Seas the Day with Club Adventures

Some of the most rewarding travel experiences take place when we create lasting memories with friends, both old and new. During this past year, we may not have been able to make new travel memories, but we reminisced over video chats, cooked dishes from our favorite parts of the world and researched the next destinations on our bucket lists. And, when you’re ready to venture out and beginning checking off your list again, consider embarking on an adventure cruising tour with Club Adventures. 

All aboard for cruising done differently

Adventure cruising is unlike any other cruising experience. With less than 50 passengers on every small ship, enjoy the amenities of a cruise - without the crowds. This reduced capacity also allows you to get to know your fellow adventurers, and whether traveling solo or with a group, you’ll form friendships with like-minded travelers to last a lifetime. From traversing diverse terrain and exploring stunning landscapes, to savoring local cuisine and witnessing cultural traditions, you’ll always have someone to share all your exhilarating adventures with.  

As a passenger aboard a small-boat adventure cruise, spend your days discovering vibrant destinations and admiring breathtaking scenery, then return to the comfort of a home base. Unpack once at the beginning of your trip and spend the rest of your adventure focusing on what really matters – the experience.

Set Sail and Get Local

Not only will you get to know your fellow passengers on your small-boat adventure cruise, but you’ll also be able to spend more time with your tour leader. Whether you want to learn more about the cultural history of a destination or just get additional information about the tour itinerary, these smaller group sizes allow for ample time to truly get to know your local leader.  

Throughout the cruise, you’ll have the chance to learn more about local culture from people who live in the destination. From chatting with local craftsmen in Croatia to enjoying a dance with an indigenous tribe in Panama, there are plenty of unique experiences to immerse yourself in.  

Small Ships, Inspired Experiences

With these small-ship adventures, explore more destinations located off the beaten path. Unlike traditional cruising experiences, by traveling in a smaller vessel, you can enjoy more flexibility while onboard and when you reach land. Meander your way through remote islands, discover hidden treasures and avoid throngs of tourists. Plus, in between stops, take a dip in the sea and bask in the serene waters of your destination!

While living like a local, you can also enjoy the comforts of home. Upon your return to the ship after a day of exploring, take advantage of 4-star accommodations and personalized service. As one of only a few passengers on board, you can become acquainted with the crew members and enjoy exclusive access to world-class amenities that you wouldn’t normally receive on a larger-scale cruise.  

Of course, no adventure would be complete without savoring the local cuisine. During your trip, enjoy cultural meals both on land and at sea, from sampling treats at a bustling market to sharing a gourmet dinner prepared by the onboard chef. Take part in unforgettable dining experiences like barbecues on the beach, traditional feasts, wine tastings and more.  

But don’t just take our word for it. In the words of Bethany Hodge, avid traveler and Travel Product Manager at Club Adventures,

“Adventure cruising is one of my favorite ways to travel. The scenery is always changing as you bond with fellow travelers that you truly get to know during your trip. And since you’re on board a smaller vessel you get to go further into destinations that larger ships can’t. Your onboard experience is comfortable, the food is amazing, and you still enjoy cultural immersion and time to explore - while only unpacking your bags once!”

As you plan your adventures for the coming year, get to know all the ways you can experience a destination through Adventure Cruising. These small but mighty ships bring to life experiences of a lifetime, allowing you to explore undiscovered locations all while forging friendships you'll cherish for years to come. Plus, our floating boutique hotels will become your favorite new way to travel - meet the fleet here. Ready? Let's go!
