As a yacht cruise experience our cruises are a lot more focused on the wonderful 'off the beaten track' destinations we visit with much more time ashore to explore at your own pace, and less about life on board. That being said, life on board is great, with entertainment being more of the home-grown variety, with events such as a locally themed party night organised by the crew, as well as the beach or deck BBQ and of course the Captain's Dinner.
Please note that there are no dedicated health and fitness facilities onboard.
Aboard the Variety Cruises ships there are no recreational facilities for children and reservations for those under the age of eleven are not advised.
With carefully planned itineraries exploring each area in much more detail, we also ensure there is much more time ashore to discover and explore.
