Condé Nast Traveller reveals its cruise 2023 ‘Hot List’

Go back to the e-newsletter

Condé Nast Traveller has named its ‘Hot List’ of the cruise world for 2023, a selection of what the publisher calls “a curated collection of the world’s best new cruises”. The list names nine ships, almost all of which have only been launched, or rebranded under new ownership, in the past 12-18 months. The stable includes vessels in the river, ocean, expedition and yachting markets. One of the elite crowd was fully renovated in 2022 and made the cut. Only ultra-luxury cruise line Silversea had more than one ship on the list.
