Seven Seas Explorer sustainability

Sustainability is a key component of Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ philosophy and is integrated into the company’s strategy through the Sail & Sustain programme. The programme focuses on protecting the planet, using resources responsibly and supporting the well-being of communities in the regions visited.

Sustainability can also be experienced on land: on the Eco-Connect Tours, guests gain fascinating insights into the local nature, environment and conservation projects in each destination. In this way, Regent combines responsible ship operations with sustainable experiences and a mindful approach to the regions visited.
