Luxury travel, whether it be on a cruise ship or a tour, offers an enhanced level of services, such as first class food and culinary experiences. Since luxury cruise ships carry fewer passengers than mainline ships, this allows for a very high degree of personal service. Luxury tours also operate with smaller groups than traditional tours.
Luxury cruises and tours feature better, and in most cases outstanding, stateroom or lodging facilities. In the case of tours, luxury tour escorts are the best of the best. In today’s economy, you will find luxury cruises available at prices comparable to what you would pay for a mini-suite or suite on a mainline cruise ship.

What do you mean by “luxury is in the experience?”
