About Saga Holidays
The Saga Group, based in the United Kingdom, was founded in 1951 as a privately owned tour company offering vacation packages within the U.K. to travelers ages 60 and over. Saga soon expanded their offerings to include European destinations and later in Asia. Nowadays, Saga bills itself as a cruise, tour and resort company "for today's over 50's" (the qualifying age dropped from 60 to 50 in 1995).
In 1975, Saga Holidays offered its senior customers a world cruise for the first time, and began to build a portfolio of at-sea offerings. But it wasn't until almost 20 years later in 1996 that Saga bought its first wholly owned cruise ship -- Cunard's Sagafjord, which was renamed Saga Rose. In 2003, Saga doubled its fleet with the purchase of a second and similar cruise ship -- Cunard's Caronia (formerly Vistafjord), which is now known as Saga Ruby.
Saga Holidays is part of the larger Saga Group, which provides various services to seniors in the U.K. In addition to its travel division, Saga Group offers flexible and affordable healthcare and insurance options, and its own radio stations and magazine geared toward a more mature audience. But it is Saga Cruises that will interest North Americans most.
