We at The Cruise People are in the fortunate position of being able to constantly update our information regarding new and exciting ocean going programmes. Some of these are not promoted in the "main stream". The ships are unusual, the itineraries are different, often taking you to smaller, more intimate ports. In many cases they offer unique experiences.

Included among the ships, you will find European Cabin Cruisers that you captain yourself. They offer an intimate excursion for two, or accommodate up to 10 passengers, allowing your friends or family join you, if you wish. European river cruises are also available, but not included in this page. For more information about the river cruise ships, please contact John in our office. He has first hand experience travelling upon some European rivers.

As for freighter voyages, they are constantly changing and we have a specialist in our office to handle freighter passage bookings. We have devoted several pages to these and do not feature them in our distinctive voyages area; with the exception of the Aranui 3. Fred in our office is your best option for discovering passenger freighter voyages. Below is a sample of unique ships, and unusual itineraries to whet your whistle!

Aranui 3, while she is a freighter, is different in so far as she carries many more passengers than a typical freight ship; for this reason Aranui 3 is included in the distinctive category.

For information regarding the programmes, please click on the ship's name presented in the table below. To book passage in one of the ships or to obtain a brochure, you may contact us by phone (416) 444-2410 (Toronto area) or 1 800 268-6523 (balance of North America). If you simply have some questions at this time, we are available to you. If you prefer, you may fill out the brochure request form here on our site,or email us your request. We will be happy to answer your inquiries and send you more information.
