Small ship cruising takes you far from the beaten track
and close up to places no other kind of cruising can
reach. Our ship's small size means it can negotiate narrow
waterways, shallow bays and quiet rivers where bigger
ships cannot go.
Unlike big ships and large scale international ports,
a small ship allows you to experience places where the
nature, history and culture remain fresh, where the flood
of tourists has not overrun them and will not overrun
you. Places where you will meet and interact with the
locals and discover how the waterway plays a vital role
in their normal day to day lives.
Of course you still enjoy all the comforts larger ships
provide: swimming pools, sun decks, bars, quality dining,
massage and beauty treatments, entertainment and good
company. Individual Experience
Limited numbers onboard mean every guest is welcomed
and known as an individual. That is why our crew-members
have to be really special. Bright, skilled, often locally
recruited, they are eager to share their extensive knowledge
and make your small ship experience personal.
Because you are in a smaller group, there is time for
learning and experiencing. Onboard and on-site experts
provide fascinating insights into the history, landscape,
biology and ecology of the regions we explore. Around
our informal dinner tables, you can share your own adventures
with new friends.
Active? It is up to You
We encourage a hands-on approach, but always leave you
in charge of your own activity level. If there is a headland
to climb or a reef to snorkel, you are invited. If you
want to take it easy by the onboard pool, just ask for
a towel and maybe grab a thriller from the library.
The keys are informality and flexibility with the focus
on making each experience as revealing and memorable
as it can be.
