SOPHISTICATED

SAILING

Next summer will see the

arrival of the 100-passenger,

all-suite Silver Origin, which

promises to be ‘the most

elegant ship ever to sail the

Galápagos, and one of the

most environmentally friendly’.

It will have one certified

member of the expedition

team for every 10 passengers,

in addition to a total cruise

complement of around 100,

making it luxurious and

educational (silversea.com).

VOYAGE

À DEUX

Looking for something

a little more bijou for your

next cruise? Sail the tranquil

backwaters of the southern

Indian state of Kerala on

a converted rice barge, which

has just one double bedroom,

an open deck, dining salon

and a crew of three (two

captains and a cook). The

experience is utterly magical.

It costs £350 for two people

per night on a private basis

full board (coxandkings.co.uk).

STOP PRESS! Following the purchase of three ships, TUI will of fer river cruising for the first time from next summer. Visit tui.co.uk.
