Vacation experiences are better when you share them with someone. But let’s be honest, sometimes there can be a few too many someones around. Crowding the decks. Filling the dining room. Blocking the views. And that’s hardly getting “away”.
When you take a small ship adventure with Blount everything's different. You’re joined by fewer than a hundred people. And more often than not, they’re people just like you. Curious. Casual. Adventurous. They’re looking for something more personal than the big ships can offer. Something more than deck after deck of strangers.
Every part of your cruise is simply more personal. You’ll dine in a single sitting with an open seating plan, giving you the freedom to meet your fellow travelers. Want to go exploring in your own way? Just grab some snorkeling equipment, or sign up for kayaking or biking. It’s that simple.
With Blount, you’ll be cruising with a crew that shares your thirst for adventure. Which means the people behind the scenes become more than just smiling staff members. They’re experts on less traveled waterways. Your traveling companions. And your fellow explorers.
Simply put, small ship cruising is a more personal way to vacation. So, when you share a corner of the top deck at sunset, you’re sharing it with a friend, not just another stranger among thousands. When you need something for your cabin you ask Tina, not “housekeeping”.
After all, when you share the fun with a few new friends, instead of the big crowds, you make any vacation better.
