The daytime dress code is relaxed and informal - casual clothing is perfectly suitable both on board and ashore. We do recommend bringing comfortable footwear and being mindful of local customs when visiting religious sites or culturally sensitive destinations. Onboard staff will advise you when specific attire is recommended.
Each evening, the Daily Programme will guide you on the suggested dress code for the night’s events. Most cruises feature two ‘Formal’ or Ambassador Nights, when guests often choose to dress up. A dinner jacket or lounge suit is typical for gentlemen, while ladies usually wear evening or cocktail dresses.
On ‘Smart’ evenings, Ambassador recommend a suit or smart jacket and trousers (tie optional) for men. Women may opt for cocktail dresses, elegant trouser suits, or coordinated outfits.
‘Casual’ evenings, often when in port or holding a special event like a deck party, allow for more relaxed attire, with no set dress expectations. Feel free to wear what makes you comfortable.
