Spitsbergen / Specialist Cruising
What is 'Specialist Cruising'? Well, the first thing would probably have to be that the vessel is primarily a means of transportation. Yes, it has to be comfortable and enjoyable to spend time on, but this is all secondary to the sights and sounds you will see and experience from it.
A specialist cruise will hug the coastline/shore making frequent stops and offer constantly changing scenery. Land excursions will ensure that passengers are properly introduced to their destination and learn something of the history, culture and traditions associated with each port of call.
In short - informal, informative and, we think, infinitely more inviting.
