Vegan Travel has offered vegan river cruises for some time, but never before has the travel company brought vegans (and travelers interested in veganism) on a cruise on the open ocean. Nor, has any other travel company. This year, however, Vegan Travel becomes the first cruise provider to host an all-vegan ocean cruise. The one-of-a-kind cruise will bring passengers through the Norwegian Fjords on a splendid journey that takes place from September 25 to October 2, 2017.
What’s the All-Vegan Ocean Cruise About?
Vegan cruising is popular with vegan travel aficionados because the adventures let vegans have an amazing time on a ship that offers nothing but vegan food. We’ve likely all heard about the outstanding culinary spreads offered on cruise ships (or experienced them firsthand), but for vegans there’s not much to get excited about when looking at buffets and plates filled with animal-based foods. Typically, vegans who cruise don’t each much besides fruit, vegetables, some breads, and loads of pasta. We don’t think this is the best way to enjoy a cruise to the fullest, and neither do many others.
Once in a while on a cruise, you’ll a chef or kitchen staff that offers to make a vegan entrée, but more often than not is a simple salad, bowl of steamed vegetables, or basic noodle dish. On an all-vegan cruise, vegan travelers can indulge in everything and anything. They can devour entrees, main dishes, snacks, deserts, cocktails, and even specialty coffees – just like they wish they could on any cruise. On an all-vegan cruise, travelers have their pick of goodies and savory items to nibble on or to fill their belly with, and there’s no need to ask about ingredients or pass up tempting items.
Vegan Travel’s all-vegan ocean cruise will be an absolute delight for cruisers who want to explore the vast and beautiful ocean, and who desire to eat like they would at home – and even better!
The Itinerary
The unprecedented Vegan Travel ocean cruise to the Norwegian Fjords takes passengers on an adventure aboard the MS Columbus, a ship that’s part of the Hapag-Lloyd Cruises fleet. MS Columbus departs from the London Cruise Terminal, and then it escorts travelers on a spellbinding 8-day and 7-night vegan voyage to destinations along the Norwegian coastline. The vegan cruise aboard MS Columbus lets passengers visit historic fjord towns, natural wonders, and vibrant streets in beautiful Bergen.
The Food
On Vegan Travel’s ocean cruise, there will be culinary offerings to tempt and tantalize any taste bud. Talented vegan chefs are prepared to create astounding dishes that will surely please vegans’ palates and likely convert a few non-vegans to a compassionate way of eating. Every morsel of food onboard this vegan ocean cruise will be, of course, vegan and much of it will be some of the healthiest gourmet food ever made. There will, as we would hope there would be, lots of sweat treats that might not be as nutrient-packed as a Buddha bowl, but they will surely be tasty and much better for you than non-vegan desserts on other cruises.
There’s plenty of time left to learn about the thrills and offerings that await on the historic all-vegan ocean cruise to the Norwegian Fjords, but there may not be many spaces left. As of this posting, bookings are still being taken, but we can’t guarantee that staterooms won’t sell out fast.
