The line also announced that the new vessel would have more than 100 cabins for solo travellers – 20% of the ship’s capacity.
Spirit of Discovery, which is being built in the Meyer Werft shipyard, will be delivered in summer 2019.
Robin Shaw, chief executive, Saga Cruises, said: “The name Spirit of Discovery evokes the adventurous nature and new experiences that cruise customers desire. Key to the whole design process has been our customer insight.
“We know they want to experience new things in a luxurious, small ship environment. Our new ship’s itineraries will take customers to fresh, new destinations and will include more overnight stays in key ports.”
