TO VISIT 45 PORTS IN 26 COUNTRIES ON FIVE CONTINENTS
_____________________

Among Highlights, "Return to Africa," Exclusive Complimentary Events

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL.,
From Rio de Janeiro to Shanghai and Alexandria, the Seven Seas
Voyager's® 2007 111-night World Cruise will entice guests to
experience all of the romance and mystique of a global itinerary while
exploring 45 destinations in 26 countries on five continents in
six-star luxury. On the most extensive World Cruise ever offered by
Radisson Seven Seas®, the acclaimed 700-guest all-balcony suite vessel
will begin her exploration by steaming southeast from Ft. Lauderdale
for South America on January 9, 2007.
Luxury truly goes exploring with exotic ports of call, exclusive
complimentary events, fine dining, and added amenities that will
delight even the most seasoned traveler. On the World Cruise, the
cruise line will return to southern and eastern Africa for the first
time since 2003, calling at Walvis Bay, Cape Town, Richards Bay,
Maputo (Mozambique), Mombasa, Mahe (Seychelles), and Male (Maldives).
And, among the almost four-dozen destinations reached, three will be
maiden calls at Maputo (Mozambique), Maura (Brunei) and Colombo (Sri
Lanka).
"The 2007 itinerary is a result of feedback from our past guests who
are seeking a less traditional World Cruise, yet a unique blend of
wonderful destinations and cultures on five continents," said Mark
Conroy, president of Radisson Seven Seas Cruises. "Taking these
valued comments into consideration, we've ambitiously responded with
an exceptional, convenient roundtrip from Ft. Lauderdale voyage with a
return to Africa."
The sailing will also feature 14 overnights in popular ports, allowing
guests ample time to explore both the immediate cities plus the
interiors of the countries visited through optional multi-day overland
tours.
Suites for the 2007 World Cruise are first being offered to Radisson
Seven Seas' 2006 full World Cruise guests as well as other past long
cruise guests on a priority basis. Reservations for the full 2007
itinerary will open to the general public the week of October 24.
Individual segment sales will open in early December.
By the end of this 111-night adventure, guests will have seen and
explored ports of call in Antigua, Barbados, Brazil, St. Helena
(United Kingdom), Namibia, South Africa, Mozambique, Kenya,
Seychelles, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Brunei, Malaysia, Taiwan,
Japan, China, Vietnam, Thailand, India, Oman, Egypt, Greece, Italy,
Monaco, and Spain before returning to Ft. Lauderdale on April 30.
