people, who want the finest in service, expertise and value.

Condé Nast Traveler Magazine awarded Nancy
Kelly, President of Kelly Cruises, for the Seventh Consecutive
Year in 2007, as one of
the "Top Travel Specialists in the
World."
Our
business has grown each year and our clients’ tastes and appetites have
matured to the more exotic and adventurous travel venues. Our
clients rely on
us to recommend more than just cruises. We also assist with hotels
arrangements and unique sightseeing excursions, including private car
tours, with English-speaking drivers. Our expertise and knowledge
enables us to offer advice on just about anything under the sun to anywhere in the world.
Kelly
Cruises’ staff, the majority of whom have more than 15 years experience
each, includes sales agents, group coordinators, sales service
coordinators, as well as marketing and website specialists. We are dedicated to taking care of every important
detail, which contributes to the pleasure and satisfaction of our
clients’ travel experience. Collectively, the entire staff has sailed
on over 300 cruises on the world’s most popular ships and cruise lines.
We are experts when it comes to matching our clients to the perfect ship
and itinerary that best suits their needs. Our group and volume
discounts give us a special advantage not possible to smaller agencies.
We handle everything from World Cruise passengers to honeymooners to
individual travelers. Our groups consist of family and promotional
groups of 10 to 500, as well as incentive groups, requiring meetings and
events onboard. Our business is the perfect mix of 60% individuals and
40% groups.
Destinations of special expertise include Alaska Cruises and Tours,
Europe, China, Australia / New Zealand, the Caribbean, Hawaii, Tahiti and
the Panama Canal. As cruise specialists, our primarily expertise
is on cruise and cruisetour travel. We will do our best to
accommodate hotel and resort travel requests through our destination
specialists. |
Dealing with a
cruise expert makes a difference
It is more than the lowest fare that gives consumers a compelling
reason to use an agency that specializes in cruises.

The Best
Possible Rates and More: As a top producer for all major cruise
lines, Kelly Cruises has the clout and “volume buying power” to make
it happen! Going direct to the cruise line, tour operator or a small
travel agency will not guarantee the best price because the consumer
has no buying power. Our relationship with the cruise lines allows us
to pass along not only savings, but enhance your experience with value
added amenities such as shipboard credits or other custom amenities on
deluxe packages.
-
We stay up-to-date on the most current promotions:
Cruise lines take their best offers to their top producing agencies
first. New offers come in daily. We provide our clients private
publications, periodic newsletters and email news on the latest
specials on cruises, tours and resorts vacations. Some of these
specials are priced so low, the cruise lines restrict us from
advertising them, except to select clients. If you would like to
benefit from these savings, feel free to complete our
client
profile to qualify.
