Not just for Michael Palin or Phileas Fogg, passenger-carrying freighters are still a great way to travel the world’s oceans. Automation and computer technology have reduced the size of crews, opening up more cabins for use by passengers. And the additional revenue is highly valued by the freighter companies. They offer numerous sailings each monthincluding lengthy (30-day-and-longer) itineraries to exotic ports of the world.
Maximum of 12 passengers taken aboard each ship and prices are very affordable. Plus you get the run of the ship, you dine with the officers, and wander about through long, lazy days, perhaps writing that novel you always had within you.
