Small luxury cruises are offering big discounts
Large cruise lines such as Princess and Royal Caribbean are not the only companies offering deals this summer. In the upcoming season, Sikumi is cutting prices for all cruise packages by 20 to 40 percent, making it more affordable for people who generally shy away from small ship cruises because of the expense compared to that of larger cruise ships.
Small ship cruising offers benefits such as unparalleled access and maneuverability in comparison with larger ships and provides a much more personal experience, with guests and crew getting to know one another on a first name basis. Guests are also able to set the pace based on what they want out of their vacation, with choices such as kayaking around icebergs, hiking, wildlife viewing, or simply relaxing onboard.
The Sikumi is a small cruise ship with four staterooms and the capacity to carry about 8 to 12 guests through Alaska’s Inside Passage. Based out of Petersburg, Alaska, in summer, M.V. Sikumi has been running under that name for the last eight years, giving cruise-goers the rare opportunity to appreciate Alaska’s wilderness from a luxurious setting.
At a time when many Americans feel uncertain about their economic future, Sikumi is lowering prices of all-inclusive cruise packages, making it more accessible to those who wish to take a vacation this summer and experience all a small ship cruise has to offer.
