ABERCROMBIE & Kent’s cruise business is
the company’s fastest growing segment,
according to its managing director, Sujata
Raman.
Speaking in the wake of Queen Mary 2’s visit
to Melbourne, where Abercrombie & Kent
looked after a number of sightseeing tours for
close to 500 of the vessel’s passengers, Raman
said that in order to appeal to the welltraveled
cruiser, and in light of the vast
increase in the number of visiting cruise ships
and the number of Australian ports hosting
them, the company is now “constantly
developing new and innovative product”.
“A&K has identified the desire for cruise
passengers to experience more than the city
their ship docks in,” a statement from the
company said.
“This has seen A&K moving away from the
traditional ‘panoramic’ tour to offer instead
regional visits and longer overland experiences
which deliver a deeper experience of
Australia,” the company added.
