Small Adventure Cruises of 12-36 passengers generally:
- Include more off-boat activities (such as swimming, fishing and exploring) than the larger vessels do.
- Offer at least two off-ship expeditions each day.
- Can navigate the “mother ship” up shallow rivers to anchor directly under waterfalls and at iconic spots (rather than anchoring at the rivermouth and sending tenders upriver).
- Skippers can customise excursions to suit groups’ interests.
