Who is the Cruise Gourmet? Why can he help?

Arie Boris has been a restaurant critic and travel writer for more than twenty years. He has sailed on and reviewed over 450 cruise ships. With a professional background including the airline industry, travel agency community and International business development, Arie’s love of travel, food and grand old ocean liners started when he was a kid.

While traveling for business, he began moonlighting as a travel writer, putting his degree in Journalism and English Literature to some practical use with articles appearing in a variety of publications. In 1995, he was invited to participate in the start up of CruiseCritic at AOL and for more than five years was one of their primary ship reviewers and contributors. In 2001, CruiseGourmet.com was born. Ever since, Arie has been sailing the Seven Seas as Editor-in-Chief of his very own publication dedicated to building a community and sharing his love for the world, its people and pleasures with you!

Over the last six years, Arie has devoted a great deal of time developing fundraising cruises for a variety of non-profit arts and philanthropic organizations.

In order to attract patrons and the kind of elite crowd willing to support a participating charity, Arie has to create a unique onboard experience that will strongly appeal to members and translate into major donations.

Arie has extensive knowledge of all the different cruise ships and what kind of experience they offer. This is why major charities are willing to hand over the organization of their fund-raising cruises to the Cruise Gourmet.

Some of the organizations he has worked with include:

- The Mabel Mercer Foundation, a Lincoln Center affiliated cultural arts organization
- Classical Action
- Broadway Cares/Equity fights AIDS
- Nassau County Museum of Art
- One of New York’s most prestigious Cultural Centers
- The 92nd Street Y
- The Association of Jewish Community Centers
