six key categories – suites, service, dining, wellness, itineraries and shore excursions – each cruise line scoring points to determine the overall award winners.

“Crystal’s Australian office has been open for over two years now and we are incredibly grateful to the luxury travel advisor community for their continued support.” says Karen Christensen, Crystal’s Senior Vice President & Managing Director for Australasia. “Awards like these – which are decided by cruise experts and travel advisors who are actively working with travellers to create the very best holiday experiences – are extremely gratifying.”

Crystal maintains an unwavering dedication to offering the very best standard of personalised service and attention to each luxurious detail across all of its experiences, including the company’s acclaimed private butler service offered with all guest suites on River and Yacht cruises and Penthouse accommodations on Ocean cruises. Along with adventures and more choices available to guests seeking to customise their luxury holidays, Crystal’s genuine service, spacious design and luxurious amenities have shaped the company’s credo over the decades.
