Hosted by an expert storyteller, each voyage reveals hidden gems and untold narratives that make each destination unique. Our Small Ship Cruises offer an unparalleled level of service and attention to detail that redefines the very essence of sea-based travel, offering a journey that is as enlightening as it is unforgettable
The Art of Storytelling
Long before the written word, our ancestors gathered around fires to share tales of survival, community and adventure. The storyteller, chosen for their oral prowess, wove narratives passed down through centuries, fostering companionship and community. At Aurora Expeditions, we believe that every day travelled creates a story. On our Small Ship Cruises, your journey is hosted by a master storyteller.
Selected for their deep knowledge, expert storytelling skills, and unwavering passion for the theme of their specific voyage, our hosts inspire exploration and cultural immersion. Whether a professor, archaeologist, or curator, their infectious enthusiasm for their chosen speciality is complemented by our network of local experts who guide our handcrafted onshore experiences. From the British Royal family to the D Day operations, Sicilian feuds to Croatian coastal life, our storytellers add a personal dimension to our voyages, instilling a deep fascination in each day travelled. Join them to craft your own story, one that will endure for eternity.
