Short cruises are also an ex-
cellent opportunity for first-timers
who want to “‘test the waters’’
and are looking for good value as
well.

Short cruises visit a wide variety
of places.

Cruisers can savor the waters of

the Bahamas or the Caribbean,
eastern and western Mexico, Ber-
muda and Hawaii, or enjoy a
cruise on inland waterways such as
the Mississippi and Ohio rivers,
into America’s heartland.
“And for those with very little
time, there are even ‘‘cruises to
nowhere’? — one- and two-day
voyages sailing from and returning
to the same port with no stops in
between.

from two-week sailings to three-
month voyages around the globe,

When the time came to decide what product to advertise
in this special cruise feature, we thought long and hard, °
and decided to try to explain to our present and prospec-
tive clients why we at Whytecliff Travel are happy to
endorse Seabourn Cruise Line.

The obvious advantage of a 10,000 ton ship, with only

200 passengers on board, is the greater versatility of the

itineraries, reaching areas where bigger ships have to

bus their passengers in. The service provided by the 140

crew is superb. The smallest suite (all outside) is 277

sq.ft. and decorated to the best of tastes. All suites have
a sitting-area.

The dining is at its finest with visiting celebrity chefs,
and you dine when and with whom you please.

All Seabourn sailings are offered CANADIAN AT
PAR.

Economy air fare is already included in your cruise fare
from Vancouver to the Orient, and should you prefer
business or first class across the Pacific, Seabourn has
preferential rates to offer you. One night’s deluxe hotel
is also included the night before the cruise.

Discerning single travellers are also taken into consider-
ation with a 10% surcharge for single occupancy in a
Type A suite. Not too great a price to pay. for the luxury
of not having to share.

If you are looking for the extraordinary ask us about the
November sailing of the Seabourn Spirit from Israel to
Singapore via India — or the Hong Kong to Singapore
via Vietnam in February or March — or Bali to the
Barrier Reef.
