What is a gourmet cruise?


If cruise ships are known for anything, it’s their dining. Early morning snacks, freshly cooked breakfasts, old fashioned elevenses, relaxed lunches, traditional afternoon teas with all the spectacular trimmings, gourmet multi-course dinners and late-night nibbles - you certainly won’t disembark hungry.

But it’s not just about quantity, today’s luxury cruise ships deliver the highest standards of cruising with many retaining celebrity chefs as consultants. Your dining experience will match that of any Michelin star restaurant as you savour the starched linen, gleaming silverware and sparkling conversation whilst obliging waiters attend to your every need.

Whether you prefer to indulge in classical haute cuisine or opt for something lighter and more contemporary, the carefully designed menus will have plenty to tempt you. Our cruise partners select the finest ingredients from land, sea and air to bring you memorable dishes that draw on diverse traditions. You’ll enjoy some of the most delicious food our world has to offer, complemented by selections from a well-stocked wine cellar.


Where can you sail on a gourmet cruise?

Let the sea air sharpen your appetite and world-class chefs delight your palate. Indulge in the best cuisine whilst relaxing at sea on one of our amazing food cruises.

France, the most romantic country in the world, is famous for its world-class cuisine. It is the perfect cruise destination for foodies, art enthusiasts and culture vultures. At the junction of the Rhone and Saone Rivers, Lyon is widely considered to be the food capital of France. Its historic restaurants are the place to be to find the very best Lyonaisse cuisine.

Experience la dolce vita in Italy, the birthplace of the Renaissance and one of the most exciting cultural destinations on the planet. World-renowned for its authentic Neapolitan pizza, gelato, risotto and decadent tiramisu, food will be a crucial part of your cruise to Italy.

Not forgetting Japan, where the cuisine is worth getting excited about. Tokyo boasts the most Michelin stars of any city in the world and with the care and precision that goes into the preparation of every dish, you are never far away from a world-class meal on a cruise to Japan.

Every single one of our cruise line partners serves incredible cuisine on board. Oceania Cruises are well-known for dishing up The Finest Cuisine at Sea® on their fleet of exquisite ships.
