Yea cruises are trashy and I'm part of the anti-cruise crowd. That said I just found a cruise that goes from Cape Town or Walvis Bay to St. Helena island (where Napoleon was imprisoned and died) and Ascension Island. This actually looks like an interesting cruise.

Would this cruise be considered OT trashy?

Is it on the RMS St. Helena?

I've been trying to plan a trip to St. Helena. Fly to Ascension Island on a RAF plane and take the RMS St. Helena to St. Helena and Capetown, SA.

Both islands are so beautiful and isolated.

I didn't see that one on the list I found. The MV Queen Victoria is on the list but sounds too posh. "Passengers who don't like to dress up will feel out of place".

I'll see what I can find on the St. Helena though. Thanks.

Sounds like Cunard. They get real fancy in the evenings.

The RMS St. Helena is a half cargo/half cruise ship.

This ship operates the same route you're looking at year round. Cunard just copied it.

Cruises will end in 2016. That looks really unique. I'm going to save that page and do some research.

Thanks for the link.

I was being sarcastic. Did you even look at the cruises we're talking about? They're anything but trashy.
