Dior Spa Cruise Makes Its Return
The French maison takes luxury, leisure and a day of pampering to a new level with its floating oasis
There are few experiences in life that feel more decadent than unwinding on the upper decks of a yacht, taking in breathtaking views of the city’s most iconic sights – the Eiffel Tower, The Louvre and Notre-Dame Cathedral – as you cruise down one of the most famous rivers in the world.
The Dior Spa Cruise is taking the art of relaxation to a new level for a second summer in a row, providing passengers with an even grander experience than last year’s inaugural sail (there’s even a small heated pool aboard!) Having transformed Parisienne yacht Excellence into a floating spa — complete with Toile de Jouy-printed parasols to shade you from the summer sun, four elegant cabins for treatments and one double cabin with its own private lounge, presumably for couples — the Maison is offering a variety of wellness experiences for those in need of a reset (perhaps post Haute Couture Week?) from July 3-14, 2023.
Voyagers can opt for The Treatment Cruise, which lasts two hours (one hour of pampering, followed by another of relaxation on deck) or The Wellness Cruise; the latter combines an hour of gentle physical activity (think Pilates or Yoga Flow) with plenty of time to unwind and take in the sights while sipping on a green juice. And for those looking to spend more time aboard the Dior Spa Cruise? The two different cruises can be combined for a four-hour journey of relaxation and pampering.
Sign us up! Here, Bazaar Arabia shares everything you need to know about the Dior Spa Cruise before your jaunt down the Seine.
