Rhine ignites river love affair

I've been a land-based traveller for most of my life. Motor coaches and cars have helped me explore everything from Italy's Tuscany region to Ireland's Rings of Kerry. But recently I discovered a love for river cruising.

Riverboat royalty

Friends, sea, united

Out of all those people on a ship, all those decks and all those cabins, the like-minded seem to be attracted to one another.

A little taste of the Orient

The thing I quickly learn about the Voyager of the Seas' port stops is that they would be better described as pit stops.

Small groups keep stress at bay

An intimate way to cruise coastal waters is on a yacht, motorised catamaran, or traditional wooden gulet to explore secluded bays and tiny islands.

Alaska lowdown

Because of the extreme climate, Alaska's cruise season is limited to May to September, though a few sailings stray into late April and early October. Most cruises are seven to 14 days long and they usually follow one of two main routes, through south-east Alaska's Inside Passage or to south-central Alaska, past glaciers.
