Is Expedition Cruising for You?
|
|
This week, I've been booking some folks on expedition cruises. I've booked some folks to Antartica, and I've booked some to Galapagos - I also got a wonderful offer for a solo lady (with solo supplement waived) to Galapagos with Lindblad Expeditions. I've finalized a trip around Iceland for another. And I've booked a family to the Mekong, as well as folks to the Amazon.
How do you know if expedition cruising is for you? What the heck is it, anyway - do you know?
Many folks think expedition cruising is roughing it - and while it is not a luxury cruise with a butler (although Silversea does offer butlers on their expedition cruises), most expedition cruising is about the wildlife count rather than the thread count on your sheets. It's about the adventure. It's about interacting with naturalists and biologists and historians onboard, and learning. And it's about the experience.
Expedition ships are comfortable, for sure, with good food and service, and it is far from being a European river cruise barge or a cargo freighter, expedition cruising is often the best way to get close to where you want to be, and get into the little nooks and crannies of a destination - so you're being immersed in the destination.
Generally speaking, expedition cruising means you travel on a ship - but then use a zodiac or a skiff to get to shore (because most expedition ports are not regular wharves - although my picture here is me in Louisburg, Nova Scotia on a Newfoundland circumnavigation cruise I did with Lindblad.)

It was fun to spend some time with Lynn Spence, of Cityline TV, this week as she was visiting Shepherd's Fashions to do a couple of fashion shows.
Of course, we got the group of ladies together for a "meet and greet" so those already joining us on our Dashing through the Danube cruise could meet each other, and we could answer questions and start to build excitement.
If you haven't seen Lynn on Cityline TV as their style maven, let me tell you she is a down to earth gal, and a real hoot!
Watch her on Cityline. Shepherd's Fashions is going to be featured week after next too!
And - consider booking that last cabin or two with me to join us as we go Dashing through the Danube!
