Creator's Key Takeaways
I wanted to see if going ever smaller was even better, so I booked myself on an 11-night Windstar Star Pride “Lands of the Midnight Suns”.
The small ship for them unlocked something way more important so most guests seemed very well traveled and they wanted to see importantly new and out of the way places.
I found the evenings for me I found much more challenging and particularly as a solo traveler I realized that you needed to be really outgoing to integrate.

After loving recent cruises on 600 and 700 passenger ships, like Oceania Insignia, Azamara Quest and Seabourn Encore, I wanted to see if going ever smaller was even better, so I booked myself on an 11-night Windstar Star Pride “Lands of the Midnight Suns”. Now this ship only holds 312 passengers, and they claim to be the market leading small ship line and have both these yacht style engine-driven ships that I went on, but they also have sailing vessels as well.
