Travelers looking for that extra something special to spark their interest have more theme cruises to choose from in 2014/2015 with Un-Cruise Adventures’ current lineup on its small ship cruises in Alaska, Mexico’s Sea of Cortés, Columbia & Snake Rivers and coastal Washington. Planned themes include photography, marine biology, Lewis & Clark, Washington craft beer, Washington wine, and music/entertainment.
“Theme cruises still include our promised program of activities, but we add in these extra elements for those that are interested,” said Captain Dan Blanchard, CEO. “With our small groups, you’ll have plenty of chances for one-on-one interactions with our guest hosts during the week.”
