The Voyages To Antiquity Difference

A Voyage to Antiquity is a world away from the hustle and bustle of the large megaliners. It’s also exceptional value, with so much included in your cruise fare that costs extra elsewhere. As well as the friendliness and the more personal service of a smaller ship, you’ll also be able to access smaller ports, and sail along rivers and estuaries that would otherwise be off limits. Add to this the expert company of guest speakers and the unique experiences planned ashore at certain ports, and you’ll soon discover why so many experienced cruise passengers prefer the small-ship differences.
