The team at Sovereign have been travelling with Crystal Cruises around the globe for over the last 20 years. Sovereign‘s Managing Director, Stefan Shillito, is a huge fan of Crystal and has travelled with them on many occasions. Stefan is the best to sum up why Sovereign is very proud to represent Crystal Cruises, “Whilst at Sovereign we are very privileged to sell the very best of the best travel experiences around the globe, for us Crystal Cruises stands out. This is because we have always admired Crystal’s unique approach to product development. They are not a brand that has expanded quickly, which can sometimes lead to a dip in service standards. Rather, Crystal has taken the time to diligently review every aspect of the experience that they provide to the luxury traveller. They have then done their very best to enhance and refine every aspect of the Crystal experience to the highest grade possible. Therefore, Crystal has so many devoted regular travellers and why it is so popular with the Sovereign clientele".
Crystal Cruises view of The Sovereign Cruise Club team “Our relationship with Stefan and The Sovereign Cruise Club team is longstanding, and built on mutual respect, understanding and ultimately our love of luxury cruise. The team at Sovereign are fantastic at what they do - they take the time to understand your needs and match you with the right luxury cruise - whether that‘s on a small boutique yacht; an epic expedition to your once in a lifetime destination; or a discovery of Europe’s waterways on a river cruise. They also have first-hand experience of the ships they sell which is priceless when it comes to making sure your cruise is perfect. Huge thanks to Stefan and the team at Sovereign for their support of Crystal throughout the years - it's always a genuine pleasure to work with you all.”
