You often associate a cruise with champagne, a waltz around the deck, hot sunshine, seagulls, dolphins, a captain, the Love Boat', a lot of sea-food and a large swimming pool even though there is so much water all around you. You have a world of experiences on the common cruise say around the Caribbean; tropical weather, loud shirts on aged men, maybe a whirlwind romance, and golf. Yes golf you may even find a driving range to lose the husband on.

You will find nightclubs, bars, luxury cabins to sleep away all that sea air and sometimes if you are like me sea sickness!

You find yourself bumping into people who think you are in a rock band, ok this may not be true if you are in your 70's or maybe you have been asked if you are in the Rolling Stones' who am I to say?

The luxury and experience of that cruise is destined to live with you forever.

I'm going to throw you off the current track and tell you about a world of different experiences that you cannot get when you are on the decks of a ship in the Caribbean or any other tropical destination. Simply because it is like being anchored to the ship apart from a quick shopping excursion or tour with some representative that you can't understand through the rush of words and gasps of bewilderment from your cruise counterparts. You know it is true don't, look at me like that!

Trade the seagulls, dolphins, a captain, the Love Boat', a lot of sea-food and a large swimming pool, loud shirts on aged men and golf for; more seagulls, seals, killer whales, the captain of experienced adventure (almost Jack Sparrow) and maybe a fishing rod.

All this with the luxury of the Caribbean Cruise and you get the uncruise' a maritime experience no-one should miss if you are into seafaring adventure.

Ice breakers of the ocean and sea's are an amazing experience, filling you with emotion with every crunch and crack of the ice. Something you cannot experience in the warmer climates of the tropics.

Feel the wind in your hair, trade that loud shirt for Gore-Tex', and forget shopping expeditions into visitor packed resorts and take in more refreshing sea adventures of Antarctica.

It is an experience a million words will never fulfill only the picture on your camera and the memories of an expedition that you'll never forget.

Jaw dropping scenery is in every inch of one these uncruise's which will bring home truly speechless moments. Along with memories you will wish to experience again and again, which you are able to experience on a multitude
