What's inside

Everything about your trip, and nothing about anyone else's.

Other cruise apps cover every ship and every port. Yours covers one sailing: the one you booked. Open a full example app, made for a made-up couple's week in the Caribbean.

Port guides

A guidebook for every port, written for the hours you have.

Each stop gets its own guide, like a chapter of a travel book, but cut down to the day you're actually there.

  1. Why it's worth itThe place in a paragraph
  2. From the pierWhere you dock and how to get into town
  3. Know before you goMoney, plugs, tipping, language
  4. Top sightsWith one marked as our pick
  5. Your hours ashoreA plan that gets you back for all-aboard
  6. Eat and drinkLocal dishes and what they are
  7. BeachesThe ones within reach of the ship
  8. What things costTypical prices, so nothing surprises you
  9. History and cultureThe story behind what you'll see
  10. Local phrasesA few words that make people smile

Everything is saved on your phone, so the guides open at sea and ashore without data roaming.

Giving it as a surprise? Tell us who it's for. We send the link and passcode to you, ready to hand over.

How it works

You tell us the sailing. We do the rest.

Tell us about your trip

Your ship, sailing date, cabin number, first names and the occasion. Add up to 10 photos if you like.

We build your app

We put together your route, port guides and deck plan, then check every port time against the published itinerary.

Add it to your phone

You get a private link, a passcode and a three-step guide to putting it on your home screen.

We never ask for passport details. A ship, a sailing date and first names are enough to start. Booking references go into your app only if you choose Planned and send them.

Works with any cruise line.

Big ship or small, river or ocean: if it has a published itinerary, we can build your app.

  • Cunard
  • P&O Cruises

* Cruise line names and logos are shown only to say which sailings we can build for, and belong to their owners. We are independent and not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of them.

Pricing

One price per trip. No subscription.

One app covers everyone travelling together, on as many phones as you like.

Voyage

The trip itself, clear and close to hand.

Questions

Good to know before you order.

Which cruise lines and ships do you cover?

Any cruise line, ocean or river. Send us the ship and the sailing date and we build from the published itinerary. We are an independent service and are not affiliated with any cruise line.

Does it really work without internet?

Yes. Open the app once on Wi-Fi or mobile data before you leave. It saves itself to your phone, and from then on it opens with no signal.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes, both. It opens from a private link and you add it to your home screen, where it gets its own icon. There is nothing to install from an app store.

Which package should I choose?

Voyage is the trip itself: the route, the port guides, the ship guide and your lists. Personal makes it yours, with your cabin on the deck plan, your photos, a page for the occasion and a second language. Planned adds an hour-by-hour plan built around what you have booked, with your flights, transfers and payment dates. The example app switches between all three.

What do you need from me?

For Voyage, the ship, the sailing date, first names and your language. For Personal, add your cabin number, the occasion and up to 10 photos. For Planned, also send what you have booked: excursions, dinners, flights and payment dates. We never need passport details, and booking numbers go in only if you want them there.

How is my information kept private?

Each app is encrypted and opens only with your passcode. We delete the files you sent us 30 days after your trip ends.

What if the cruise line changes a port time?

It happens. The cruise line's own app and daily programme always have the final word on times, and every port page in your app says so. Tell us about a change before you sail and we update your app.

How do I pay?

By card, Apple Pay or Google Pay when you place your order. Payments go through Stripe, so we never see your card number. If we can't build an app for your sailing, we refund you in full.
