Cruise Line ProgramsTall ships under full sail, with a casual, social atmosphere your group will love.
Star Clippers operates true tall ships, including Star Flyer, Star Clipper and the five-masted Royal Clipper, that sail under canvas whenever the wind allows.
The ships carry a small number of guests, the dress code is relaxed, and guests can help with the sails or climb to the crow’s nest on some voyages. It is informal, active and very social, which makes it ideal for team-building and reward trips.
For groups who want something different from a big ship, this is an easy recommendation. If you are still weighing lines against each other, the at-sea overview lays out how we compare them.
Watching the sails fill as the ship leaves port is the moment everyone talks about.
No formality, plenty of deck space and an atmosphere that brings a group together.
The ships reach harbours and beaches the big ships skip.
With a small guest count, full charters are within reach for many groups.

We will match the ship and the itinerary to your dates and your group size.
Buy the Sea has been placing corporate groups at sea for twenty-six years, across every major line. We know how Star Clippers works, and we know what to ask for and when to ask for it so that your program gets the ships, the spaces and the dates it needs. That is the part we handle.
Bring us a headcount, a budget and a range of dates. We will come back with real options with Star Clippers — and across every other line, because we represent all of them and we are paid by the cruise line, never by you. There is no fee, no markup and no obligation. Here is why that matters.
Within reason, and often more of it than planners expect — signage, screens, key cards, venue naming and private events are all on the table. What is possible comes together at negotiation, and we will walk you through it.
Yes, subject to dates. The ships are small enough that full charters are realistic for many corporate groups.
Nothing. We are compensated by the cruise line, never by you. Twenty-six years of doing it this way is covered in why Buy the Sea.
