Cruises have been a holiday choice for many travellers around the world for many decades. In 2019, 30 million people chose cruising on ships of varying sizes, increasingly modern and luxurious, sailing the seven seas and calling at multiple destinations. The world of cruising is vast and the possibilities for leisure both on board and in the destinations visited are very diverse.

The company, combined with EscapaTV's experience in producing and broadcasting travel and tourism content, will offer information on cruise lines, gastronomy experience on board, entertainment, excursions, shows, cruise ports and destinations, itineraries and river cruise ships, among many others.
"When we started broadcasting on EscapaTV, there were no programmes that really showed what a cruise is like, what day-to-day life is like, excursions, entertainment, cabins or restaurants. We did it with river cruises which was a success and then we recorded 3 more seasons. Now we want to extend it to all cruises with this special cruise section and our viewers are asking us for more every day" commented Ángel Fernández, content director of EscapaTV.
