Save up to £4,000 on Epicurean Expeditions with Atlas Ocean Voyages’ Adventure Beyond promotion

Atlas Ocean Voyages announces an impressive lineup of acclaimed chefs and culinary experts for its 2024 Epicurean Expeditions.

The luxury cruise line, which currently sails three expedition yachts presents immersive travel experiences, themed as Cultural, Polar, or Epicurean Expeditions.

The intimate size of World Traveller, World Navigator, and World Voyager offers guests the opportunity to fully indulge in the pleasures of small-ship cruising and the high level of attention to detail that affords.

Themed sailings – like the 2024 Epicurean Expeditions series – gather up to 200 like-minded explorers with experts in the culinary world, across a range of enthralling itineraries.

And this year, Atlas Ocean Voyages’ ‘Adventure Beyond’ promotion could put a tidy £4,000 back in your pocket to enjoy another time. With savings in mind, it’s well worth getting ahead of the game and making your booking this spring, ahead of fare increases in the summer.

Over the next year, foodies and wine afficionados have several dedicated voyages where you’ll be accompanied by true experts in the field. Here are our top picks.

New chefs join the 2024 programme
Let your taste buds go on a multi-layered holiday this spring, with Chef Marcello Zaccaria who has participated in various television cooking shows, including Master Chef and Top Chef. A member of the Italian Chef Federation, Chef Marcello will showcase his signature blend of Italian cuisine. His take on Italian cuisine is sure to enhance your 12-night Isles of the Mediterranean voyage expedition from Rome to Athens, departing on July 24 , 2024.

Also joining the Epicurean Expeditions programme for the first time this year is Julieta Davey, who is perhaps better known as Mamá Cacao, thanks to her passion for the most exquisite chocolate creations. Discover the roots of her cacao-fuelled adventures on four different voyages, including World Voyager’s 10-night expedition from London to Bilbao, departing on October 2, 2024.

Favourites return for another season of culinary perfection
Famous for his TV series and award-winning restaurants, Canadian master chef Massimo Capra will be sharing his spin on Italian cuisine onboard World Traveller this September. The eight-night voyage sails from Valletta, Malta, through the Strait of Messina finishing in Civitavecchia (for Rome). Excitingly, this expedition features two overnight stays for even more cultural and culinary immersion – in Positano and Capri.

If you’ve got a sweet tooth, World Traveller will be welcoming renowned pastry chef Anna Walamowska onboard for a week-long Spanish Treasures expedition, departing from Palma de Mallorca on September 23, 2024. Anna’s penchant for delicious and irresistible pastries and chocolates will certainly add a magic sparkle to this expedition, which also visits Ibiza, Alicante, Cartagena, Almeria, Tangier and Malaga.

And it’s not just foodies who are in for a treat this year. Wine buffs will want to book a stateroom onboard World Traveller this August for a standout nine-night expedition accompanied by Jon Schlegel, CEO of Attimo Winery. Throughout this roundtrip itinerary (which focuses primarily on Italy’s west coast), Jon will offer guests the opportunity to savour the finest vintages from his boutique Barolo vineyard in Piemonte.

How to benefit from the Adventure Beyond savings
Atlas Ocean Voyages’ Adventure Beyond savings can reduce the price of your luxury expedition by up to £4,000 per stateroom. This discount is applied per stateroom on select bookings right the way through to April 2025.

But it goes beyond the ticket price. Your Atlas Ocean Voyages expedition is all about fully immersing you in each destination, with your personal interests in mind. So complimentary cultural immersion opportunities on every voyage are a central component of the overall experience.

Over 60 expeditions are included in the promotion, and with prices set to increase at the beginning of July, now is the ideal time to explore your choices.
