The Royal Horticultural Society

Swan Hellenic is pleased to be a partner of the UK's leading gardening charity, the Royal Horticultural Society. We offer unique, cultural travel experiences aboard our floating country house hotel, Minerva, blending worldclass sites with smaller, off the beaten track destinations including exotic gardens and places of natural beauty around the world.

A programme of Guest Speaker talks uncovers the deeper history and culture of the destinations visited on an inclusive programme of tailor-made shore excursions. In the evening, open seating dining allows you to dine at leisure and savour memories of your time ashore in the company of friends or Guest Speakers.

With all gratuities on board and ashore also included in your fare, a Swan Hellenic cruise represents exceptional value for money.

As part of our partnership with the RHS we are offering one year's complimentary membership or a renewal for existing members on all bookings made on the following partnership cruises.  Details will be available on board Minerva.
