  • 2012 update: Peter Deilmann left its main business, river cruising, in 2009. At the time, the company said that it would continue to operate the ocean vessel Deutschland, but its U.S. and British Web sites were no longer functioning the last time we checked, so it would appear that the company is now focusing on its core German-speaking audience.

photoPeter Deilmann Cruises operates a single oceangoing cruise ship, MS Deutschland, which recreates the atmosphere of classic transatlantic liners with its Edwardian "Grand Hotel" decor. The ship carries 513 passengers in staterooms that range from inside single cabins to a pair of veranda suites.

photoMost of the MS Deutschland's passengers are German, but in the past, the line has marketed some cruises to English-speaking travelers, and it still offers a chance for German-speaking guests from overseas to mingle with Europeans while cruising in Europe.

Trivia note: Since 1999, the Deutschland has played a starring role in Das Traumschiff, a long-running German TV series that might be described as an upmarket version of The Love Boat. (For a while, the series logo was even painted on the ship's stack.)
