Marine Link Tours
Marine Link Tours – Check the website calendar and b e sure to check the line’s detailed Sailing Protocol. It is worth reading even if you are not planning to sail! Capacity is 12 in outside double cabins, five with two single beds and one with an upper and lower berth.
There is nothing else quite like the tiny, 135-foot Aurora Explorer for an off-beat British Columbia coastal cruise. The coastal freighter operates out of a landing ten miles north of Campbell River facing the Inside Passage that is halfway up Vancouver Island – for just 12 passengers and a crew of six. She’s basically of landing craft design with a ramp to take on freight and vehicles stored on an open forward deck, while crew and passengers are housed an aft three-deck superstructure.
The surrounding scenery is majestic British Columbia with a heavily indented coastline on one side and Vancouver Island on the other, plus lots of small islands dotted about the gulf. The route and time ashore is contingent on the cargo requirements. Picnics and barbecues are often arranged off the ship. The crew is friendly, and the other passengers are self-selecting for a truly — dare we say — quirky cruise.
The engine noise and vibration affect some passengers, especially for the first night or two, plus be advised about the commotion associated with daytime cargo handling. After all, this is primarily a working freight boat. That said, the limited accommodation fills up fast, so book a year ahead if you can. For a short voyage summary taken in August 2016, please find it at the end of the main review.
Aurora Explorer (most recently updated 2019; 12 passengers) cruises British Columbia waters & the Inside Passage
Passenger Profile
Adventurous free-thinkers from North America and the UK mostly.
Included Features
- All meals onboard
- Round-the-clock snacks, teas, juices & soft drinks
Itineraries
Aurora Explorer operates late March through the end of October from a base at Menzies Bay, Vancouver Island, located about 10 miles north of Campbell River into the Gulf of Georgia and deep into the long inlets off Johnstone-Queen Charlotte Straits largely serving locations that have no road access. Two different routings are offered. The cruises operate weekly and last five days.
The departure point — Menzies Bay, 7990 North Island Highway — is 165 miles north of Victoria, B.C. on Vancouver Island. The drive takes 3.5 hours, and regular bus service from Victoria operates to Campbell River as does daily air access from Vancouver. Use a taxi from there for the last 10 miles to the landing.

Sample Itinerary
The Broughton Island Archipelago Area route begins at Menzies Bay, traveling north and stopping at ports along the way, through Seymour Narrows, Discovery Passage, Johnstone Strait and Chatham Channel. Port calls depend on freight schedules, with plenty of opportunities to delve into coastal fjords and spot wildlife.
Freight permitting, the vessel can sail past Cascade Head’s 800-foot waterfall from granite cliffs, and upon occasion can sail to the remote Seymour Inlet System. On the return journey, there are a few stops at first nation villages, and Yorke Island historical military site.
Sailing aboard a tiny freight ship, a lifeline for many road-less communities, with just a handful of passengers and a very friendly crew makes an unusual experience.
When to Go?
The cruises operate weekly and last five days. The maritime weather will vary considerably but expect some fog, perhaps rain and lots of snow seen atop the higher peaks, except in midsummer.
Activities & Entertainment
Besides watching the cargo handling that often includes heavy equipment bound for remote camps, there is a chance to meet local people, see whales, seals, sea lions, porpoises and other wildlife, and learn about the history of the region. Passengers are welcomed in the pilothouse to have a chat about what is on your mind.
Gordon Turner, a past passenger has this to share, “While I was aboard Aurora Explorer , heading up Bute Inlet, I saw an eagle overhead, a bear walking close to the shore and a large sea creature (possibly a seal) almost alongside the vessel. And the three sightings were simultaneous.”
“Also, I recall that when the open cargo deck was a bit muddy, the captain put Aurora Explorer under a 90-degree cliff whose waterfall cleaned off the decks in a matter of moments. That’s something you do not see with, for instance, Oasis of the Seas .”

Some food will be freshly caught from the ship with lines cast for salmon, halibut and groundfish. Prawns are also on the menu, caught from the bow, while crab comes from the ship’s own trap. Otherwise, you can expect straightforward Canadian meals. Wine is served with dinner; there is no bar, so BYO. Sometimes they throw a BBQ on the back deck or a beach.
Aurora Explorer
This small working cargo freighter has space for up to 12 passengers, who are housed on three passenger decks at the aft of the ship. Two lounges, a dining room, and a small library collection (mostly BC coastal subjects) make up the public spaces, plus two outside levels of observation decks. Wi-Fi and cell phone access depend on the vessel’s position, but expect it to be very limited.
Accommodations are five outside twin-bedded cabins and one outside with upper and lower berths, all with windows that open. Passengers share four washrooms with toilet and two shower stalls, plus hair dryers. Fresh linens are provided along the journey. A washer/dryer is also available.
Along the Same Lines
Too quirky for much competition!
Special Notes
The engine noise and vibration affect some passengers, especially for the first night or two, plus be advised about the commotion associated with daytime cargo handling. After all, this is primarily a working freight boat.

Review of Hebrides Cruising Straight Out of Mallaig on the Fleur de Lys — UPDATE: Renamed Glen Rosa for Majestic Line
October 16, 2021
We want to go on this, very informative review and testimonial.
We are waiting for info from the company about the fare. No luck yet. We are very interested in this type of cruise. Can anyone give us a general idea of cost? We can’t wait to book for 2017 or 2018!
Hi Vikki, Yes, this is a great quirky cruise indeed, good choice! The company should be getting back to you shortly, they are a small operation, so it takes a bit of time. Their website shows 85% sold for 2017, so 2018 may offer a better chance of getting the dates you want. When you do get on board, we’d love if you could do a short “Reader Review” for us! The form is on our homepage. Thank you!

Our 135-foot landing craft transports freight as you enjoy rugged coastal scenery & abundant sea life.
Our chef will prepare first class meals while you experience the ambience of small group cruising and journey off the beaten track where no big cruise ship will ever go. With no more than 11 fellow passengers, your crew of six will take excellent care of you on your 5-night, 6-day voyage.
Listen as the crew works the VHF radio and navigates the ship by radar. Watch as heavy equipment rolls on board and see freight of all types discharged at the many stops along the way. Visit working logging camps, remote villages and other unique coastal destinations. Enjoy the rugged shoreline and the solitude of nature in a marine environment.
See numerous tidal rapids where the sea becomes a fast-flowing river that boils around the Aurora’s hull and flowing waterfalls that plunge into the ocean. Watch as schools of dolphin play in front of the vessel’s bow or bears and deer roam at the water’s edge.
Relish this unique opportunity to observe killer whales, seals, sea lions, bald eagles and a host of sea birds in their natural surroundings.
Pull up a deck chair and enjoy the sun as we sail to places such as Bute Inlet, Hernando Island, Hole-in-the-Wall, Yucalta Rapids, Waddington Harbour, Sullivan Bay, Kingcome Inlet, Deep Sea Bluff, Echo Bay, Broughton Archipelago, Yorke Island, Chatham Channel, Burial Cove and the Homathko Icefield.
Disembark on secluded beaches, visit remote communities and stroll old growth forests on paths walked more often by animal hoofs than human feet.
If the tide allows, drop your line or help our crew pull up Dungeness Crab and Spot Prawn traps.

Home » Prices and Trans-Siberian Tickets » Trans-Siberian Railway Prices
Ticket prices for the Trans-Siberian Railway also depend on the current ruble exchange rate.
Is the Trans-Siberian Railway expensive?
Before starting on your Trans-Siberian Railway adventure you naturally want to know what the entire trip will cost. Although this sounds like a simple question, it is pretty difficult to answer. The Trans-Siberian Railway price of travel depends on the following factors:
- Which travel class do I want to use? The price for a first class ticket is about three times the price of a 3rd class ticket
- Am I willing to buy the tickets myself and assume responsibility for the organisation of the trip?
- How many stopovers do I want to make? The more breaks, the higher the total price.
- What sort of accommodation do I want? Will it be a luxury hotel or will a hostel dormitory be sufficient?
- What tours and excursions would I like to go on?
- What is the current exchange rate for rubles?
Basically, everything from a luxury to a budget holiday is available. If you buy yourself a 3rd Class nonstop ticket at the counter, a few hundred Euros will cover the price. All you will experience is a week on the Trans-Siberian train and will see nothing of the cities on the way. There is, however, any amount of room for upward expansion. Everyone makes different choices about which aspects they are willing to spend money on. I personally prefer to save money on accommodation and railcar class, visit as many cities and do as many trips as possible. To enable better classification of your travel expenses I have contrasted two typical traveler types. In the third column you can calculate the total cost of your own journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Please keep in mind that these are only rough estimations and not exact prices.
The all-in costs seem fairly high at first. However, they cover everything and it is quite a long journey taking four weeks. Many people forget to consider that when looking at the list. We should also deduct the running costs for food and leisure at home. I think most visitors to this page will classify themselves somewhere between the two categories, that is around the € 2,000 – € 2,500 range. When comparing these prices with other travel packages, you get the impression that it is hardly worthwhile travelling individually on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Please keep in mind that most packages last no more than 14 days and you are herded like cattle through the most beautiful locations.
If you spend less time on the Trans-Siberian Railway you will, of course, pay less. I chose this particular travel length because I prefer not to do things by halves. If you fulfill your dream of travelling on the Trans-Siberian Railway, enjoy it and don’t rush things. But it’s up to you, of course. Try playing around with the form a bit to find the appropriate price for your trip.
