Vantage Deluxe World Travel is giving travelers something to look forward to with the new 5-star Ocean Odyssey, a 162-guest small ship scheduled to launch in March 2022. Following the announcement of sister ship Ocean Explorer in 2020, the Ocean Odyssey marks a major milestone in Vantage's 36-year history by bringing travelers to all 7 continents, as well as destinations new to the company, including the Coral Triangle, Borneo, Komodo, northern Australia, and beyond. The leader in solo travel, the Ocean Odyssey is also proud to offer 15 solo-designated cabins — a cruise industry first.

"We couldn't be more excited to build on the success of the Ocean Explorer with the Ocean Odyssey," said Henry R. Lewis, Founder & Chairman. "Our travelers want an intimate, enriching experience where they can truly absorb history and culture with fewer guests and a better staff to guest ratio. The Ocean Odyssey will cater to those who appreciate relaxed refinement, unparalleled cultural enrichment, and unique adventures."

Ocean Odyssey: Small Ship Ocean Cruising at Its Finest

  • Staterooms & Suites: 17 staterooms and suites featuring private walk-out verandas. Guests who reserve suites also receive complimentary business class or premium economy upgrades, among other perks.
  • Worldwide Concierge service: All guests can utilize Vantage's Concierge service — both before and during the cruise — to customize their journey with reservations for private dining, spa treatments, private tours, and more.
  • Dining: Guests will savor gourmet international fare, with beer and wine included at dinner, and enjoy interactive opportunities to cook their own meal with hot rock cooking. Guests can also reserve a private dining room for special celebrations.
  • Curated cultural enrichment: Guests enjoy included shore explorations such as home-hosted meals and guided tours. Onboard, guests get to the heart of a destination's culture with a curated onboard enrichment program featuring performances and illuminating talks by expert Resident Lecturers.
  • Inland overnight excursions: On select itineraries, guests explore beyond the port on special inland overnight excursions in Luxor, Egypt, and Sri Lanka.
  • State-of-the-art technology & environment safe: The Ocean Odyssey will be Polar Code 6 compliant with the latest SOLAS requirements in expedition cruising; feature the latest satellite and navigation capabilities, including ULSTEIN X-BOW® technology; and sustainable features that reduce emissions and lower energy consumption.
