Dining
Star Clipper's inspired chefs make dining aboard a delightful culinary adventure with an international menu of foods from the far corners of the earth. When you rise, help yourself to a continental breakfast with Parisian croissants, toasted English muffins or sweet Danish pastries, or savor a full breakfast with fresh tropical fruits and crisp bacon, grilled sausage, smoked salmon and omelets cooked to order in the dining room.
When evening comes, their elegantly appointed dining room becomes the setting for the chef's finest culinary presentations, designed to please the eye and the palate, complimented by a selection of equally fine wines. You'll find the service to be friendly and gracious, as befits a tasteful restaurant. Of course, Star Clippers would not presume to dictate your seating preferences. On all three ships, you are free to dine when and with whomever you wish, including their officers, who join the guests in the dining room most nights.
The dress code: No need for formal gowns and black tie, casual elegance is the order of the day and every single night. At lunch, a marvelous buffet of seafood, salads and grilled favorites awaits your pleasure. If the day includes a stop at one of the paradisaical islands we frequent, you might also be treated to a succulent outdoor barbecue on shore.
Age Restrictions
Children are welcome on Star Clippers. While there is no structured program providing supervision and care for young children, they are invited to participate in shipboard activities suited to their ability. Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
Tipping
Gratuities on board the ship are not included in "Just Cruising Rates" and are at the sole discretion of each guest based on the level of services performed. However, we are often asked by our guests for guidance regarding gratuities, and we suggest gratuities of 8 euros per guest per day.

Onboard Activities
A windsurfer traces a zig-zag wake over dancing wave tops. A snorkeler floats over a garden blooming with purple and rose coral. A diver plays tag with a school of clown fish darting in and out of an underwater wreck. On Star Clippers, the day proceeds at your own pace, whatever that may be. Indeed, the very notion of a rigid agenda of activities is foreign to our cruises. Join the Captain on the always-open bridge as he plots the course for the next landfall. Learn how to splice a line, reef a sail or tie a square knot. Cool off with a dip in one of the pools, or unwind with a cool drink and your favorite song in the piano bar. Discover history and fascinating cultures on exciting shore excursions in our exotic ports. If it's a beach day, you can swim, windsurf, water-ski, sail a Sunfish, ride a banana boat or explore in a Zodiac. The sports staff will be happy to offer assistance, should you require it.

Because of 3 major earthquakes in the area, we could not visit Gili Kondo the 1st day. Surf, swells & high waves prevented landing there. The island of Lombok was entirely closed due to major infrastructure damage. We went to Java instead. The Captain & crew did the best they could to keep us happy.
We were assigned a TERRIBLE cabin! It was right over the ships engine and it was so noisy that even the bed vibrated. After one night and an awful headache we asked to change cabins. Luckily the ship was not full and we could change to a different cabin at the same level. It was at the front of the ship and very quiet. What a relief! But if this cabin was vacant why did we get put in what must be one of the very worst cabins on the ship?
