Villa Vie Launches Four-Year Residential Cruise

Villa Vie Residences has launched the Tour La Vie program, offering a unique residential cruise lasting up to four years, aimed at those wishing to escape the political landscape in the U.S. following Donald Trump's election. The cruise will visit over 425 ports across 140 countries, with pricing starting at around $40,000 per person per year, which includes meals, Wi-Fi, and medical services. CEO Mikael Petterson noted that the marketing campaign was designed to provide an option for those feeling threatened by current events, regardless of political affiliation. The itinerary includes significant destinations like the Caribbean, South America, and experiences such as Rio's Carnival and an Amazon River expedition. The company has reported a surge in interest since the program was announced, highlighting a notable demand for extended travel options in uncertain times. Despite the lofty costs, the package is designed to offer a luxurious escape from the U.S. political climate.
