Small ship cruising is a far cry from the hustle and bustle of the massive, thousands-strong cruise ships zig-zagging from port to port. Ranging from river barges, fancy yachts and sports cruisers right up to mini cruise ships with a few hundred guests on board, small ship cruising allows for a level of delightful indulgence and personal service that sets it apart from the huge behemoths of the sea. Venture to remote locations and experience cultural and wildlife in a way that is authentic and engaging, without the crowds. From the Arctic and Antarctica to smaller destinations in the Mediterranean and tiny islands across the Pacific, small ships equal big experiences. 

Like the very oceans they cruise upon, each small ship cruise operator has its own stories and unique character, which our cruise specialists can help you discover.
