Getaway GuidesTravel

Private group cruise planning

Bring your people. We’ll make the cruise feel effortless.

From family reunions and celebrations to clubs and company retreats, your dedicated guide handles group space, traveler questions, and the details that organizers should not have to carry alone.

Start planning

Private groups

Your guest list, your purpose, your trip.

Choose an invitation-only cruise with planning support, bring your own group leader, or ask us to help decide the right structure.

Private by default

Only invited travelers can see and join your group.

One planning partner

We coordinate group space, deadlines, traveler support, and supplier details.

Hosted your way

Travel without a host, bring your own organizer, or explore professional hosting.

Looking for hosted cruises?

Join a sailing that is open to everyone.

Hosted cruises are published group departures anyone can request to book. A Getaway Guides host sails with the group, and select departures may center on a theme, community, celebration, or shared interest.

Have an idea for a hosted cruise?

Private, public, hosted, or still deciding—we can help.

Use the same form for a private trip, a publicly available group, or an idea you would like Getaway Guides to host. Public groups appear on the website only after staff review and publication; private groups remain invitation-only.
