MEDITERRANEAN CRUISES
A charming ship on which 250 or so passengers travel in congenial comfort, the "Orpheus" cruises the Mediterranean and Aegean , the Red Sea and the Black Sea to seek out the legacies of the world's greatest civilisations. Guest lecturers give engrossing talks to the passengers to set the scene, whilst excellent local guides identify the detail as you explore on land.
Coming to know more about the lives and legends of the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Moors or Ottomans, is a memorable experience. Very enjoyable, too, for the "Orpheus" has a pool and an encircling promenade deck in addition to spacious lounges, bars and restful cabins. Our imaginative selection of eight eighteen-day cruises offers those with an enquiring mind an irresistible holiday that's absorbingly different from any perhaps taken before.

SPICE ISLAND CRUISES
The Indonesian Islands are breathtakingly beautiful and richly endowed with wildlife. On an expedition cruise with only 40 other passengers, you will weave your way amongst the islands and travel ashore by small boats to discover remote cultures and exotic creatures such as the Komodo Dragon. Our luxurious mini cruisers are fully equipped so that you can snorkel or dive to see the tropical sea-life, then swim or water-ski just for sheer pleasure.

CRUISING IN THE GREEK ISLANDS
Greek Islands vary from the large, with plenty of holiday facilities such as bars, restaurants, discos and night-clubs, to the small, simple and unsophisticated, where life has a slower pace and the taverna is the centre of social life.
Our selection ranges from Crete - almost a country in itself - through Corfu and Rhodes, both with plenty of amenities for a lively holiday, to tiny islands like Symi, leros and Chios, where visitors get closer to the life and pleasures of the local people, or Kos in the Dodecanese, where the nightlife is non-stop! Among them you will be able to find the one that comes nearest to your idea of the perfect Greek Island.
