FAQs about Specialty Cruises

Ask the expert
What destinations are visited on an adventure cruise?

Adventure cruises typically visit destinations that are more off the beaten path and offer unique and exciting experiences for travelers. Some popular destinations visited on adventure cruises include remote islands, polar regions like Antarctica or the Arctic, exotic wildlife-rich habitats such as the Galapagos Islands, and cultural gems like the ancient temples of Southeast Asia. These cruises often focus on outdoor activities like hiking, kayaking, and wildlife viewing, allowing travelers to immerse themselves in the natural beauty and culture of these lesser-known destinations.

 
What is an Antarctic cruise like?

An Antarctic cruise is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that offers breathtaking landscapes, pristine icy wilderness, and unparalleled wildlife sightings. Passengers on an Antarctic cruise can expect to witness massive glaciers, towering icebergs, and an array of marine animals such as penguins, seals, and whales. The thrill of exploring such a remote and untouched region, combined with the expert guidance of experienced naturalists and expedition staff, make an Antarctic cruise an unforgettable adventure.

What is an expedition cruise?
Expedition cruises are different from traditional cruises in that they focus on exploration and adventure in remote and unique destinations. These cruises often involve smaller ships that can navigate in more remote areas, allowing passengers to visit places that larger cruise ships cannot access. Expedition cruises offer passengers the opportunity to participate in activities such as guided nature walks, kayaking, wildlife viewing, and visits to remote villages. The emphasis is on experiencing the natural environment and culture of the destinations, rather than on the onboard amenities typically found on traditional cruises.
What is a Galapagos cruise experience like?

A Galapagos cruise experience is like no other. It offers a unique opportunity to explore the pristine beauty and incredible wildlife of the Galapagos Islands up close. From snorkeling with sea lions and turtles to hiking through volcanic landscapes, every day on a Galapagos cruise is filled with unforgettable experiences. Expert guides provide in-depth knowledge about the flora and fauna of the islands, while luxurious accommodations and top-notch service ensure a comfortable and relaxing journey. Overall, a Galapagos cruise experience is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that will leave you in awe of the natural wonders of this remarkable archipelago.

Are adventure cruises just for younger people?

Adventure cruises are not just for younger people. In fact, there are many cruise companies that cater specifically to older adults who are looking for a more adventurous and active vacation experience. These cruises offer a variety of activities such as hiking, kayaking, snorkeling, and wildlife watching, making them appealing to travelers of all ages. Additionally, many older adults are looking for unique and exciting experiences in their retirement years, making adventure cruises a popular choice for those seeking something beyond the typical cruise ship amenities.

Do I need to purchase traveler's insurance for a cruise?
It is highly recommended to purchase traveler’s insurance for a cruise. Traveler’s insurance can protect you financially in case of unexpected events such as trip cancellations, medical emergencies, lost luggage, or other unforeseen circumstances. With the cost of cruises being quite substantial, having insurance can provide you with peace of mind and help you avoid potentially hefty expenses. It is always better to be prepared for any possibility while traveling.
