Expedition

Where a lot of WOW happens.  Places that change you once you have been.  No number of photos and videos can replace you physically being there.  

Extraordinary experiences for adventurous, curious learners.  Discover places often inaccessible other then by small ship (or zodiaks) - untouched and pristine beauty, the rarely seen, nature, wildlife and culture up close and personal.  Soft adventure in a very safe way. 

Purpose built ships that take you to Antarctica, Greenland, Galapagos, Baja, Costa Rica, Alaska, Amazon, Chilean fjords... Arctic, tropical, sub-tropical and so much more.

​The world is your oyster with itineraries available on all continents.  ​

Adventure 

Adventure ships - a little bit of expedition and a whole lot of fun! 

Daily schedules are largely dictated by Mother Nature as there are few to no actual ports of call.  You may be following a whale pod, kayaking quiet coves, snorkeling with playful seal pups or hiking through pristine forest. Explore Alaska, Hawaii, the Pacific Northwest, Baja California, Panama and Costa Rica.   

A truly unique adventure is on the Aranui 5 - a combination cruise and cargo ship sailing in French Polynesia.   The islands rely on the Aranui to bring needed products and to ship out their own for export.  Sail along in comfort while immersing yourself in local culture like no other sailing.

Sailing Adventures

Imagine yourself on the teak deck of an elegant clipper ship, a warm breeze blowing in your face as the crew unfurl the sails above you. One of the most incredible experiences you'll ever have.  This is not a cruise! 

Sail to iconic and small hidden gem ports in the Caribbean, Eastern and Western Mediterranean and Southeast Asia.   

Or choose an itinerary on a luxury sailing yacht - all the luxury amenities and service tucked into an intimate ship without the crowds.  

Coastal Ships

Coastal ships - the description is pretty self explanatory.  With fewer than 300 passengers, these ships are small enough to get into lesser visited ports of call along the coasts, for example along the New England coast, the islands of Maine and Alaska's Inside Passage.  

These ships are beautifully appointed, have spacious cabins, excellent cuisine and entertainment.  They tend not to be as active oriented as the expedition, adventure and sailing type ships.   

Yacht Style

With 125 or fewer guests, this is like sailing on your own private super yacht.  It's more like a personal getaway than a cruise.

Casually elegant yet laid back ambiance.  Abundance of space.  And with a 1:1 guest to crew  ratio, you know service is exceptional and personalized.  

Because of their size, these ships have access to unique and intimate ports of call.  But beware, once you have experience this style, you will be asking yourself why you didn't try it sooner!
