Regent Seven Seas Cruises and the Aston Martin Aramco F1 team present the next phase of their partnership, collaborating on a new voyage that will tour the Mediterranean in the summer of 2025.
The so-called “Spotlight Voyage”, with the participation of former Formula 1 driver Pedro de la Rosa and members of the Aston Martin Aramco F1 team, including engineers and executives, will take place aboard the Seven Seas Splendor on a 10-night voyage starting on July 22, 2025.
In addition, several representatives from Aston Martin will also participate in this journey through a series of workshops on innovation and design.
Immersing passengers in the worlds of ultra-luxury cruises and high-performance Grand Prix racing, the cruise will visit destinations with a rich history and tradition in motorsports, such as Barcelona and Monte Carlo.
In addition, Regent Seven Seas Cruises has created multi-day themed shore excursions before and after the cruise for those guests who wish to extend their vacation, exploring famous racetracks and viewing private car collections, plus the possibility of attending an Aston Martin Aramco F1 race weekend in Hungary, following the featured voyage.

“The newly unveiled journey, which will take place at the heart of the 2025 season, is the perfect way for guests to gain an exclusive insight into the fascinating inner workings of an iconic Formula 1 team”.
