b. While traveling with A&K Travel Group subsidiary companies:

A&K Travel Group processes Guest Personal Data when you interact with us offline to provide you with the A&K Travel Group service. Additionally, when you use electronic or RFID technologies, or use on-premise digital services, we may collect browsing information including but not limited to, search history, server logs, application logs, browsing data, first-party cookies, third-party cookies, pixel tags and clear gifs. In addition, we may process this data in combination with other data that we collect and/or create as necessary in connection with certain legitimate business interests in (i) verifying your identity for authentication and security purposes; and (ii) to prevent fraud.


We may operate CCTV or security cameras on properties operated or owned by A&K Travel Group. In connection with these systems, we may collect and/or create Guest Personal Data as necessary in connection with certain legitimate business interests, such as (i) ensuring the safety and security of guests and employees; (ii) recording and investigating health and safety incidents; (iii) keeping track of guests and employees for safety and commercial purposes; and (iv) creating aggregate data.

In order to understand our guests’ preferences, and better recommend bespoke products and services we may create a “Guest Profile” by linking together and analysing Guest Personal Data collected in the following circumstances: (i) when you purchase our products and services; (ii) when you travel with companies owned or operated by A&K Travel Group; (iii) when you use our digital services; (iv) through cookies and other tracking technologies on A&K Travel Group websites; (v) when you contact us or submit information to us; and (vi) through feedback and surveys.


During our interactions we may collect special categories of personal data about you as detailed below. This may be because you provide us with the information or because it is associated with a group you travel with (please see example below). It may also be because we need to know certain personal data about you, such as health information, so that we can provide you with the best possible service and advise you whether a trip is suitable for you. For example:

If we receive a group booking from a specific religious association, we will indirectly collect details of religious beliefs of the individuals within the group booking. The same can be said for groups from political associations and trade union associations.

If a guest asks whether certain medication is allowed to be taken into certain jurisdictions, that inquiry could disclose certain medical conditions.

Other special category of personal data that we may end up receiving from you include details about your:

dietary requirements (which may disclose your health information or religious or philosophical beliefs);

You are not under any obligation to consent to us processing or disclosing your sensitive information in the manner described above and in our Notice. However, if you don’t agree then we won’t be able to process your data or transfer your data to our suppliers. As you will appreciate, it would then be difficult to actually provide your holiday because making your holiday arrangements involves processing your data and transferring your data to our suppliers in order that they can provide the services.

If you have concerns with us processing or transferring your data then please discuss that with us at your earliest convenience in order that we can book your holiday and provide you with the necessary services.

If you are happy to consent to our use of your sensitive information, you will also be able to withdraw your consent at any time. However, if this operates to prevent us from providing your holiday, we will be required to treat the withdrawal of consent as a cancellation of your booking and the cancellation charges in the Booking Terms and Conditions for your booking will become payable, as applicable.


IV. THE LEGAL GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING GUEST PERSONAL DATA

In most instances, we process Guest Personal Data under the legitimate interests of providing you products and services, as well as running our business (for example, we record inbound and outbound calls to fulfill our legitimate interests of ensuring our customer support team is trained appropriately and to address any concerns you might raise).

Guests will receive ten percent (10%) off the cruise-only fare. Full payment of the reduced fare will be due at time of booking. Crystal’s standard cancellation terms apply.

Crystal Cruises

Exclusive Offers

Lisbon to Southampton

We leave behind the pastries and panoramas of Lisbon for Leixões, where you must try a drop of the local speciality, port wine – best enjoyed at a sunny beachfront cafe. A day at sea brings us into Spain and to the elegant city of Santander, framed by mountains and beaches, with plenty of delicious seafood to feast upon. Then we cross into French waters, calling at St Jean de Luz where you can visit the church where Louis XIV married the Infanta Maria Theresa of Spain in 1660. We then arrive in Bordeaux, where we spend three days so you can enjoy all that this region has to offer, from its picturesque riverside to the nearby beaches, its culture, food, and architecture – not to mention, of course, its legendary wines. A final sea day takes us to English shores, stopping at the island of Portland before disembarking in Southampton.

Lisbon to Barcelona

Tour the Iberian Peninsula on a voyage around the coasts of Portugal and Spain. Our cruise begins in Lisbon, the dynamic Portuguese capital, which is capturing hearts with its exquisite architecture, great nightlife – and those delicious custard tarts, pastel de nata. We relax into life at sea for a day as we cross the Spanish border to Cádiz. This beach city is a baroque beauty, where you can dine on some of the best seafood in Andalucia. Málaga comes next, another city graced with sandy shores. Find out about its famous son at the Picasso Museum. In Cartegena uncover the layers of civilization that stretch back here to 220BCE, including a Roman amphitheater. In Alicante, tuck into a paella – this is its birthplace – and go in search of a pirate’s lair at Tabarca. Castellon It’s our last stop before we reach Barcelona, the invigorating capital of Catalonia, our final destination.

Barcelona to Civitavecchia

We’ll glide across the sparkling blue waters of the Mediterranean on this cruise, picking out some of the region’s jewels as we go. Our quest starts in the lively city of Barcelona, from where we cross the French border to call at Toulon for fine sands and fine art. Glamorous Monte Carlo follows – can you resist a throw of the dice in the famous casino? Then, it's onwards to Italy and Livorno in Tuscany, gateway to Florence’s cultural riches and the vineyards of Chianti. Porto Santo Stefano offers a wilder view of Tuscany, then we cross to the palm-fringed waterfront of Olbia on the enigmatic island of Sardinia. To Sicily now and Trapani, a city so close to Africa, that continent’s influence is reflected in the tempting dishes served in its restaurants. Then it’s back to the Italian mainland and Salerno for the Amalfi coast, with its heart-melting landscape of colorful villages clinging to the cliffs, before we arrive at Civitavecchia, within touching distance of Rome.

Fusina (Venice) to Piraeus

The treasures of the coasts of Italy, Croatia and Greece provide a compelling route south, followed by this cruise. Make the most of your time in hopelessly romantic Venice before boarding Crystal Serenity and setting sail for Trieste, a bordertown claimed by so many down the years that it has a distinctly independent air. We head to Dubrovnik now, on Croatia’s Dalmatian coast, the old walled city that’s gained new fans from starring as a location in Game of Thrones. The lush green island of Corfu offers a pine-scented introduction to Greece, and we encounter a second beautiful drop in the Ionian Sea at mountainous Cephalonia. Now to the mainland and the cliff-hugging medieval town of Monemvasia, before we reach our final destination, Piraeus, gateway to Athens.

Civitavecchia (Rome) to Barcelona

Sail from Rome to Barcelona along the Italian and French Rivieras on this cruise with a touch of added glamor. Departing Civitavecchia, we head for Livorno, gateway to Tuscany, where some of the finest wines are produced in the vineyards of Chianti. Lovely Portofino comes next, once a humble fishing village, now a chic destination favored by the jet-set. We make a quick hop to Ile Rousse, Corsica’s own Riviera-style seaside resort, before finding the glitz and glamour in Monte Carlo so irresistible we plan to stay overnight. Onwards across the French border to pretty Sète to stroll the banks of its canals before we sample island life Spanish style in Mahón on Menorca. Our final stop is Barcelona, where there's fun in store for those who fancy staying around for a while longer.

Seward, Alaska to Vancouver

The sleepy town of Seward is the launchpad for this voyage, which travels southwards down the dramatic west coast of Alaska and Canada. Start with a bang at the awe-inspiring Hubbard Glacier, where colossal ice chunks calve into the sea, as we sail to historic Sitka, Alaska’s original capital. Next, we set a course for Icy Strait Point, a jump-off for some of the most exhilarating outdoor adventures in North America. Then it’s on to the historic town of Ketchikan before we enter Canadian waters, passing the pine-fringed islets of British Columbia and following the breathtaking Seymour Narrows down to Vancouver.

Vancouver to Seward, Alaska

We hug the Pacific Coast of North America as we sail from Vancouver to Seward via Ketchikan. Travel up the Seymour Narrows on a course between mainland Canada and the Haida Gwaii archipelago, up to Alaska through landscapes of forested islands, great glaciers and dramatic fjords. See the totem poles of Klawock, get adventurous in Icy Strait Point and cruise past the epic Hubbard Glacier before docking in Seward, where icefields, mountains and incredible wildlife await.

New York to Montreal

There’s a distinctly nautical theme to this voyage up the eastern coast, as we leave the razzle and dazzle of New York behind for the more laidback pace of life lived by the rhythm of the tides. A sea day takes us to Nova Scotia, where we visit the capital, Halifax, and Sydney on Cape Breton. Both offer a fascinating look at maritime heritage, plus a chance to enjoy the wonderful seafood of the region. Then we come to Charlottetown, the lively capital of Prince Edward Island of Anne of Green Gablesfame, with its historic Victorian houses, craft beer taprooms and thriving arts scene. Next is Quebec and Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine – admire the rugged coastline and vast expanse of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence from atop the red sandstone cliffs. Another sea day allows for more time to enjoy the sumptuous features of the ship before we arrive, refreshed and reinvigorated, in Montreal, just in time to see the fall colors.

San Juan to Fort Lauderdale

Put down that rum punch, it’s time to quit people-watching in the bars of Puerto Rico’s lively capital, San Juan, and go island hopping around the Caribbean. First up, Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands, where you can rub shoulders with yachties and take a dip in Bubbly Pool, Mother Nature’s Jacuzzi. Then we cross to St John’s in Antigua, to hit the beach – they say there's one for every day of the year here – or zipline through the rainforest. Glamorous St Barts is our next port of call, the little Caribbean island where you can shop like you’re on Fifth Avenue, quickly followed by St Thomas in the US Virgin Islands – take the cable car into the hills for a grand overview. Relax now as we cross turquoise waters to our final stop, lively Fort Lauderdale.

Roundtrip Fort Lauderdale

Enjoy some pre-cruise shopping in the boutiques of Fort Lauderdale before boarding the ship and setting sail for the Gulf of Mexico. Get into the relaxing pace of life onboard as we spend a day at sea, crossing to New Orleans, a city that knows how to party even outside of Mardi Gras. Another day at sea brings us to the powder sands of Cozumel, Mexico, then it’s on to Santo Tomas, and Roatán to snorkel around the second-biggest coral reef in the world. Our voyage continues to Montego Bay in Jamaica, where rum punch on the beach is a must, and Grand Cayman, for encounters with stingrays and blue iguanas. A day at sea completes the loop as we return to Fort Lauderdale.

Sail across turquoise seas on this round-trip from the Florida coast, a seductive mix of time spent on tropical islands and in the sumptuous surroundings of our beautiful ship. Get in the mood for the easy life in the holiday playground of Fort Lauderdale, where you’ll board Crystal Symphony bound for the Caribbean. Along the way, we'll call by islands such as St Thomas, where you can discover tales of pirates, go barefoot on one of the world’s best beaches at Magens Bay, and ride the cable car into the hills for a grand panoramic view. Then go below the waves in Tortola, to swim in warm, clear waters with sea turtles and the rainbow of fish that dart about the coral at Brewer’s Bay. Pretty San Juan, Puerto Rico’s pastel-colored capital is our final port of call before returning to Fort Lauderdale.

Fort Laudedale to San Juan

Small yet perfectly formed islands are our destinations on this hop around the Caribbean. Departing buzzy Fort Lauderdale, we slip into the laid-back vibe with a couple of days at sea before Tortola in the British Virgin Islands appears on the horizon. White sands melt into blue seas here, a place beloved by snorkelers and divers for its dazzling reef life. Francophone St Barts is our next stop, to see and be seen in the glamorous boutiques of Gustavia. We continue the French theme at Pointe-à-Pitre in Guadeloupe, learning about Creole life at the town’s museum. One of the oldest botanical gardens in the western hemisphere commands our attention in Kingstown, St Vincent, while in Castries, St Lucia, the modern cathedral with its colorful murals of black saints is a must-see. Fort-de-France in Martinique comes next, where there are markets to browse and sights including a statue of Napoleon’s Josephine. Basseterre in St Kitts is the gateway to Brimstone Fort National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and our penultimate stop before we arrive in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Admire some of the jewels of the Caribbean on this voyage from Puerto Rico to Florida. Wave goodbye to the pretty pastel-colored streets of San Juan as we set sail for Jost Van Dyke on the British Virgin Islands. Divers of all abilities will love exploring the coral reef, where eagle rays and tarpon among the fish to see, and don’t miss Bubbly Pool, a natural hot tub created by the sea on the east coast. St John’s, Antigua, is next on our list, gateway to Nelson’s Dockyard. This extraordinary complex of buildings dates from the Georgian era and is where the English admiral sheltered his fleet. Today, it’s where yachties congregate as they pass through. The lively holiday playground of St Thomas is also on our radar as we make our way finally to Fort Lauderdale where our voyage ends.

After departing Fort Lauderdale, two days at sea allow you to make the most of all that’s onboard, from golf and pickleball to the sumptuous spa. Our first port of call is Gustavia in glamorous St Barts, followed by pretty Fort-de-France in Martinique, where Napoleon’s wife, Josephine, was born. Shop for spices in the markets of St George’s, the capital of Grenada, and visit the 18th-century fort in Scarborough, Trinidad and Tobago, before another two relaxing sea days. Our arrival in Santarém, where the waters of the Tapajós River meet the Amazon, marks the start of the Brazilian leg of our voyage. The tiny Indian village of Boca de Valeria offers an insight into a traditional way of life; lively Manaus, where we have two days, is the gateway to adventures in the Amazon rainforest; and Parintins hosts the second-largest festival in Brazil after the Rio Carnival. Then it’s time to relax on the lovely beaches of Alter do Chão before we bid a fond farewell to Brazil and wend our way back to the Caribbean. We call at Devil’s Island, a fascinating former penal colony in French Guiana, and then hop between a sunny trio of enchanting islands: Barbados, Antigua, and Jost Van Dyke.
