Canyon Ranch has teamed with Regent Seven Seas Cruises to develop wellness tips culled from ports around the world to help travelers enhance their health while cruising.
New menus aboard Regent Seven Seas Cruises ships will reflect fresh, local and, wherever possible, sustainable ingredients, including Canyon Ranch Spa cuisine. The Canyon Ranch menu selections focus on healthy carb-rich vegetables, fruits, and moderate portions of whole grains, using fats that are beneficial to health – such as extra virgin olive oil, with a minimum of salt and no artificial sweeteners. Selections include steamed Shanghai dumplings, Latin spice crusted Alaskan halibut fillet and buttermilk panna cotta delight.
Voyages featuring these menu changes include Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ seven-night Venetian Dreams voyage from Athens to Venice (departing July 20) and 14-night Timeless Mediterranean from Athens to Istanbul (departing Oct. 6). More than 20 complimentary shore excursions are available on each voyage, and guests have the opportunity keep fit on a two mile walk through the ancient sites of Priene, Miletus and Didyma in Turkey, or go kayaking and swimming along the Dalmatian Coast.
In Northern Europe, guests are offered the 10-night Highlands & the Emerald Isle voyage, roundtrip from London (departing Sept. 6) and seven-night Scandinavian Sojourn from Stockholm to Copenhagen (Aug. 8).
Voyages that include India, such as the 17-night Arabian Adventures voyage from Luxor (Safaga), Egypt to Mumbai (formerly Bombay) departing Nov. 14, feature regions including Petra in Jordan; Muscat and Salalah in Oman; and Doha, Qatar.
The cruise line offers daily fitness and wellness classes – from indoor cycling to yoga or Pilates – which draw a number of first-timers along with seasoned practitioners.
