Oceania to Launch Wellness Tours With Canyon Ranch

Oceania Cruises and Canyon Ranch are launching a new tour series, Wellness Tours Inspired by Canyon Ranch.

Building on Oceania’s existing partnership with the Canyon Ranch, which places the wellness brand’s Canyon Ranch SpaClub at Sea facilities onboard Oceania’s cruise ships, the new tour series will debut with Oceania Riviera’s and Oceania Marina’s April 9 and April 10, 2017, sailings. Tours will initially be offered in France, Spain, Italy, and Greece.

Billed as a “complete wellness getaway at sea,” guests on each tour will begin their day with healthy Canyon Ranch breakfast options in the Grand Dining Room, such as a three egg-white omelet with seasonal vegetables and cheese. Next comes a wellness tour in Taormina, Sicily, including a yoga class. Back on board, guests might round out the day with a treatment at the Canyon Ranch SpaClub, such as a soothing Canyon Stone Massage or a detoxifying Seaweed Leaf Wrap. Come dinnertime, guests can enjoy healthy Canyon Ranch selections in the Grand Dining Room, such as the steamed Maine lobster atop savory Castilla-La Mancha saffron rice followed by warm, fragrant chocolate cake.

With the debut of the new wellness tour series, Oceania Cruises is also offering Canyon Ranch wellness specials, pairing select Canyon Ranch SpaClub treatments with the new tours, offering guests savings. Reservations for Wellness Tours Inspired by Canyon Ranch will open on April 1, 2017.

Here are some of the highlights of the new wellness tours:
