With small vessels and a focus on the natural world, UnCruise allows you to connect more deeply with your destination — and reach corners larger ships can’t go. Outdoor adventures, like kayaking and paddleboarding, immerse you in the seascapes you see from deck, while carefully sourced cuisine and expert-led experiences bring you closer to local culture. UnCruise’s vessels are comfortable and down to earth — their quiet luxury lies in the highly personal service you receive throughout your journey.
I like to think of the UnCruise experience as an expedition with a good dose of creature comforts. You’ll go to far-flung places unreachable by land, like the remote bays of Alaska or a humpback-whale hotspot in Hawaii, but you can also stretch out with morning yoga on deck or peruse the onboard book library in your downtime. I also admire UnCruise’s commitment to sustainability, helping to protect the ecosystems you visit.
Trip ideas featuring UnCruise
Our trip ideas offer a glimpse into what you might experience by pairing an UnCruise voyage with time to explore further on land. Perhaps you’d like to embark on a culinary adventure through Seattle before setting off into the icy waters of Alaska. Or maybe you’d prefer a balmier trip, combining Californian sun with Hawaii’s tropical seascapes?
UnCruise’s ships
The biggest draw of UnCruise’s vessels is their size — small enough to take you to places larger ships can’t go, but with enough space to allow you to unwind in your own quiet corner. On board, bells and whistles come in the form of kayaks, inflatable skiffs, and hydrophones so you can make the most of your surroundings (though some have a hot tub on deck, too).

Safari Explorer
Carrying just 36 passengers and with a focus on bringing you closer to nature, the Safari Explorer blends laidback luxury with action-packed itineraries. On voyages exploring the Hawaiian islands or arctic Alaska, you’ll come face to face with lesser-seen landscapes and wildlife from skiffs and kayaks, or on hikes across glaciers or volcanoes.
