I don’t find out about you however there have definitely been cruises in my expertise which have shocked me. You realize, just like the Windstar voyage just a few years in the past in Tahiti through which a set-up of three cyclones unexpectedly manuevered us on the trail to the in any other case undiscovered Marquesas Islands (nonetheless probably the most wonderful journeys of my life). It was an outlier cruise, for certain.
And but, right here’s the factor: within the spirit of journey, would you purposely set out on a cruise the place you didn’t know the place you had been going? Sure! Windstar’s Star Legend is internet hosting the road’s first-ever completely deliberate “thriller cruise,” beginning Saturday, April 19, and we’ll be onboard. All we find out about our voyage is that we’re crusing round-trip from Athens. Each different port we’re visiting within the area is a thriller to all of us who’ve booked this cruise. Sure, we selected it on objective, not realizing the place we’ll be calling. And sure, too: this week’s voyage is born out of that profitable Marquesas expertise.
I like this rationalization from a pal who’s a loyal Yacht Membership visitor: “I feel the Thriller Cruise is a terrific thought — solely actually potential when you have got a group of small-ship, and particularly, Windstar followers who’re assured within the product and know will probably be nice, irrespective of the place you go.”
And there’s this, too: I’m excited to reconnect with travelers-now-friends who shared our fabulously unplanned Marquesas’ expertise. And I look ahead to assembly new, like-minded vacationers who journey with the same spirit of journey.
Wherever we go, no matter we wind up doing (even shore excursions are vaguely purposeful, specializing in culinary/wine, recreation, and historic historical past with out telling us the place we’ll be), we are able to’t wait to share our adventures with you . We’ll be posting a weblog on daily basis all through the cruise and hope you’ll tune in for the newest (and please, add any questions or insights in our feedback part beneath) ….
