About Skylord Cruise and Holidays

We are a specialist travel company creating exclusive cruise and holiday packages that go beyond off-the-shelf travel. We combine decades of industry expertise with first-hand experience to design distinctive, well-considered holidays for travellers who want something more than a standard booking.

Part of Skylord Travel PLC, launched in 1983, Skylord Cruise and Holidays is built on a long-standing heritage within the travel industry. For over four decades, the Skylord name has been associated with trusted advice, industry knowledge and a deep understanding of how exceptional travel experiences are created.

Our core expertise lies in both cruise travel and tailor-made holidays, with a particular focus on developing exclusive packages that are not available elsewhere. Rather than simply selling individual components, we carefully combine cruises with flights, hotels, transfers, destinations and added experiences to create cohesive, high-value holiday itineraries.

Cruising is central to what we do. With 100's of personal cruise experiences completed worldwide across a wide range of cruise lines, ship styles and destinations, our team brings genuine first-hand insight into cruise travel. This allows us to match travellers with the right ships, itineraries and onboard experiences, while enhancing those cruises with land-based stays, extensions and carefully selected destinations.

At the same time, Skylord Cruise and Holidays is a specialist in creating worldwide holidays, designed for travellers looking for more than a single-destination break. Our expertise spans multi-centre itineraries, guided touring, solo travel experiences and carefully curated event-based holidays.

We create exclusive packages that combine destinations, experiences and travel styles into seamless, well-balanced itineraries. From long-haul multi-centre journeys and escorted tours to solo travel programmes and specialist packages for major sporting and cultural events, including Grand Prix, football and other global eventsour holidays are planned with structure, flexibility and value at their core.

Our approach is rooted in experience, not automation. With over 30 years of travel and cruise industry experience across the UK, Ireland, the United States and international markets, we understand how travel products work behind the scenes and how to structure holidays that deliver real value and memorable experiences for our clients.

We believe the best holidays are created through knowledge, planning and attention to detail. That’s why we focus on quality, exclusivity and honest guidance, only offering holidays and cruise packages that we would confidently recommend ourselves.

Skylord Cruise and Holidays works closely with cruise lines, hotels, destination partners and travel service providers to develop unique holiday combinations while maintaining independence in our advice. Our goal is simple: to create expertly crafted cruise and holiday experiences that give our clients something genuinely special.

Skylord Cruise and Holidays is also a trusted and established brand within the travel trade, working closely with hundreds of independent and multiple travel agent partners across the UK and beyond. Our holidays and cruise programmes are sold and supported by experienced travel professionals who value our product knowledge, reliability and the quality of the exclusive packages we create. These long-standing trade relationships reflect the confidence the travel industry places in Skylord to deliver well-structured, competitively positioned holidays backed by expert support.
