SMALL SHIPS



Small can be beautiful, especially in the world of cruising. Carrying some 250 to 500 passengers, small ships are still fairly cozy and comfortable. Yet they offer hotel-style amenitiesbalconies, gyms, casinos, discos, perhaps even boutiques not often available on intimate ships. And you're more likely to have a chance to don your tux or gown.

Examples
