Small-ship cruises offer a more personal, flexible experience than big liners. On most of our cruises, vessels carry no more than 40 guests, so the crew quickly gets to know you, provides attentive service, and adapts to your preferences. These smaller ships can dock in narrow coves and medieval harbors, letting you explore charming towns without crowds or waiting in long lines. We also offer a selection of larger, luxury ships—like Emerald Azzurra, L’Austral, and Star Clipper—with between 50 and 150 cabins. These vessels combine upscale amenities with a boutique atmosphere, allowing you to enjoy more space and enhanced service while still benefiting from the flexibility and intimacy of smaller ships. In short, small-ship cruising gives you genuine hospitality, easy access to hidden ports, and meaningful cultural experiences. Our luxury yachts offer that same warmth, plus extra comfort and style.
