Lisbon , Portugal
The O . A . T . Small Ship Advantage
WHAT SETS US APART ?
ACCESS PORTS LARGER SHIPS CAN ’ T REACH
Our small ships can navigate narrow passageways and off-the-beaten-path ports larger ships can ’ t reach , allowing you to experience authentic ways of life in your destination . On some itineraries , we visit remote ports that are only accessible by Zodiac
craft or tender . Transferring to these vessels will require agility , but if you ’ re physically suited , it ’ s a truly adventurous experience .
CULTURAL CONNECTIONS
Our itineraries are designed to bring local culture to life — from sharing meals with families during Home-Hosted Visits and spending A Day in the Life of everyday people , to discussing modern-day Controversial Topics with local experts and visiting Grand Circle Foundation sites such as schools , women ’ s co-ops , and more .
PERSONALIZE YOUR EXPERIENCE
Make your trip your own ; 87 % of our travelers tailor their journeys by adding trip extensions , customizing their flights , arriving early , combining adventures , and stopping over in an iconic destination .
