I am extremely intrigued. A few weeks of mostly solitude wherein I can see a few interesting sights, meet a few interesting people, and the whole thing is extremely affordable? This sounds right up my alley. Now, to convince my wife and family…
- AnimalMuppet 11y agoI'm intrigued too. But at $120/day for a few weeks... that's a few thousand dollars. That's not in my vacation budget at the moment.
- akg_67 11y agoI am intrigued too but for different reasons - seeing the world from a different perspective. But if I was looking for mostly solitude, I will pick couple of weeks of camping in a national park or somewhere remote. Recently I did two weeks of camping in Glacier National Park MT. It was solitude and bliss, no cell service, no Internet, as primitive as I could handle.
- dshankar 11y agoI've been wanting to do this for years, but it's hardly "extremely affordable" – on average, it's anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 per person for a 2-4 week trip.
- Mr24601 11y agoCruises can be waaay cheaper than that. Six adults from my family recently went on a 9 day cruise that was really nice to the Bahamas, I think the whole thing was under $4000.
- dshankar 11y agoOn a freighter? I'd love to know more. Or one of those Caribbean leisure cruises? Those are cheap upfront - to get you in the door - relying on in-ship purchases (like alcohol & restaurants) to make the majority of their money.
