MV Arion

Ship Description:

With the introduction of M/V ARION in May 2000, Arcalia Shipping Company (Lisbon, Portugal) added another beautiful ship to its renowned fleet. Arion was constructed in 1965 at Pula, in Croatia, as "Istra". Purchased by Arcalia Shipping, the ship was completely reconstructed in Lisbon in 2000. The Arion has Portuguese and international crew. Her size and characteristics make her well adequate to operate destination cruises to unusual places away from the main cruising areas.

Ship's amenities:

Traditional English breakfast is served in the dinning room or, weather permitting, in our Lido lounge. During lunch you can savour some fresh pasta, light salads, international cuisine or healthy choice that reflects modern tastes; afternoon tea, delicious finger sandwiches and warm scones with Devon-clotted cream and jam and a wide selection of teas. Dinner is a culinary experience with a balanced menu to please even the most difficult diets. Menus are established by our Master Chefs who are members of the most famous culinary associations like "Les Toques Blanches Internationales".
