Small Ship Cruising

Our Small Ship Destination cruises are comprehensive and in the main concentrate on a particular area or theme with the focus of the voyage being the itinerary and experience to be had. Our small vessels can dock in ports which larger vessels cannot access and can often moor in the centre of town which allows for more time spent exploring the destination as opposed to travelling from and to the vessel by coach. Destinations covered by our ‘small ship destination cruising’ include the Baltic, Black Sea, Japan, Mediterranean and Adriatic. Itineraries are based upon cultural themes including Art, Music and politics of the region. Onboard you will be joined by specialist guest speakers who accompany the passengers ashore with the expert local guides and also deliver talks onboard. The advantages of exploring by small ship are numerous and include small group sizes when exploring ashore, ability to access some of the world's most pristine and untouched ports, no queuing to embark or disembark the vessel and a relaxed and informal atmosphere onboard which is conducive to becoming acquainted with fellow travellers and onboard staff and learning whether it be about the wonders of nature, the culture or ancient civilisations you are visiting.
