Hate Crowded Cruises? 6 Small Ship Getaways to Book Instead

The Wall Street Journal
March 23, 2023
By Ellie McGrath

These voyages keep the passenger lists small, the suites luxurious and the activities exclusive, from gliding to Galapagos to slicing through ice on the way to the North Pole. The Wall Street Journal features AdventureSmith Explorations among its list, along with many of our partner small ship cruise operators’ trips. See our Adventure Specialist Lauren Pilholski’s North Pole trip account from her Le Commandant Charcot ship review featured in the online spread. The article also appeared in the March 25, 2023 print edition as “Set Sail… on a Smaller Scale.”
