Miray Cruises has unveiled MV Lara, a new cruise ship that will "redefine the realm of extended voyages." After the overwhelming demand received from the initial launch of Life at Sea Cruises, Miray Cruises has now acquired a newer, larger vessel to offer a three-year voyage.
MV Gemini, the former cruise ship that successfully launched Life at Sea Cruises, is slated to continue its Aegean voyages and will now be succeeded by MV Lara. While larger than MV Gemini, MV Lara will still maintain an intimate feel and experience for the residents onboard who are looking to create a like-minded community at sea for the three-year voyage. Residents will experience a neighborhood-type feel onboard MV Lara and indulge in a sense of community and belonging.
The new vessel offers redesigned staterooms, a business center with offices, a cigar and wine bar, and other creative offerings. There will also be a 24-hour on-call hospital with complimentary medical visits, educational and enriching lectures, and opportunities to engage in volunteer and philanthropic initiatives. During the three-year journey, the 42,000 gross ton vessel’s voyage will span over 130,000 miles covering 382 ports, seven continents and 148 countries.
The itinerary for the world’s first three-year cruise was created by Robert Dixon and encompasses 13 Wonders of the World and UNESCO World Heritage Sites, besides other locations. At each port of call, travelers will have the luxury of multiple days for unhurried exploration and the freedom to embark on their own unique adventures. Prior to its inaugural departure from Istanbul on November 1, 2023, Miray Cruises will host a series of welcoming events and revelries in Turkey for all passengers. The events will coincide with the 100th anniversary celebrations of the foundation of the Turkish Republic.
