Each Star Clippers ship offers a traditional and elegant way to see the world. Feel the wind fill the sails and gently carry you from one gorgeous destination to the next. During your time on board, you can choose to relax on a sun lounger or cool off in one of the pools on the top deck, while more adventurous passengers may enjoy the opportunity to climb the rigging or even have a go at steering the ship. Alternatively, you can wander the interior areas of the ship and discover relaxing lounges, a revitalising spa (Royal Clipper only) and a peaceful library.
Going through the Suez Canal is an incredible journey that connects the Mediterranean Sea with the Red Sea, creating a direct route between Europe and Asia. The canal is one of the world’s most significant and busiest maritime passages, cutting down travel time by avoiding the lengthy trip around Africa’s Cape of Good Hope. As ships move through the canal, they pass between vast stretches of desert, flanked by sandy banks and occasional palm trees, with a unique, almost surreal landscape. For many mariners, it's both a breathtaking experience and a reminder of how this engineering marvel transformed global trade.
