At Cruises by Bob — Nairobi’s trusted cruise travel agency — we connect Kenyan travelers with boutique cruise lines that offer something different from the ordinary. Celestyal Cruises is a top choice for those who want a cultural journey, not just a holiday at sea.

Celestyal’s mid-sized ships create an intimate environment where every port matters and every experience is curated. If you’ve dreamt of wandering the streets of Santorini, tracing history in Ephesus, or discovering the Arabian Gulf, Celestyal makes it possible — and Cruises by Bob ensures your entire trip from Nairobi is seamless.

Why Choose Celestyal Cruises?

Boutique Ships

Celestyal’s ships carry fewer than 1,200 guests, giving you a cozy, intimate atmosphere. Unlike massive cruise liners, you won’t feel lost in the crowd. This boutique size means smoother boarding, friendlier service, and access to unique ports that big ships simply can’t visit. For Kenyan travelers, it’s the perfect balance between comfort and cultural exploration.

Immersive Cultural Journeys

With Celestyal, it’s not just about sailing — it’s about living the destination. Their itineraries include longer stays in port, guided excursions, and authentic local experiences. Imagine wandering through ancient ruins in Ephesus, watching a Santorini sunset, or exploring Abu Dhabi’s desert wonders — all with enough time to truly enjoy them. Onboard, Greek-inspired dining, music, and entertainment bring the local culture to life.
