Why Book With Paramount Cruises?
Nearly 40 years in travel. More than 20,000 customers sent off on cruise holidays. Over 2,400 independent reviews. The numbers matter, but what really sets us apart is how we look after you. We are an independent cruise specialist based in London, part of the Moresand Group, which has been going since 1987. From first-hand knowledge of the ships to our own cruise and stay holidays, our team is here to help you find the right cruise and take care of every detail.
We sail the ships we sell
Advice based on first-hand experience
A ship can look perfect in a brochure. Seeing it for yourself is another thing entirely. Our team regularly joins ship visits, inaugural sailings and cruise holidays, so we know the ships and cruise lines we recommend at first hand.
We walk the cabins, dine in the restaurants, catch the entertainment and get a real feel for the atmosphere on board. Above all, we think about who each ship will suit, whether you are planning a first cruise, a family holiday, an adults-only escape or something a little more special.
That kind of experience means we can give you honest, practical advice rather than a list of facilities. We can explain the differences between ships, cabin categories, dining packages and fare options, so you can choose with confidence.
Itineraries you won't find anywhere else
Holidays created by cruise experts
Paramount Cruises offers holidays from the world's leading cruise lines. Some of our most memorable itineraries, though, come from our own product team.
Our exclusive Paramount Packages combine hand-picked cruises with flights, hotels, transfers, rail journeys, tours and extended stays ashore. Everything comes together as one complete holiday, so you have more time to enjoy each destination and fewer arrangements to sort out yourself.
Think Alaska cruises paired with Rocky Mountaineer rail journeys, Grand Prix cruise holidays, Asian adventures and escorted journeys through America's Music Cities. These are experiences you are unlikely to find by booking a cruise on its own.
And because one team arranges the whole itinerary, you have a single point of contact for every part of your holiday.
Personal service from real people
A dedicated cruise specialist
When you call Paramount Cruises, you will speak to an experienced cruise specialist who takes the time to understand what matters to you.
They will get to know your plans, preferences and budget before suggesting ships, cruise lines and itineraries. They will also stay across your booking, so you never have to explain your holiday from scratch each time you get in touch.
Whether you need help choosing a cabin, making sense of a drinks package, arranging assistance or adding a hotel stay, there is always a knowledgeable team on hand.
Independent advice and more choice
As an independent cruise specialist, we work with ocean, river, expedition and specialist cruise lines alike. That means our recommendations come down to one thing: finding the cruise that suits you best.
Different cruise lines offer very different experiences. One might be ideal for families, another better suited to relaxed adults-only cruising, destination-led exploration or superb dining. Our job is to explain those differences clearly and help you make the right choice.
We can also compare fares, promotions and package options to find you genuine value, not simply the lowest headline price.
Support throughout your holiday
Our service carries on long after your booking is confirmed.
Before you travel, we can help with questions about documentation, check-in, luggage, dining, transfers and the rest of the practical detail. And if part of your itinerary changes or something unexpected crops up, you have a UK-based team that knows your booking and can talk you through what happens next.
From your first enquiry to the day you arrive home, we are here to make planning and enjoying your cruise as easy as it should be.
