Hapag-Lloyd Cruises is one of the leading suppliers of premium and luxury cruises in German speaking countries. A selection of their cruise itineraries are offered as bi-lingual (INT) cruises (German/English).
Our expedition and luxury cruise ships, each with its own special character, offer hundreds of destinations, on-board and shore programmes with something for everyone whatever the spontaneous mood, attractive cruise combinations, short trips to get your feet wet as well as long voyages for epicures and experts. Flexibility and tremendous variety are outstanding characteristics of Hapag-Lloyd Cruises. But one thing never changes: making your personal wishes come true and turning your visions of what a cruise should be into reality are always at the focus of our efforts. We want to make you forget your everyday cares so that you can discover how wonderful it is to live without constantly looking at the clock. A completely new kind of freedom is waiting for you. Cruises and expeditions are not only a wonderful way to travel - they are also highly individual.
No matter which of our ships you choose to spend your holiday on, all of them have one thing in common: they are the best in their category. Classical cruise or expedition, tuxedo or leisure clothing — Hapag-Lloyd cruises are always worth the trip.
Ships
Tipping
Tipping is not obligatory on board. Acknowledgement of particularly good service is at the discretion of each guest.
Kindergarten
We offer child care for children four years of age and older. If we have four or more children aged four or older on board, a child care specialist will go on the voyage and organise a very special children's cruise with special excursions and children's events both on board and on shore. Play, sport and creative programmes will be the order of the day from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm and from 7:00 to 9:00 pm when the ship is at sea. There are two special rooms available for supervised playing of the children; they are open outside of supervised hours as well and are equipped for all age groups. The supervision periods on days with shore excursions - as a rule six to eight hours - are set according to the lay time of the EUROPA so that parents have the option of occasionally going on excursions without their children. But besides this, we also offer shore excursions especially for children and parents. Moreover, our concierge will be happy to arrange for a babysitter (subject to charge) for children aged four or older outside of the official care times.
