Arctic and Antarctic cruise on small ships
Sometimes, economies of scale work to your benefit, but not while taking a polar cruise to the Arctic or Antarctica. Smaller ships give a much more genuine trip with a true sense of adventure. Bigger ships are about as out of the place in the Antarctic as sun umbrellas and palm trees! If you are looking to get close to the natural surroundings and want to feel as one with nature, you will want the cozy environment and the accessibility that smaller ships provide. Smaller ships with ice-strengthened bows can navigate areas which bigger cruise ships can’t access. Smaller ships sacrifice none of the luxury of bigger cruise vessels. As a matter of fact, some are all-suite vessels and all cabins have windows from which to bask the view. Most of the ships have an open bridge policy so you can visit the centre of operations and see how they navigate the waters. The crew and captain are on hand to answer your queries. Travelling in smaller groups with guides definitely improves the trip. Pa
