About Us

Cruise & Maritime Voyages is Britain's leading independent cruise line and 2018 heralds our ninth year of operating no-fly cruises from a choice of 11 UK ports. We believe our smaller more intimate ships offer a leisurely and traditional home from home country house style of cruising with the emphasis very much on personal service and going that extra mile. That’s why over 40% of our passengers cruise with us again and again and why over 95% of our guests are satisfied and enjoy their cruising experience with CMV.

The CMV fleet is operated under charter by Cruise & Maritime Voyages who have a wealth of cruise industry expertise. Cruise & Maritime Voyages is part of the CMV Holdings London Travel & Leisure Group, with offices in Purfleet, Essex, UK, Adelaide, Australia and Ft Lauderdale, Florida, USA.
