Sail And Adventure Cruising

Cruises now offer more adventure with cruising under sail and itineraries in the more remote parts of the world. Most cruises are on smaller ships able to sail where the larger ships cannot go, many have sports platforms from which to swim, kayak or launch inflatable's to get closer to the action.

If you want to cruise under sail onboard a many masted tall ship, you have the choice of authentic sailing ships, modern replicas or the latest modern cruise-sail ships. The vessels are small by cruise line standards so the facilities onboard are limited but you will have the unique combination of sailing tradition with cruise ship comforts.

Soft Adventure Cruising

Larger and more luxurious cruise ships now visit the Arctic and Antarctica to view the incredible landscapes in comfort. Smaller up-close ships also offer a more detailed exploration of less harsh regions like Alaska and Mexico and the opportunity to snorkel and dive the reefs and islands of the Indian Ocean and Pacific.

Expedition on Cruising If all that is not tough enough, try an expedition cruise around the Arctic, Antarctica or the Galapagos Islands. Typically, an expedition cruise will visit more remote and inhospitable areas and feature excursions ashore aboard Zodiacs. Experts in geology, botany and wildlife accompany passengers ashore and lead guided walks.

Antarctica Here you will find fantastic natural beauty and abundant wildlife in one of the most forbidding places on earth. You can explore this incredible landscape up close on an expedition cruise or from the comfort of a larger ship.
