Enjoy the intimate ambience of a sailing cruise!
Travelers tend to choose sailing cruises for several reasons. First, sailing cruises offer a more intimate cruise experience. These are not the giant cruise ships that can house thousands of passengers; instead, they’re smaller vessels that are powered by the wind -- like the sailing ships of long ago. With that comes a smaller ship and a smaller number of passengers, meaning you’re more likely to get to know your fellow passengers and to spend time in ports that can accommodate smaller ships -- offering a more intimate experience on board as well as on shore.
Travelers also choose sailing cruises for another reason: They’re a more ecological way to travel. Because the ships utilize wind power to get them where they’re going, they’re more Earth-friendly -- something that’s important for today’s eco-traveler.
Don’t get it wrong though; sailing cruises still offer the luxury and fun of other cruises -- just on a smaller scale. Expect your accommodations to be comfortable and outfitted with the luxury linens and little extras that you’d find on larger ships. In terms of service, expect an accommodating staff willing to cater to your every need.
The dining room of your sailing cruise will offer delicious meals, elegant cocktails and great service too -- as well as the nightly entertainment, excellent company and of course, the stunning views that you’d expect on any other cruise. On shore, you’ll often have the chance to get to know local people a little better, since your sailing cruise won’t have to stop in a large cruise port like other big ships.
Whether you’re aiming for a more personal experience, you’re an eco-tourist, or you just want a cruise that’s out of the ordinary, a sailing cruise could be for you!
