DESTINATION FOCUS DEFINES SMALL SHIP CRUISING
Sailing on a small cruise ship offers unique and enriching experiences, with wonderful opportunities to explore the very heart of a destination. Unlike large cruise ships, smaller, more intimate and expeditionary ships can easily slip into the most intriguing ports.
Immerse yourself in a voyage of discovery as you seek out hidden harbors and island retreats where big ships simply can’t go. Visit the world’s most enchanting cities, towns and villages while being surrounded by luxury and impeccable service.
Step ashore in fairy-tale towns and grand European cities along the scenic Danube, Rhine, Main, Rhone and Duoro rivers. Get up-close and personal with Alaska’s natural wonders. Or sail to the treasured lands of the Mediterranean, filled with colorful contrasts. In the holiday season, take in the heart-warming festivities of European Christmas Markets. There are so many grand-scale discoveries to make on a small ship.
Perhaps best of all, small ship cruises are focused on the destination and self-enrichment, both ashore and onboard. When ashore, guests have
unique and exclusive travel experiences. Sample epicurean delights with the local people; enjoy special excursions led by local English-speaking tour guides. On board ship, listen to historical
and cultural lectures
presented by experts in
their fields, and enjoy
performances put on
by the local community
who come onboard while the ship is in port. These kinds of special events bring to life the history and culture of the destination. What’s more, many ships stay in port longer, sometimes docking overnight for further destination exploration.
Another small ship plus is that it offers an ultra-luxury and intimate onboard experience. Guests can get better acquainted with the ship
and enjoy one-to-one crew-to-guest ratios,
and ultimately exceptional service and extra amenities. A smaller number of guests also affords more opportunities to truly get to know your fellow passengers, which can lead to lifelong friendships.
If small ship cruising appeals to you, talk to your AAA Northampton County travel agent to find out more about this wonderful way to see the world.

SMALL SHIP CRUISING
SMALL IS BIG
Smaller ships mean bigger experiences. Our small ships are big on individualized service, special touches and comfort, making you feel like a welcomed guest the moment you step aboard. Intimate spaces invite conversation or quiet contemplation as you like. Whether you’re inside your stateroom or out on deck, ocean views beckon with adventures yet to come. Because of the size of our ships, we’re not restricted to commercial routes or large ports. We dock in places where you can get lost in the moment and not in a crowd. At Tauck, small is big... and the best way to make your cruise so much more than you ever experienced.
Save up to $300 per person when booking an air inclusive journey through AAA and Tauck. Call 610-258-2371, click aaa.com or visit AAA Northampton County, 3914 Hecktown Road, Easton, PA 18045
