Age Groups and Restrictions
Our Junior Activities Program is Three-Tiered:

• 3-7 year olds

Crystal Cruises is unable to accommodate children less than six months of age and reserves the right to restrict the number of those less than three years of age aboard the ships. Please note that the Casino is off-limits to children under the age of 18 and children are not permitted in front rows of show lounges.

Programme Availability
Crystal Cruises is renowned in the luxury cruise category for its dedicated children’s facilities. They offer a children’s playroom and babysitting services on all cruises. During holiday cruises, summer cruises and selected sailings, comprehensive children’s activities are offered under the supervision of experienced Junior Activities Directors. Activities are determined by age and the number of children on board; therefore, the detailed schedule of events is created at the beginning of each cruise.
