The difference in Tauck's small ship cruising lies in the choreography of the total cruise experience – the combination of personalized cruising with cultural land exploration. How you spend your days ashore – where you go, what you do, who you meet – that's the Tauck difference. From the moment you step ashore, our 85 years of expertise on land ensures that every moment of your shore excursions (all included in the price) count!
Smaller ships hold fewer passengers, which means more personal attention from the captain and the crew – you'll find the on-board atmosphere to be both club-like and comfortable. The pace is more relaxed, the conversations are richer, and the day-to-day experiences are shared with like-minded travelers. Small ship cruising rewards guests with everlasting connections to people and places that makes a Tauck cruise vacation a transformational experience that rekindles your love of travel.
From Latin America to Europe, explore hidden harbors, secluded islands, and exclusive ports of call; small ship cruising focuses on cultural exploration and natural history in must-see destinations or unusual locales that are off-the-beaten track. You’ll cruise with Tauck Directors and destination experts – naturalists, historians, ornithologists, or other specialists – who enhance your experience both on and off the ship. And with all shore excursions included, you’ll enjoy truly inclusive value that is virtually unequaled!
Time – something every traveler wishes they had more of on a vacation…
