Regent Seven Seas Cruises has revealed 56 new shore excursions and five new multi-day pre- and post-cruise land programs for the 2026 holiday season.

These experiences feature Christmas markets, seasonal cuisine and local traditions, immersing guests in destinations across Europe, the cruise line said in a press release.

They will be available on select cruises onboard the Seven Seas Navigator, Seven Seas Voyager and Seven Seas Prestige’s maiden voyage, which is set to depart from Barcelona on Dec. 13.

The five new pre- and post-cruise land programs will be available exclusively on the Seven Seas Navigator itineraries as part of the cruise line’s first full winter season in the Mediterranean.

“There really is no better way to celebrate the holiday season than with an ultra-luxury cruise with Regent,” said Wesley D’Silva, president of Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

“The passion and traditions of the Mediterranean are in full force during the Christmas season and these elevated tours have been designed to entice and excite discerning travelers ahead of the holiday season, allowing our guests to be completely immersed in the spirit.”
