Best adults-only cruise lines

Ambassador Cruise Line

Ambassador Cruise Line, the newest cruise line on the block, boasts an adult-focused offering targeting the 50-plus audience. Ambience, the cruise line’s flagship, operates primarily as an adults-only ship, welcoming those 18 and over aboard, meaning that passengers can enjoy the pleasures of cruising alongside adult guests. For those wanting to get away with the family, Ambassador Cruise Line does offer a small amount of multi-generational cruises each year.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines

Although Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines doesn’t market itself as an adults-only cruise line, it does offer a selection of adults-only cruises each season. Fred. Olsen believes that, for many, cruises are an escape from everyday life which is why they hand-craft adult-only voyages for parents and grandparents that want to enjoy a holiday within a grown-up environment, amongst like-minded people.

P&O Cruises

Two of the seven impressive ships in the P&O Cruises fleet are adult-only. Arcadia and Aurora sail guests to some of the world’s most exciting cities and offer overnight stays in certain ports of call. Underlying all these incredible experiences are the attentive, intuitive and thoughtful staff members waiting for you on board - which all adds up to the perfect package for a once-in-a-lifetime cruise experience.

Saga Ocean Cruises

Saga Ocean Cruises are exclusively for those aged 50 and over, so you can be sure of a relaxed, sociable and child-free atmosphere amongst like-minded people. Carrying no more than 987 guests, Spirit of Adventure and Spirit of Discovery offer a unique, boutique experience allowing for a more intimate experience. What’s more, a Saga cruise includes all the food and drink you need, so you can relax with the knowledge you’re cruising all-inclusive.
