It sounds too good to be true – right?
Well not exactly, when these cruise companies announce new departures, quite often they do have a special offer on, so that those who book early get the best deals.
This promotion is no different. The first passenger will pay the advertised price, and the second passenger will pay nothing. Be quick though, this promotion is valid only for bookings made by May 31st, 2018! A booking can be secured by paying a deposit of just £150pp.
What can you expect from your cruise?
Magellan is a sleek ship which offers a ‘traditional British experience’ of cruising. She has a passenger capacity of around 1,250 – relatively small in the era of big ocean liners which can carry up to 10,000 passengers at once.
The advantage of the smaller ship is being able to visit more inaccessible ports, particularly useful for sailing through the Fjords of Norway.
Recently refurbished, Magellan is a thoroughly modern, bright and airy, and supremely comfortable ‘home from home’.
Passenger accommodation is arranged on nine spacious decks served by eight lifts, wide corridors and stairways.
Extensive teak decking adds to sense of spaciousness, and in addition to the extensive outdoor areas, there are several beautifully appointed lounges boasting panoramic picture windows – perfect for taking in the views on the scenic cruises, or enjoying the light on days at sea.
Two beautifully appointed dining rooms, as well as a less formal buffet-style bistro, which offers indoor and outdoor dining, vie for your custom, and there are three lounge bars and three deck bars, in which to while away a convivial hour or two.
Other on-board amenities include a Night Club, Casino the magnificent, multi-tiered Magellan Show Lounge, while for the energetic and body-conscious, Magellan offers a marvellous, beautifully appointed wellness centre, gym, pools and Jacuzzis!
