CHOCOLATECRUISE
from Radisson Seven Seas Voyager

It's truffles and flourishes of chocolate when Radisson's 3rd annual chocolate cruise sets sail from Fort Lauderdale for seven nights filled with chocolate lovers' dreams. The stops at Nassau, San Juan, St. Thomas and Grand Turk are interspersed with two days at sea - plenty of time to learn about the history of chocolate (it has strong ties to the Caribbean), its restorative properties, and of course, enjoy plenty of chocolate demonstrations and tastings.

John Scharffenberger, America's top boutique chocolate maker and the Seven Seas Voyager guest pastry chef, will take you on a tasty tour of our favorite confection. From bean to bon-bon, we explore how chocolate has journeyed from a five-cent bar to a boutique treat. Whether you like your chocolate bitter or sweet, pale or dark, you'll be an expert chocolatier by the time you disembark after the guest chefs have shined a Spotlight on Chocolate for the holidays.


Following closely in the wake of the Seven Seas Mariner, the new 700-guest Seven Seas Voyager is the world's second all-suite, all-balcony ship and the second to feature a restaurant operated by Le Cordon Bleu® of Paris. There are four main dining venues, surprising for a ship of her size. The Voyager also features some of the highest space and service ratios at sea, and her suites are the largest "lead-in" suites in the industry.

There are four single, open-seating restaurants plus the Pool Grill - a surprising number for a ship of her size!

Measuring a minimum of 356 sq. ft., the Seven Seas Voyager features the largest "lead-in" suites at sea.

You'll be tempted to abandon any thoughts of going to bed at a sensible hour, as you enjoy an after-dinner drink in one of the many lounges.
