25 Years of Big Adventure:

The award-winning UnCruise fleet takes passengers to an array of exciting destinations across the globe. Established in Alaska in 1996, the company was first known as American Safari Cruises. It grew from just one vessel to offering different destinations on varying boats, and another arm called InnerSea Discoveries was added to the company in 2009. In 2013, the two branches were officially combined and rebranded to create UnCruise Adventures. The company continued to grow and expand destinations offered.

Why does Solo Trekker 4 U love small ship cruises?

Small ship cruises are one of my personal favorite ways to travel to remote regions. I recommend a balance combining an independent week’s stay or land tour with a week on a cruise. The more remote the location the better!

1. Access to the road less traveled by: My most unusual small ship cruise was going upriver on the Brazilian Amazon. I have to confess upfront that a week with 14 strangers in a tiny boat was not exactly what I had expected. However, it worked well since a large luxury ship could not have made its way through the winding byways that make up the Amazon in the middle of the rainy season!  So to forge new territory on your vacation you have to think small. This  was even true as we went on shore: Our guide led the way with a large, gleaming machete. He chopped away at the rainforest underbrush to create a path ahead.
2. Companionship: As a solo traveler, it can seem awkward at times. However, the smaller the group, the easier it is to get acquainted and fit even as the only single traveler. With only 4-5 dinner tables, each night everyone tried out a different place to sit getting the chance to hear from their fellow travelers.
3. Option for a single cabin:  While my cabin was hardly a refuge,  I did look forward to my time alone at the end of the day. It is true that I was stuck with bunk beds so recommend solos check before they book to see what is available. On the top bunk I was too tall to sit up and read in bed without scraping my head on the ceiling. On the lower bunk once electricity cut off later at night, it was impossible to read or even see where I was.
