The New Classic is Finally Here

Say hello to ease at sea and the first new British cruise line to be launched since 2010.

Our purpose is simple: we want to inspire each and every guest to experience authentic cruising effortlessly, and sustainably. We’re here to accompany the next era of travel by blending tradition and innovation for a truly timeless cruise holiday that still makes you feel right at home.

OUR SHIPS

Here they are, the Ambassador fleet. Our first lady of the sea: Ambience. Derived from the French word for ‘surrounding’, our ambition at Ambassador is to create the optimum atmosphere onboard; one that brings out the best in each of us. The perfect ambience. Ambition, aptly named to further emphasise our commitment to inspire and delight every guest to enjoy an authentic cruise experience effortlessly, and sustainably. And, introducing our newest lady to the fleet, Renaissance, your home from home during her inaugural Ambassador season. An intimate and comfortable ship, recently renovated in France, with a multi-lingual crew. Join one of our voyages and discover the elegance and charm of Renaissance.
