“Many a trip continues long after movement in time and space have ceased,” John Steinbeck once wrote. This is how we at City Experiences feel as the clock winds down in 2022 and we reflect on another marvelous year with our guests.

We had loads of fun with everyone who took a tour with us—be it on the water with City Cruises, on a sightseeing stroll with Walks, while tasting the local cuisine with Devour Tours or enjoying an excursion with Venture Ashore.

All told, 12.9 million guests took a tour
with City Experiences in 111 countries

Here are many other amazing 2022 milestones to commemorate:

  • 200,435 bottles of champagne were popped on our dining cruises in the US. Let’s toast to that!2022 year in review collage
