| Noble Caledonia Associations |
| Over the
years Noble Caledonia have been working closely with a small number
of select cruise operators who have the same ethos as ourselves.
Some of you will have started to notice our adverts and brochures
appearing in a different style and bearing logos ‘in association
with’...
We are proud to have strengthened our bonds with our associates
and are working together and combining our different areas of expertise
in order to be able to offer you even more diverse travel experiences.
We would like to take this opportunity to explain to you in little
more detail the aims of our associates and what this means to you.
Please select an Associate to see their current tours. |

Cruise West
We are delighted to be working with Cruise West, owners of the Spirit of Oceanus, which is the sister ship to the MS Island Sky. The aims of Cruise West are very similar to our own. No floor shows, casinos or any other big ship experiences; just small ship cruising, focused on the destination, its scenery, wildlife, natural history and culture, all in the company of limited numbers of like-minded travellers. |
