Dance the Night Away
Cruise Ship Dance Host Opportunities for Gentlemen in the UK
Gentleman dance hosts, are very popular on the Saga cruise ships. When a lady travels without a male companion, it enhances their holiday to have a friendly partner to dance and socialise with. This is where we come in, sourcing gentleman dancers who wish to become cruise ship dance hosts. We are looking for fit healthy gentlemen who are prepared to join in the fun of cruising.
Your Contribution
Saga is known for creating happy ships, both for the passengers and the crew. You will play a part in this by socialising and dancing with the passengers. This is particularly important for the unaccompanied ladies onboard.

It is also encouraged to volunteer to go ashore with excursions as The Saga Representative. On cruises that last four weeks or more, four hosts will be on-board.
Two hosts share a twin room when on-board the cruise and receive allowances as part of their terms and conditions. When on the Cruise hosts are answerable to the Cruise Director.
