Ultra-luxury cruise line Regent Seven Seas Cruises is taking bookings for an exclusive Spotlight Voyage perfect for golf enthusiasts. Sailing summer 2025, this 14-night cruise around the British and Irish Isles on the Seven Seas Grandeur, will be hosted by Annika Sörenstam, the most celebrated female golfer of all time.

The Seven Seas Grandeur will sail roundtrip from Southampton, beginning June 23, 2025. The cruise will take in some of the most iconic golfing destinations across the British and Irish Isles, allowing guests to play on six prestigious courses, including historic hosts of past British Opens.
