Connoisseur Series Trips Offer:

• Paced just right. We design and pace all our itineraries with the knowledge we've gleaned over 49 years. We avoid early starts and long days. We move at a relaxed pace and settle in to explore for two or three nights at each stop rather than changing hotels every night.
• Best-in-class Canadian escorts. We rigorously evaluate all Horizon guides for their experience, training and knowledge, only choosing the ones we'd personally want as travelling companions. All of our guides are seasoned professionals and many are cherished friends of our repeat travellers. Horizon guides depart from and return to Canada.
• All-inclusive value. We include all meals so that you don't have to worry about finding restaurants, we include all transfers so that you never have to navigate the streets by yourself, and we include all tips (including your guide's) so that you never have to decide when and how much to give. For added pampering, we also include all baggage handling.
• Private Excursions We skip the line-ups and contrived tourist experiences to get privileged access behind the scenes. Private excursions (especially on cruises) also means that we move at our own pace and with people we already know.
• First-class cruising. Our Connoisseur cruises all feature Crystal ships. With impeccable service, award-winning cuisine and an abundance of space, there is no doubt that these ships are among the most luxurious to sail the seas. Each of our escorted cruises is carefully wrapped with our pre-trip extensions and our private, specially-tailored land excursions that allow us to move at our own pace and with people we already know.
• Premium hotels. Our hotels are hand-picked, upscale properties that combine local charm, modern amenities and convenience. We choose properties that are centrally located and close to top sites for easy access.
• Like-minded travellers. Whatever your personal travel goals, we believe that the most enduring pleasure comes from building a lifetime of camaraderie with friends, new and old. Our travellers consistently tell us that the most compelling reason for coming back again and again to travel with Horizon is the quality and companionship of their fellow travellers.
