On Board with Cruise Passenger Cruise Passenger

Hear about river cruising and WIN a cruise in Europe!

River cruising - it's the most relaxing holiday in the world - and the most economical way to see fabulous destinations. Rosie and Peter from cruisepassenger.com.au talk to the experts and bust the myths about this great way to travel.

We talk to Love Boat actress Jill Whelan about life on the set of the famous TV series as Princess Cruises says they will slice the price of weddings on the sea. She reveals how she was fat shamed as a teenager and what she thinks of the new genre of reality TV shows. We also focus on why retiring at sea is a risk as another venture cancels sailings. And a new Fiji adventure cruise from Captain Cook Fiji to the remote Lau islands.

Regent Seven Seas Grandeur is the world's most luxurious ship. There's a US$6.5 million art collection, the only gold-and-jewel encrusted Faberge Egg at sea. Cruise Passenger talks to the man who created Grandeur about how he was told to "blow the budget!". And we've got a limited edition piece of Faberge artwork to giveaway!

Come with us on a luxury journey down Europe's least discovered river, famous for its fabulous wine regions. Teresa Ooi and Chris Fundel take us there.

For many cruisers, luxury is about attention to detail, or having a sense of space – being away from big crowds. Time, for instance, is a luxury for some. But one thing is quite universal: the need to travel. We take you onboard three beautiful cruise lines.

Listen to our special episode about Expedition Cruising as we talk about the new breed of adventurer seeking a sense of danger and excitement. We tell you all about cruise lines like Quark and its immersive Arctic explorations and, closer to home, Ponant offering a deep dive into the Kimberley with legendary guide Mick Fogg.
