Swan Hellenic – www.swanhellenic.com - part of All Leisure Holidays, has almost 60 years of cruising experience and a dedicated team of long standing employees both aboard mv Minerva and ashore. In August 1954 Swan Hellenic operated their first cruise under the direction of Ken Swan; Swan’s carried 128 passengers by train to Venice, where they joined the ship and cruised between Venice, Piraeus and the Aegean islands. Four classical history experts travelled with the party and gave a programme of lectures – thus began the Swan Hellenic tradition of cultural cruising.
Most recently Swan Hellenic has completed a multi-million pound refurbishment of their cruise ship mv Minerva. The improvements mark the beginning of a long term investment to enhance the ship’s specification for the benefit of passengers for the years ahead. Mv Minervahas also recently been awarded a 4 star rating in the prestigious Berlitz Guide’s best-selling annual Complete Guide to Cruising.
Swan Hellenic’s sister travel brands include Voyages of Discovery, Hebridean Island Cruises, Discover Egypt, Travelsphere and Just You.
