Adelaide, South Australia, 25 June 2013 – Unlock the Past announces Unlock the Past Cruises, an international program of history and genealogy cruises. This expanded cruise commitment follows on from the success of the first three Unlock the Past cruises, high interest in the fourth in February 2014 and a proposed mid 2015 cruise from the UK/Europe to the Baltic. Now there is more choice:
- more cruises to choose from – two to four a year
- more and varied itineraries – anywhere in the world, wherever there is enough interest
- more price levels to suit different budgets – starting from under $1000
- more varied programs – some full conference programs with many presenters, others much smaller
- some conference focused, others more destination/itinerary focused
The fourth cruise in February 2014 is booking strongly. Further cruises under consideration include:
- a British Isles discovery cruise in mid 2014
- a smaller regional cruise from an Australian port or Auckland – Sydney late 2014 or early 2015
- a major Baltic cruise from UK/Europe mid 2015
- a transatlantic cruise November 2015
- an Australia – New Zealand cruise early 2016
Unlock the Past cruises combine relaxing cruises with world class history & genealogy conferences. All major conference cruises feature an international team of presenters and a program with international appeal. Shorter cruises will also have leading presenters. Some cruises are more conference focused. Others more on the destination and places visited.
What a fantastic and wonderful experience it has been. Great speakers and a good variety of topics. I now know that I am on the right track with my research. I was travelling solo yet felt I was part of a warm and friendly group. Thank you. – Lauretta Nobes, 3rd cruise
Thank you … for your wonderful work in organising this cruise – we are now addicted to Cruising with Genealogy … you did a fantastic job … Congratulations. – Malcolm & Hazel Ford, 3rd cruise
