On October 9th, Swan Hellenic proudly joined the CruiseXplore Workshop in Dubai — a dynamic event that brought together the leading travel experts, cruise specialists, and key agents from across the UAE.
The atmosphere was buzzing with energy, curiosity, and genuine passion for travel. It was wonderful to see how the regional market continues to evolve, with travellers increasingly looking for experiences that go beyond leisure — experiences that enrich, transform, and connect them with the world’s most remote and extraordinary destinations.
During the workshop, we had the opportunity to present the Swan Hellenic story — a brand built on more than 70 years of pioneering exploration and cultural discovery. Our elegant boutique ships are designed for guests who wish to see what others don’t — travelling in style and comfort to the polar regions and beyond, guided by experts, scientists, and storytellers who bring every voyage to life.
From the icy wilderness of Antarctica to the rugged coastlines of the Arctic, from the fjords of Norway to the hidden ports of Africa and the Indian Ocean, each Swan Hellenic journey is a celebration of nature, knowledge, and human curiosity.
We were delighted by the strong interest and enthusiasm from our UAE travel partners, who share our commitment to crafting experiences that combine authenticity, luxury, and purpose. These partnerships are the foundation for bringing expedition cruising closer to the hearts of Middle Eastern travellers — a segment that continues to show growing appetite for meaningful exploration.
A heartfelt thank you to the CruiseXplore team for creating such a professional and inspiring platform, and to all the top UAE agents who took the time to meet, exchange ideas, and explore collaboration opportunities with us.
At Swan Hellenic, we remain dedicated to supporting our partners with comprehensive training, marketing resources, and unique travel content — ensuring that together, we continue to introduce more guests to the art of expedition cruising.
Here’s to new journeys, shared purpose, and unforgettable horizons ahead.
