Call 020 3499 5846 for more information about these cabins.

Ambassador Cruise Line warmly welcomes guests with disabilities, including those with mobility restrictions as well as restricted sight and hearing. However, with the very different nature of a cruising holiday when compared to one on land, and purely for safety reasons, such guests should be accompanied by an able-bodied, or a fully sighted/hearing companion (as appropriate), who will be responsible for providing any assistance that you may require both onboard and ashore. In addition to this, Ambasador Cruise Line welcomes guests who wish to bring a lightweight wheelchair/scooter with them for shore use only however, these must be stored in your cabin at all times and cannot be used on board the vessel in any circumstance.

Travel requirements

All COVID-19 vaccination and testing requirements have now been lifted. Although many of the COVID-19 restrictions have now been lifted, we are very conscious that the virus still affects many people. Whilst we still recommend that guests have two doses of a UK Government approved vaccination, this is no longer mandatory for many of our sailings. COVID-19 requirements will differ for some itineraries due to entry requirements from host countries, such as Ambience’s 2024 Grand Round the Word Cruise and Ambition’s 2024 Highlights of Brazil and West Indies Adventure. Accordingly, we will communicate any restrictions to those booked on these sailings in due course. This change in policy will supersede any information that guests have previously received.

Documents and Visas

Visa, testing and entry requirements can change at any time, and it is your own responsibility to ensure that you check with a professionally qualified source and comply with such requirements. Around 14 days prior to sailing, you will receive an email confirming specific information relating to your chosen itinerary. This will confirm any important, destination specific requirements. The Travel Visa Company is Ambassador Cruise Line’s preferred visa, testing and entry provider. They can offer help and advice on specific requirements for Ambassador Cruise Line’s cruising itineraries as well as independent travel. For your convenience, The Travel Visa company’s online portal provides detailed visa, testing and entry information for Ambassador’s cruises, as well as online and downloadable applications.
