Great experience
"We love cruising with Virgin. We are not big cruiser but now anytime we do decide to cruise it will always be on Virgin. The ship is gorgeous, the food is great, the drinks are great and the crew is EXCELLENT."
Great Experience, Great Service

Virgin Voyage for the win!
"Best trip ever! Thank you Virgin for another amazing cruise! We had a complete blast dressing up in Halloween costumes! Best everything Crew, food and drinks!"
Virgin Voyages doing it right!
"Fantastic voyage aboard the Scarlet Lady! So different from any other cruise line. Every sailor we met loved the “adults only” voyage and would definitely plan on booking again with Virgin in the future."

We’ve always dreamed of creating transformational experiences for our Sailors. And being recognized for it in so many ways is incredibly heartwarming. Take a peek at our accolades and the humbling awards that motivate us to sail forward.
You could say we’ve got a past…
It’s true. Virgin has always done things differently. But one thing remained the same: the unmistakable RockStar Service. And that’s what we’re doing with Virgin Voyages — tying the delights only a Virgin brand can offer with a superyacht-like experience you’ll never forget.
