Regional Management Team

Our business is split into regions, each managed by a Regional Director and their experienced teams, with the local knowledge and contacts to deliver an efficient service. These regions encompass over 50 countries in which Intercruises operates, with offices in over 300 ports, serving over 70 ocean and river cruise lines. The Regional Directors manage the delivery of all services in their region, offering a one stop shop to cruise ships in the area. By contacting the Regional Director, cruise lines can organise all aspects relating to cruise ship calls for an entire region.
