Transport to London from Dover is efficient with trains running regularly from Dover Priory station to London St Pancras International, with a journey time of around 1 hour and 30 minutes. You can walk from the station to the Cruise Terminals in about 25 minutes. This makes it convenient for cruise passengers to access the capital for day trips. Additionally, coach services connect Dover with various London locations, offering a budget-friendly option.

Each Seabourn ship offers a choice of dining venues to suit your mood of the moment. All dining venues are complimentary, and nearly all are open-seating, inviting you to dine where, when, and with whom you wish. Complimentary fine wines are poured with lunch and dinner, and there is never an extra charge for any dining choice. You can even enjoy a meal in your suite or on your veranda.
