The ship includes a 24 hour room service, plus a full butler service in selected suites. You can relax knowing that all on-board gratuities and service charges are also included in the cost of your cruise. One of the musts you have to do is get your daily planner when travelling with SAGA. As each cruise will have fantastic little touches with special surprises which are included in the planner. These change all the time depending on where the cruise travels to and the time of the year. Two years ago was the anniversary of the Battle of Britain so, to coincide with it every time the ships left the port of Dover they would have Spitfires going over the ship. When they travel to Gibraltar they have the national choir serenade you inside of the rock while giving you historical information about how John Lennon had his first marriage in Gibraltar and inside the rock is where the women and children hid during the war. In a nutshell, Saga will go above and beyond to give you some truly special moments. Cruise Ships SAGA Pearl 2 Saga Pearl II is a modern, yacht-like small ship sailing luxury cruises to exciting and inspiring destinations the world over. The Pearl is the smallest in the fleet with capacity for just 449 guests, the atmosphere on-board Saga Pearl II is friendly and intimate.

An informal atmosphere and contemporary approach make sailing across the seas a very pleasant holiday with Saga Cruises. With a huge array of amenities and a personalised approach, Saga Sapphire is a ship that radiates magnificence. SAGA Spirit of Discovery The Saga Spirit of Discovery will be Saga’s brand new ship. It is awaiting its launch in 2019, the Spirit and is said to be completely redefining the luxury and comfort of a Saga cruise. Donning a classical style, the majestic interior and facilities offer a step into the past with a contemporary touch that keeps the British atmosphere that Saga's ships carry. What is the biggest selling point of this new cruise? Well, every luxurious cabin offers guests their own private balcony. This new fantastic ship will hold 999 passengers.
