Cruise Masters creates family vacations so you can connect with your kids and do things they enjoy while still having plenty of time to pursue your own interests.

Below is a sample listing of some of the family vacations we can create for you:

• Safaris. See Africa's Big Five - lions, leopards, cape buffalo, elephant and rhino - up close and personal, far from the crowds. You will stay in South Africa's finest game camps in luxurious 'chalets', each with private bathrooms. Each full day you are at a game camp you will take two game drives with seating in open safari vehicles. And you will enjoy superb pan-African cuisine, complimentary drinks and simple laundry service. Transportation between camps is by scenic flights. Most of our guests tell us this is their finest travel experience ever!

• Small-ship cruises. Some of the most glorious places on earth can only be accessed by sea. Worth a visit for their jaw-dropping scenery alone, small ships take you to fabled coastlines and islands beyond the reach of large cruise ships. Each day offers opportunities to explore seaside cliffs, secluded beaches or villages that seem untouched by time or civilization.

• Bicycling and walking tours. Slowing down to see the world doesn't mean rushing from one place to the next, it means flexibility. It means stopping to smell the roses (or tasting the wine), browsing the markets, chatting with the locals, absorbing the views and checking out the sights. On foot or bicycle (the support van is never far off) you have the chance to savor every moment. Follow our detailed route suggestions or follow your curiosity to places most travelers don't experience. Contact Cruise Masters travel consultants for more information.

• Whitewater rafting. Your life deserves to be as peaceful and fulfilling or as exciting and stimulating as you've always imagined it should be! Cruise Masters owns an outfitting company in Moab, Utah that specializes in Canyonlands adventures. We offer everything from whitewater rafting on the Colorado River to 4x4 and hiking tours; jet boat tours and horseback rides or a custom-designed combination of activities that interest you most.

• Multi-sport trips. Enjoy the best of spectacular regions by adding your favorite activity to your adventure with a hot-air balloon ride, a kayak or rafting excursion, a camel trek or gain admission to an exclusive, world-renowned golf course. Cruise Masters can help you plan the sport trip of your dreams.
