Luxury River, Coastal & Ocean Cruise Operator

At Orbital Travel we've been specialising in river, coastal and ocean cruises for over 18 years. We understand that just like you, every one of our customers has different wants and needs from their holiday cruise, and have built a reputation for delivering on their every wish and desire.

Our travel specialists have first-hand knowledge of the cruises we offer and the destinations we visit, and will help you to create the cruise and itinerary that ticks all of your boxes. We never sell what we haven't seen and if it isn't right for you, we won't recommend it.

And whether the planning of your holiday cruise and itinerary takes one phone call or several calls over many weeks, there is no additional costs to you for our travel specialist's help and advice. We'll listen, ask questions and make suggestions and then create precisely the kind of holiday you are looking for.

Book with Confidence

ATOL Financial Protection.

All of the flights and flight-inclusive holiday cruises we offer are protected by the Air Travel Organiser's Licence (ATOL) scheme, which is
operated by the Civil Aviation Authority. ATOL protection means that when you book a holiday with Orbital Travel, your money
 is completely safe, and you won’t be left stranded if things go wrong. In the unlikely event that we cease trading, ATOL protection
 will refund all of your money if you’re still in the UK, or enable you to finish your holiday and return home if you’ve already departed.
You’re also entitled to practical assistance if issues arise while you’re on holiday, and the claims process is simple and straightforward.

There is also a Government-backed fund called the Air Travel Trust that steps in if any ATOL bond is not enough to look after everyone.
See our booking conditions for more details, and for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate click here.

Travel Aware.

Orbital Travel also supports the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) Travel Aware campaign, which will provide you with essential
details on vaccinations and visas, safety and security, as well as general information on your destination before you travel. We recommend
that you sign-up to receive regular Travel Aware updates, so that you are aware of any changes to the advice issued. To find out more
