“We like the small boat experience you receive with Variety Cruises. The atmosphere on board is always relaxed with a friendly crew. We have sailed with Variety three times now and have loved each trip. The food is good, the excursions are not overly priced, nor are the drinks on board.”

“We have just completed 7 nights in the Society Islands Tahiti (June 2023). We had a fantastic time . Staff, food and cabins were all better then expected. Comfortable beds, very tasty food and excellent excursions to some awesome snorkelling and cultural destinations . We three Australians loved the laid back, friendly vibe on the yacht! Staff were awesome from the Captain to the galley staff. Very professional but also genuinely friendly and caring. A special mention for Kostas cruise manager, Elliot excursion coordinator and Dataram and his lovely female offsider in the dining room … all demonstrated great skills in service and were always happy to listen and respond to specific needs/ requests to improve our experiences.”

“We had a lot of trouble with the booking as the dates were messed up due to time/day/ international date line. This resulted in confusion/stress and accommodation changes. Not sure if this was through variety cruises or insight travel or my cruise. Once we got on board the ship:Great staff, great service- we had the best time! Everything ran smoothly, great tours, top class service; cleanliness…and the food was amazing. Would highly recommend!”

“We cruised on board the Pan Orama II from Tahiti, around the Society Islands from June 2nd to 9th and would like to take this opportunity to pass on our thanks and appreciation to ALL of the crew and in particular to Sephora, who made it extra special by providing us with a wonderfully authentic Polynesian experience. We found Sephora to be extremely talented and knowledgeable, helpful and kind. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she was passionate about sharing her culture with us which was truly endearing. Thank you Sephora! And thank you to all of the crew for making this such a wonderful cruise that we will remember for many years to come! With our best wishes and kind regards to you all, Martin & Laura. 🙂”

“I had an amazing eleven days on the Panarama II cruising around the Society and Tuamotu Islands, French Polynesia. The Staff was great and the food delicious. There were several activities to do on the islands, or just relax on deck or explore on your own. I'm already thinking about my next cruise with Variety Cruises.”

“Not so happy! Had they not cancelled my cruise I would have been very happy. Six of us were cancelled without options 60 days from cruise date. Had to book on Norwegian to accommodate the dates we requested. No reason given for the cancellation. Very disappointed group, which I had recommended this cruise for. Not a very happy camper. No other offers extended from Variety.”
