Passengers will also participate in silver
anniversary celebrations onboard.
Those who book for the full 108 days will

classes, fitness programs, entertainment
events, social invitations, and mementos.
“For our 20th World Cruise, travellers can
expect an especially spectacular addition to
their personal bank of once-in-a-lifetime
memories, with popular cultural capitals and
off-the-beaten-path jewels that appeal to
both our loyal regulars and those new to us,”
says Crystal president Gregg Michel.
The itinerary, which starts on 15 Jan 2015, will
