Princess & Discovery at SEA
Cruise Circle
The Discovery Channel, launched in the mid-1980s, is watched by millions of TV viewers worldwide. It provides factual entertainment on science, technology, and history. Working with Princess, they deliver a range of exclusive activities and excursions on your cruise, giving a deeper insight into the world we live in. Many of the activities are widely available, where possible, but some will depend on your destination (a lecture about grizzly bears in the Canaries might be a bit odd, after all).
Experiences shaped by this partnership
Encounters with experts - For a deeper understanding of the destinations you visit
Naturalists and destination experts have been invited onboard to share their knowledge and experiences. Prepare to be educated, inspired and entertained. Stories passed down by the elders Step back in time with living history Far more engaging than reading a book; you'll get a real sense of stepping back in time on some of their excursions, with opportunities to meet costumed, indigenous peoples and take part in activities that defined their culture (...please be careful with that Viking axe!)
Meet some mammals - Exclusive opportunities with Animal Planet
It's hard to describe why encounters with wildlife are so special. No doubt they're beautiful to look at. Still, it feels like something else is going on - maybe it's a reminder of how amazing evolution and life on this planet is, or maybe it's something deeper and more spiritual (as the Native Americans on a trip to Alaska might tell you). As part of Discovery, Animal Planet is one of the most popular TV channels for shows all about the animal kingdom, and they have recommended several excursions exclusive to Princess.
Princess stargazing specialists - Identify the major constellations, hear the secrets and folklore of the stars
At the risk of sounding like we're going through an existential crisis, just like the enrichment gained through animal encounters isn't merely about beauty (see above), the appeal of stargazing goes beyond pretty twinkling lights, perhaps acting as a moment of a reflection on the awesomeness of the universe and that, yes, we are on a spinning rock surrounded by nothingness. Out on the ocean, with lower light pollution, Princess' stargazing specialists will guide you through the awesomeness of the night sky. You can also watch big screen movies on top deck underneath the stars, too - sweet or salty popcorn?
