Regent Seven Seas will be rolling our six voyages where each port of call features an overnight stay and evening shore excursions.

These voyages will be across four ships in sailing in the Mediterranean, Northern Europe and Asia.

“Regent’s history of innovation is what made us industry leaders in ultra-luxury cruising. We continually strive to elevate the unrivaled Regent experience for our discerning and well-travelled guests,” said Andrea DeMarco, President of Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

“Our Immersive Overnights collection featuring an overnight stay in every single port of call will change the way luxury travellers cruise. These extended overnight experiences will allow guests unparalleled immersion in a range of incredible global destinations. From Incheon, South Korea; to Zadar, Croatia; to Stockholm, Sweden.”

Regent Seven Seas will also offer 26 evening shore excursions created especially for those overnight stays.

These exciting evening shore excursions include an exploration of world-class art from the likes of Picasso, Rodin, and Munch in the home of a Swedish prince; sunset wine-tasting at a Tuscan villa; and a Michelin star dinner in Athens.

Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Zadar Sunset Serenade

Luxury travellers will explore the gems of the Adriatic Sea on board Seven Seas Voyager, including Zadar, Croatia.

Cruising the sheltered waters of Jazine Bay as the sun begins to set, the ancient city is perfect for leisurely exploration.

Guests will disembark at the Sea Organ, a set of marble steps that plays harmonic sounds when seawater rushes through pipes fitted with whistles beneath the steps. The phenomenon is adjacent Greeting to the Sun, a solar-powered monument that creates an imaginative light show each evening. Both multi-sensory attractions helped fuel Zadar’s resurgence.

In the peninsular city centre, portions of Roman-built fortified walls and an excavated forum whose construction started during the reign of Augustus – the first Roman emperor – are the perfect setting for exploration.

Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Sunset Wine Tasting & Dinner at a Tuscan Villa

Regent will take you to Villa Dianella, an elegant Tuscan estate. This is where the famed Medici family hunted during the 16th century.

As an introduction to the area, travellers will first explore the nearby town of San Miniato. Perched atop a ridge high above the Arno Valley, the town is known for its white truffles, including a record-breaking one that weighed well over four pounds.

Following a full day of exploration, gourmands will enjoy a wine tasting and beautiful evening meal at Villa Dianella. All prepared with locally sourced Tuscan ingredients.

The seasonal menu may include a paccheri pasta with pecorino cheese and a wonderfully seasoned chicken dish with roasted vegetables.

The tasting in the wine cellar will be just as memorable as the selections will be organic – guests will sample a blend made with Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and perhaps an Orpicchio white varietal.

Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Seoul Night & Temple Cuisine

In Seoul, South Korea explore landmarks that define the capital’s past and present at night, when the sprawling urban landscape is beautifully illuminated.

Few places in Seoul are more historic than Gwanghwamun Square, which has been a public gathering place for centuries. It features statues of two revered figures – King Sejong, who developed a phonetic system for writing the Korean language. And there is also a statue of Yi Sun-sin, a brilliant 16th-century admiral renowned for his victories over the Japanese navy. A delightful meal of dishes that originated in Buddhist temples will follow. Temple cuisine is typically devoid of pungent vegetables such as onions and garlic as they are thought to hinder spiritual practices.

For a glimpse at Seoul’s vision for the future, stops to photograph Dongdaemum Design Plaza, a cultural hub with a bold amorphous design, and pausing at Sebit Islets – the world’s first floating cultural space – are essential. Sebit Islets will look especially dramatic with its LED lights reflecting off the Hangang River.

The collection is absolutely astounding as it contains priceless pieces in every imaginable category, including calligraphy, textiles and jade ware. A short walk will bring guests to the Super Brand Mall for an extraordinary meal of traditional Shanghai cuisine.

Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Private Evening at Prince Eugen’s Waldemarsuddde

In the Swedish capital Stockholm, browse the impressive collection of art at Waldemarsudde, the former home of Prince Eugen. It has been converted into an acclaimed museum that will open after-hours exclusively for an evening event.

Born into royalty, Eugen became one of Sweden’s foremost landscape painters and an avid art collector with a keen eye. His early 20th-century Art Nouveau residence holds many of his finest works and objects of art that the prince collected over the years.

The estate and museum opened to the public shortly after his death in 1947 and has since become one of Stockholm’s most popular attractions.

 On the tour through Waldemarsudde, expect to see the prince’s studio, his private living quarters and some of his most inspiring landscapes.

Although the collection features mainly Swedish artists, it also includes works by Picasso, Rodin and Edvard Munch. Even the setting of Waldemarsudde on the island oasis Djurgården is magnificent.
