Venture Further With An APT Small Ship Cruise
Small ship expedition cruising is all about venturing further, seeing more, and doing more, but also enjoying great food, wine and a little pampering along the way. You’ll stay close to the coastline, which means there will be no long days spent at sea and more time spent exploring. Rise each morning to a new adventure – a remote island to explore or a sprawling reef to discover. In the evening, kick back on board with your favourite drink and a long, decadent meal.
Your friendly expedition team will be there to ensure your safety, comfort and enjoyment at all time
With inflatable Zodiac vessels on board you'll always be close to the action
Thanks to your ship's small size, you can access remote and hard-to-reach destinations
