We aren’t a cruise, and all that connotes. We don’t have air conditioned buses shuttling guests from site to site. We don’t have 24-hour buffets. We don’t require a rigorous check-in/check-out process for getting on and off the boat. We don’t up-charge at every possible moment. We’re a Voyage. Small. Intimate. Boutique.
I love travel that challenges me physically. I am in no way a fitness fanatic, but there’s something exhilarating about proving to yourself that you can accomplish with your body what your mind set out to. Surf camp, yoga retreats, trekking excursions, I’ve done them all. I’m also a control freak and could never understand why so many of the adventures I signed up for were one-size-fits-all. Not everyone is one size!
One of my favorite parts of the Blue Voyage is the Turkish dance lesson we do onboard. The crew is really committed to helping us all learn. And the joy of dance and laughter and being free and silly is contagious. Even those guests who opt out at the beginning are tying on sequenced scarves and kicking their legs by the end. And if you’re really lucky, Rebekah may join us.
