As on other Seabourn cruises, expect decadent amenities, from a complimentary minibar stocked with your preferred drinks to wandering masseurs ready to give you a quick rubdown to a beach barbecue with fine china and caviar. This itinerary combines six cosseting days at sea, a transit of the Panama Canal (pictured), and several ecologically minded ports of call. Go snorkeling or scuba diving near the world's second-largest barrier reef, walk among the treetops in Costa Rica, and explore an ancient Mayan city in Belize. You'll also have free use of the ship's windsurf boards, kayaks, and banana boats for your full day at Hunting Caye, off the coast of Belize (800-929-9391; seabourn.com).
