The beautiful Seabourn Sojourn is celebrating a remarkable 15 years of distinguished service, marking a wonderful milestone since it first joined the Seabourn fleet. Christened by the iconic British supermodel Twiggy on the River Thames in 2010, the Sojourn began its journey with elegance and purpose, even hosting a fundraising gala for Breast Cancer Haven before its maiden voyage. From its very first cruise through Northern Europe to its grand 111-day inaugural world cruise, the ship has consistently offered guests intimate and luxurious experiences across the globe.
