NHA Cruise Travel

Sail to the Caribbean, Thailand, Vietnam, Italy, Alaska, Australia and Spain — on small ships with friends who eat like you. 🌏

The ship’s chefs prepare whole-food plant-based meals without added salt, oil or sugar for the NHA group. No packing snacks. No guessing at the buffet. ✨

🏆 2024 Travel Weekly Magellan Gold Award for Innovation in Group Plant-Based Travel

💙 Why NHA cruises feel different

  • 🍽️ Gold-Standard meals at sea. NHA works with Windstar Cruises to create NHA-compliant meals for its group travel.
  • ⛵ Small ships, big places. Windstar’s Star Seeker carries about 220 guests — easier ports, fewer crowds.
  • 🎁 Group perks. NHA trip pages list extras such as group rates and shipboard credit on many sailings.
  • 🤝 Come solo, leave with friends. You’re traveling with people who share your plate and your purpose.
