Virtuoso® reveals the network’s Best Cruise Lines of 2023

Virtuoso® reveals the network’s Best Cruise Lines of 2023

- August 21, 2023

Virtuoso®, the leading global network specialising in luxury and experiential travel, announced the winners of the network’s “Best Cruise Lines” awards on Monday, 14th August 14th, at the 35th annual Virtuoso Travel Week.

Taking place 12th – 18th August, Virtuoso Travel Week has brought together thousands of top luxury travel professionals, travel advisors and preferred partners, from more than a hundred countries. The top cruise partners of 2023 were honoured at “Cruise Night Out,” one of the hottest tickets of the week, which hosts the network’s cruise partners and its cruise-focused advisors for a by-invitation-only celebration.

Nominations come from both Virtuoso advisors and preferred partners in the categories of Best Ocean Cruise Line, Best River Cruise Line and Best Expedition Cruise Line. Advisors then vote to determine the winners. As the cruise category expands in market size and consumer demand, competition is fiercer than ever.  This year’s winners share a commitment to excellence, innovation, support of the travel advisor community, client satisfaction and, of course, unforgettable travel experiences in some of the world’s most extraordinary destinations.

And the winners are Silversea Cruises (Best Ocean Cruise Line), Uniworld Boutique River Cruises (Best River Cruise Line), and Quark Expeditions (Best Expedition Cruise Line).
