About Us KV

We have been organizing dance cruises since 2003. Our business grew so rapidly that Vivian closed her dance studio in 2016 to focus 100% on dance cruises and cruises for dancers. We call a cruise a dance cruise when we escort the cruise and arrange for private dance events for our customers. However, most of our customers are dancers, so if you book with us, you will probably be traveling with dancers.

We are experts in luxury travel, especially with companies like Cunard and Crystal, who have ballroom dancing, dance teachers, and dance hosts on many of their cruises. We can book you on any cruise line and will help you find a compatible cabin mate if necessary. Our customers become our friends and see each other over and over again, as we cruise and dance around the world.
