Clipper’s Mission Statement
To provide discerning
travelers with a thoughtful way to see places of natural beauty and
cultural interest. To this end, we use small, intimate ships with access
to secluded waterways that bigger ships could never consider.
Given the right
conditions, travel can be a immensely satisfying, mind-expanding
endeavor. After a good trip, one returns home enriched with lasting
impressions of beautiful places and interesting people encountered.
Like many birds, our small
ships are migratory and follow the sun, northbound in the summer and
southbound in the winter, always ready for spontaneous discoveries — a
pod of whales, a school of dolphins, or a scenic highlight.
On board, our crews
provide a welcoming, unpretentious environment, leaving you free to set
your own pace. You may opt to explore on your own, join a shore tour, or
just relax on deck or in our smoke-free lounge.
Our aims are summed up in
our mission statement, shown above. We hope that after perusing our Web
pages that you will decide to join us.
