Introducing the Panorama

A classic three-masted motor-sailer carrying just 49 guests, with a relaxed atmosphere and real seafaring character.

Comfort and Design on Board

All cabins are outside cabins with windows or portholes, en-suite bathrooms and individually controlled air conditioning.

A Storied History

Launched in 1993, rebuilt in 2001 and renovated in 2021, she has sailed everywhere from the Seychelles to Monte Carlo.

Voyages Through the Mediterranean

Her size opens up smaller ports and sheltered anchorages, ideal for unhurried itineraries beyond the classic highlights.

Good to know

Chartering Panorama: your questions

Straight answers to the questions we are asked most.

Still have a question?

Speak to our cruise team about your dates and group, or ask for a charter quote.

020 8324 3117 Get a quote

How many guests can Panorama take on a private charter?

Up to 49 guests in 24 cabins. Smaller groups are just as welcome: the charter price is for the whole yacht, so a larger group simply shares the cost between more people.

Where can we charter Panorama?

Panorama sails in the Greek islands, where she operates scheduled cruises for Variety Cruises. Private charters are usually arranged in the same waters. Tell us where you would like to go and we will check her schedule and suggest an itinerary.

What is included in the charter price?

The yacht with her full crew, your cabins and an itinerary planned around your group. Meals, drinks, excursions and port charges depend on the charter terms for your dates, and we send a clear breakdown with your quote. We can add flights, transfers and hotel nights too.

Can we plan our own itinerary?

Yes. Within the cruising area, the weather and the captain’s judgement, you decide where to go, how long to stay and where to stop for a swim. We help you plan the route before you travel.

Is Panorama suitable for celebrations and families?

Yes. Milestone birthdays, anniversaries, family reunions and company groups all work well, because the whole yacht is yours, from the wood-panelled lounges to the sun deck.

Can we book a single cabin instead of the whole yacht?

Yes. Panorama also sails scheduled small-ship cruises, sold by the cabin: Hidden Greece Island Hopping Cruise and Greek Islands & Turkey. See each cruise for dates and prices.

How far ahead should we book?

For peak summer dates, six to twelve months ahead is advisable. Outside peak season there is more flexibility, but earlier is always better for a whole-yacht charter.

“Suzie was excellent in helping me organise my cruise, lots of helpful tips and when I had some concerns, she was there with alternatives…”

Claire S, Manchester · Verified Feefo review

“Seafarer were excellent at all stages… When there were floods in Dubai leading to cancellation of flights Seafarer were able to re- book for the following week with no extra charges. I would not hesitate to book via Seafarer again.”
