  • Saga Ruby
    Saga Ruby was the last cruise ship to be built in Britain. Her timeless character and unique features make her a real passenger favourite. Saga Ruby carries a maximum of only 661 passengers, so she's big enough to have plenty of space and facilities but small enough so you won't feel lost in the crowd.
  • Enchanting Bruges
    Bruges is often called the Venice of the North and is an enchanting city filled with hidden canals, medieval towers and some of the best chocolate shops in Belgium. Discover this medieval masterpiece, with its maze of crumbling cobbled streets that beg to be explored.
  • Ijmuiden for Amsterdam
    Founded as a fishing village in the 13th century, Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands, although the seat of Government is at The Hague. Tree-shaded canals, arched bridges, colourful cafes and historic buildings combine to create a magical atmosphere which is unique to this city.
  • Classic Cruise experience
    While you're at sea, there's always something to do. From a watching a film in the on-board cinema, to indulging yourself with a treatment in the spa. In the evenings you can look forward to exquisite food in one of three restaurants followed by a range of entertainment. Saga Ruby is a great ship for your mini cruise and to enjoy a snippet of the continent.
  • A taste of Guernsey
    With its magical mix of French and English culture, Guernsey is the second largest of the Channel Islands. It is renowned for its friendly atmosphere, temperate climate, fascinating history and rich natural heritage.
