Crystal will expand its acclaimed Crystal Visions Enrichment Program to Crystal Yacht Cruises, with three of its most popular guest speakers set to give riveting and interactive presentations to Crystal Esprit’s guests. When Crystal Esprit sails through Greece, Cyprus, Israel, Jordan, Qatar, Oman and the UAE this November and December, she will be joined by leading experts on the distinct global affairs of the regions and the world at large. Sailing aboard Crystal Esprit’s 6 November Athens-Limassol voyage (visiting the Greek Isles and Cyprus) and the November 13 Limassol-Aqaba voyage (visiting Cyprus, Israel and Jordan) are:

• Stephen Cole – A renowned international speaker and broadcast journalist, who shares his perspective from his time with the BBC and CNN International.
• Jean-Pierre Isbouts – A humanities scholar, best-selling author for National Geographic books and award-winning filmmaker, who shares his stories and observations gleaned from decades of study.

Joining the yacht’s 23 December round-trip Dubai sailing (calling in Oman, Qatar, UAE and offering a double overnight in Dubai) is:

• U.S. Marine Corps General (Ret.) Anthony Zinni – A decorated military veteran celebrated as a fascinating and dynamic speaker, who will share his colorful history and world experiences.

“An important component of travel is understanding the world we explore, and Crystal has long been a leader in providing enlightening onboard experiences with esteemed leaders in various fields that mirror the enriching experiences ashore in each destination,” says Crystal CEO and President, Edie Rodriguez. “Presentations from guest experts always draw in our audience of savvy, inquisitive travellers. The intimate setting aboard Crystal Esprit will only enhance the interactive and conversational atmosphere for a truly informative opportunity.” The three guest speakers to kick off the enrichment programming on Crystal Esprit will be familiar to Crystal guests who have sailed on the company’s award-winning ocean ships, Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity, as they’ve all been featured as part of the Crystal Visions Enrichment program many times, due to the high level of interest from travellers. Crystal Yacht Cruises fares for the seven-, 10-, and 11-day sailings (chronologically) begin at $4270, $5950 and $11,130, respectively if booked by 31 August.
