Crystal has unveiled its 2025 Grand Journeys itineraries, which will see Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony sail a number of extended voyages with prolonged port visits, overnight stops and optional shoreside experiences.

Following their multi-million dollar refurbishment, the reimagined vessels will offer larger, redesigned suites, specialty restaurants and restorative public spaces.

It comes after A&K Travel Group, the company owned by Geoffrey Kent and Heritage Group, purchased the two Crystal ocean ships in June 2022. Serenity, the first ship to relaunch following the purchase, successfully completed its sea trials earlier this year.

Crystal’s collaboration with Abercrombie & Kent will provide guests traveling on 2025 Grand Journeys access to a range of shoreside excursions as well as exclusive events curated by experts in the region.

Crystal to boost guest immersion with new itineraries

“We’re thrilled to announce an impressive lineup of Grand Journeys for 2025,” said CEO of A&K Travel Group Cristina Levis. “These extended itineraries offer exclusive opportunities for immersion in some of the world’s most unique and sought-after destinations.

“We can’t wait for our guests to experience these unparalleled voyages along with the unique land experiences we are creating with our sister brand Abercrombie & Kent.”

The 2025 Grand Journeys include a Roundtrip Mumbai itinerary, sailing from 7 January 2025 to 18 March 2025 and calling in destinations such as Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Ha Long Bay, Tokyo and South Korea’s Brunei.

Meanwhile, the 44-night Rio de Janeiro to Mumbai sailing onboard Serenity departs 5 March 2025 and calls at St Helena, Namibia, Wallis Bay, Cape Town, Zanzibar, Mombasa, the Seychelles, the Maldives and Sri Lanka.
