Select cruise lines also offer culinary activities. Crystal Cruises, for example, started its guest chef program on world cruises in the early 1990s and has since expanded to more than a dozen itineraries. In addition to the sure-fire appeal of the cooking demonstrations and tastings by celebrated chefs, the line sees it as an educational tool for its own chefs. Adding a winemaker or sommelier boosts wine sales.
