    ACTIVITIES

    Although the focus of our cruises is mainly on sightseeing and socializing, we do like to mix in a bit of frivolity as well. With that in mind, we’re planning a couple of themed parties during the cruise which may include a welcome party, a T-Dance, quiz shows. If you should choose to participate, great; if you’d rather just be a voyeur, that is totally fine as well.

    We will update you on the booked guest pages with any themes prior to your trip.

  • Prices start at $5,699 (USD) per person, depending on the available and selected category. For single occupancy, an additional fee will apply, also depending on the chosen category.
