Travelers who want a true tall-ship voyage with luxury service and very few other guests.
Think twice if: Ships this small move more in rough seas, and fares are high.

What she's like
Quiet and personal. Small enough for little harbours big ships can't use. About 40 tons of ship per guest. As a rule of thumb, 40 or more feels roomy and under 30 feels busy.
'The on-board languages are German and English.' Programs, menus and announcements in both; German-owned line.
Our judgment, from $ (budget) to $$$$$ (ultra-luxury).
All drinks, alcoholic and non-alcoholic (premium drinks extra); gratuities (savings rate); Starlink Wi-Fi access in public areas and cabins (whether free not published).
Children welcome but no daycare or kids' entertainment.
Casual; Captain's Cocktail and Gala Dinner at start and end of voyage where elegant dress is recommended.
Where she sails in Europe
