YOUR PERSONAL SERVICE


cc954ffa1a15a5d1846f15c2b0076c26ccc9a664
The crew on SH Minerva are dedicated to giving you the best experience possible. Swan Hellenic is all about personal service and genuine hospitality, and you’ll find your time on board will reflect that. No task is too big or too small: need a double espresso to get you going in the morning? Noted. Prefer your bed made up a certain way? We'll look after it. Absorbed by the views or the conversation at dinner? We’ll take care of everything else. We’ve been in the business a long time and take pride in our caring, thoughtful approach.
