Innovative technology allows tour leaders to provide key insights to all participants, up close or steps away
Regent Seven Seas Cruises, voted the “#1 Small-Ship Cruise Line” in Condé Nast Traveler’s 2007 Readers’ Choice Awards poll, will launch a revolutionary headphone system this summer, allowing guests participating in shore excursions and land tours to hear their guides clearly and effectively beyond normal speaking range. The system will be carried aboard Regent Seven Seas ships and used at tourism sites where the company’s expert lecturers and guides find it particularly useful, including historic and religious landmarks where loud conversation is forbidden.
The innovative system utilizes a small microphone through which the user can speak directly to guests wearing individual, lightweight headsets. Created in Italy, the system allows Regent Seven Seas lecturers and guides to provide guests with key facts and expert insight as they tour international tourism sites.
The system will debut on June cruises to the Baltic and Europe aboard the 700-guest, all-suite, all-balcony Seven Seas Voyager®, and the 490-guest, all-suite Seven Seas Navigator®, as well as on the September 10 Grand Asia Pacific cruise aboard the 700-guest, all-suite, all-balcony Seven Seas Mariner®. The headsets are individually packaged and disposable, meaning guests will receive a new, completely sanitary set with each tour.
“Having our own system allows us to use it across a wide spectrum of Regent shore excursions and gives us the flexibility to provide our guests with enlightening information and commentary at all times,” said Dairus Mehta, Director of Land Programs for Regent Seven Seas. “The system represents another first for The Regent Travel ConciergeSM, giving our guides an intimate and effective way to provide key details to guests as they tour historic landmarks.”
