Benefit #1 – Cruise Discounts and Promotions

It’s pretty simple…buying in bulk gets you discounts.  We have teamed up with the Cruise Planners organization which is one of the largest travel agency networks in North America.  With Cruise Planners we book group cruise space far in advance, and the cruise lines give us onboard credits and other amenities…which we pass onto you!  You can not get these benefits by booking directly with the cruise line!  

 

Benefit #2 – Emergency Support for Accessibility Challenges

We love getting people out a jam….and we’re extraordinarily good at it!   When you book your cruise with us, you get VIP access to our problem solving specialists.  With an extensive network of local accessibility experts including tour guides, wheelchair repair companies, accessible van companies, and translators, we are ready to solve any problems that might arise during your trip.  We have solved countless problems for clients in the past, and we’re ready to do the same for you!

If you plan the trip yourself, you will have to stop whatever you’re doing on your trip to try to fix things. If an accessible travel specialist plans your trip, you’ve got a personal problem-solver in your back pocket!

 

Benefit #3 – Pre-trip Consultation about Destination Accessibility

Accessibility at European cruise ports varies greatly, and our local accessibility knowledge will help you make all the right decisions. We have inspected accessibility at cruise ports throughout Europe including Amsterdam, Athens, Barcelona, Berlin (Warnemunde), Bruges, Brussels, Copenhagen, Genoa, Helsinki, Istanbul, Kusadasi, Livorno, Marseilles, Monte Carlo, Mykonos, Naples, Nice, Palma de Mallorca, Paris, Rome (Civitavecchia), Sorrento, St. Petersburg, Stockholm, Tallinn, Valencia, and Venice.

On top of that, we have met with local tour guides from a variety of additional cruise ports to educate ourselves on accessibility throughout the Mediterranean and Baltic Seas.  We can tell you which of the cruise itineraries are the most accessible!

 

Benefit #4 – Pre-cruise Hotel Recommendations based on First-hand Accessibility Inspections

We have visited, inspected, and photographed more accessible hotels in Europe than anyone else.  No matter where your cruise departs from, we’ve got you covered.  Amsterdam, Athens, Barcelona, Berlin, Copenhagen, Istanbul, London, Monte Carlo, Naples, Rome, and Venice are some of the cities where we can recommend the most accessible, most centrally-located, and most affordable hotel rooms.

I have personally inspected numerous accessible hotel rooms so that
we can recommend the best hotels in the best neighborhoods.

 

Benefit #5 – Discounts on Accessible Shore Excursions

Sage Traveling offers more Mediterranean accessible shore excursions than anyone else in the world.  We have worked tirelessly with local providers to design excursions specifically for disabled cruisers.  We can arrange 200+ accessible shore excursions across 60+ European ports!

Because the cruise lines pay us a commission, we’re able to offer you discounts on shore excursions!  We give you a discount of €50 off each shore excursion if you book your cruise with us! (up to €150 per cruise)

We only provide discounts on accessible shore excursions to clients who have booked their cruise through us. If you have already booked your cruise, some cruise lines will allow you to transfer the reservation to our name within 30-60 days of booking. Contact us and we will check if we can transfer the reservation. Otherwise it might be free to cancel and re-book.

 

 

Q: How much do your services cost?

A: “Our cruise planning services are COMPLETELY FREE!!!  The cruise line pays us a commission when we make the reservation for you.  On top of it, we guarantee* that we will match or beat any publicly-advertised cruise fare!

* If you receive a better offer from someone else, or at another travel website, let us know and we will try our best to beat that offer.  But, we guarantee that no one can match our outstanding personalized customer service! For the guarantee to apply, it must be the same cabin, same sailing date, and same booking conditions.  It must be advertised by a cruise line or travel agency that provides legitimate customer service including solving problems during your trip (i.e. no rebate booking engines).  If by some chance we are unable to match the offer, we will happily cancel your reservation and allow you to book through any other means you choose.

 

“Donna, I can’t thank you enough for organizing our holiday!
 
Everything went perfectly: we got the airport assistance and transfers, and we got a big stateroom with a balcony and a scooter waiting to go – all much better than we expected. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable; Nilay in Istanbul was exceptionally caring. All the guides were happy to spend time in the places that particularly interested us and skip the places that didn’t.
 
Simon was absolutely thrilled. It was the holiday of a lifetime for both of us, thanks to you.”
 
− Dot, mobility scooter user who took an 11 night eastern Mediterranean Cruise planned by Sage Traveling.
