Tauck Small Ship Cruises

The difference in Tauck’s small ship cruising lies in the choreography – the combination of all-inclusive cruising with unparalled exploration and uncommon access on land. 

Onboard Our Small Ships

Tauck Small Ship Cruising combines the rewards of sailing aboard a private yacht and comfortable expeditionary ships with Tauck’s signature all-included sightseeing and destination expertise ashore. Handpicked for each destination and designed to access ports the bigger vessels can’t, our small ships set sail on voyages of discovery from the Aegean to the Baltics, and from Asia to Antarctica.

For one upfront price, you’ll enjoy world-class hotels, exquisite meals and drinks, jaw-dropping excursions, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences on distinctively inclusive cruises. This is a truly seamless journey, where all the details seem to magically fall into place. This is all-inclusive, for those who refuse to settle for the ordinary.
