Luxurious small-ship cruises up the ante on opulence

oothing massage moments on deck… Wine lists that are the envy of any top restaurant… Afternoon teas… Sumptuous spas… White-glove restaurant service… Decadent 5-star cuisine… Free shore excursions… An attentive staff at your beck and call… The list goes on. Fine accommodations, great food and attentive service have long been the hallmarks of luxury cruising. These days, however, exclusive boutique cruise lines offer an experience that’s a step even further up the luxury ladder. Purposely built for the ultra-luxury cruise market, the smaller, more
intimate vessels of cruise lines like Oceania and the Yachts of Seabourn offer highly personalized service in a formal, rarified environment. “For the discerning traveller, these boutique ships are everything the luxury ships are and more,” says Josie Baker, Maritime Travel counsellor, Clocktower, Kingston, ON. “The level of personalized service is extraordinary – we’re talking sometimes one staff member per guest.” With itineraries to the most desirable locations – the smaller boutique ships can access out-of-the-way, exclusive ports that

Many of my longtime cruise clients are learning to treat themselves, especially on special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries,” says Josie. “And when you get down to it, higher-end cruises do offer great value for customers when you consider all the inclusions.”

River Cruises with a Twist

sk any of our cruise experts about the experience of river cruising and then watch their eyes light up. “Everything about it is extremely sensory,” says Helene Karabetian, manager Maritime Travel, Pointe Claire, QC. “From the languid pace of the boat as you glide through the waterways, to the extraordinary local cuisine and fine wines, to the personalized and leisurely shore excursions, it’s a literal feast for the senses.” With the increasing popularity of river
cruising, there’s a whole new travel trend emerging, according to Helene. “Themed river cruises are now becoming really popular,” she says. “And with so many to choose from – including themes like the Christmas Markets of Europe, art immersions, family focused adventures, culinary tours and garden getaways – this kind of vacation can be a great way to experience either your grand passion, or even something you’ve never considered before.”

Port Report
Itinerary: Eastern Caribbean PORT PICK: ST. THOMAS It’s all about beaches and shopping on the Eastern Caribbean island of St. Thomas, one of the world’s most-visited cruise ports. Add to this the conveniences of being a part of the United States – speaking English and using the American dollar – and this tropical retreat becomes even more accessible and appealing.
Would-be fashionistas and deal-diggers get their fix in Charlotte Amalie’s hip duty-free shopping zone. Meanwhile, those not into the shopping scene can head out of town to admire the famed heart-shaped beach at Magens Bay or take a scenic tram ride to a mountaintop.
