I am looking for something different in a cruise line rather than the packaged "luxury experience" all the biggies like Princess, Celebrity, RCCL, Carnival etc. try to provide....not afraid to try different like Costa, Crown, Royal Olympic even something very inexpensive like Premier or Commodore....my wife and I are mid forties, like to have a good time (but like to remember everything we did )..not afraid of adventure and would roll with the punches and tend to make the best of everything. Any advice for 5-10 day Caribbean Adventure on the relatively cheap? We did Sitmar on a 10 day deep carribean a long time ago on the Fairwind (now Albatross?)...best cruise ever...and have taken half a dozen since including the Zenith thru the Canal. Any help is appreciated.thanks,tom
I think next year we are gong to try a Wind Jammer Cruise. They go to alot of small, exotic ports that are not accessable to the large cruise ships.
They are very informal and look like fun.
Has anyone been on one. My guess is that you really feel the ocean in those small sailing vessels.

How about a Transatlantic trip on the QE2 NY to Southampton (or vice versa)? There are some bargins available on the lower cabin grades. Then there is Europe - such as the Baltic or Norwegian iteniaries. A number of smaller, 'classic' ships such as Fred Olsen's 'Black Watch' offer some excellent deals.
Lets not forget Alaska and prehaps the ultimate adventure, Antartica, on the Marco Polo - although the latter is far from cheap!
Finaly, there are the river cruises - the Nile or maybe the Russia Waterways, Moscow to St.Petersberg. You are only limited by your imagination and bank balance!
Enjoy.
