Opportunities for learning are at the heart of these wonderful Caribbean Educational Cruises, for which Caribpro has a very special offer for our readers.
We offer interactive lectures, workshops, and pre-port briefings led by college professors and other experts.
Our lectures provide travellers with the opportunity for personal growth and discovery through examining the history, culture, indigenous people, literature, music, geology, biology, and current issues of the regions through which we cruise.
Opportunities for additional learning is provided through community college sessions led by fellow shipmates plus an 8,000-volume library and a computer lab with free internet access for further self-study. A broad selection of optional Field Programs will allow you to go ashore for first-hand discovery and exploration in every port.
