The Difference is Crystal Clear Imagine a world class resort, with the choice of a thousand things to do. Imagine fine dining in a choice of different venues. Imagine outstanding service from people who take genuine pleasure in seeing you smile. Then imagine that this magical place is to be found all over the world, carrying you to see beautiful, exotic and intriguing new places – and you have imagined the Crystal Cruises ships – Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity. On board a Crystal Cruises resort at sea, the emphasis is on choice. At sea, you can do all those things you never have time to do on land: Visit the spa which follows the principles of feng shui, and enjoy one of the range of treatments including aromatherapy, aqua-meditation and reflexology; improve your golf or tennis, or walk a mile on the broad teak promenade deck; work out daily, and have a fitness instructor help you with a new regime. Enjoy pilates or yoga, or learn to dance. Learn to speak a language, play the piano, or design your own website; attend a stimulating series of lectures – the Creative Learning Institute programme is created around the key pillars of Arts and Entertainment, Business and Technology, Lifestyle, Wellness and Wine & Food. Amazingly, all these opportunities are available free of charge, alongside the lavish entertainment programme each evening featuring Broadway style shows, newly released films in the cinema, classical music, reviews, a flutter in the casino and so much more. For many, the highlight of their Crystal Cruise is the food – and the unhurried and unregimented style in which it is offered. You have so many options for breakfast, lunch and dinner, each offering a different mood. For dinner, the Crystal Dining Room serves classic European cuisine, with regional specialities inspired by the ports on your itinerary. Prego features Northern Italian dishes and an original menu created by the Best Young Chefs of Italy. Additionally on the Crystal Symphony, Jade Garden brings the best of new Asian dishes together with the traditional favourites.
