Small ship cruising is the fastest growing segment of the cruise industry. Their differentiator being they can get closer to the action by accessing locations inaccessible by the larger ships. This means closer connections with the places you visit and opportunities for adventure abound. Imagine snorkeling and kayaking around remote islands and islets in the Galapagos. In Alaska, cruise where the big ships can't go - through narrow channels, in fjords and at the terminus of ice rivers. Skiff along the towering walls of a steep fjord or take a polar-bear plunge off the back of the ship. Join a Denali park ranger on board for a talk on the flora and fauna of the park.
Join renowned experts on specialty themed exploration cruises in photography, wine, culinary, wellness, birding, or scuba-diving and enjoy onboard lectures, workshops and activities throughout the voyage.
The small cruise ships certainly don't skimp on luxury. Spacious suites with verandas and butler service is standard. Staff-to-guest ratios of 1:1 ensures highly personalized service. Fine dining is a high priority offering diverse and exquisite menus.
