Yachting not cruising

Yesterday we invited guests to our Stavanger office to present small ship cruising with SeaDream. This is yachting not cruising as SeaDream would say.

Our office in wet and windy Stavanger -
a perfect place for warmer sea dreams

SeaDream is a Norwegian company with two mega yachts, SeaDream I and SeaDream II. They take no more than 112 guests, sail to places larger ships can't go, and are the only cruise line to have a watersports marina with jet skis and other fun activities.

Gourmet meals, wine and Champagne are all included in the rate. A cruise with SeaDream starts from approximately 22 000 NOK per person for 7 nights and will vary with season, destination and chosen accommodation.

Stavanger opening party

We had a party to remember, to celebrate the opening of the new Select Collection travel boutique in Stavanger, Norway. With a warm and homely interior it just invites people to step in from the street, where it is nestled among designer shops.

Amidst this warmth and beauty, 50 guests got a chance on Wednesday evening to meet our Stavanger office manager Petra Humppila Nordbo and her sales consultant Laila Ånestad,  along with other Select staff.  

Here together with Petra
 
And here guests are listening:

...to a great speech by Petra





And here - just happy...

 




 

 

 
Invited to this memorable  occasion were local clients who have been booking their holidays through our Oslo office, along with other local dignitaries and airline representatives. No shortage of flights from oil city Stavanger – with its North Sea weather and well-heeled inhabitants.
