In the fall of 2026, a dance cruise will be held as the Mein Schiff 6 2026 West Africa “Highlights along the West African Coast” itinerary is set to depart. With destinations including Cape Town and port stops along Africa’s western coastline, plenty of dance opportunities will be available aboard Mein Schiff 6.

Lit enthusiasts will be able to hear readings and participate in workshops by authors of all genres, and will be able to purchase their books, have them signed, and engage in conversations. The reading cruises will offer a warm and enriching experience for those who enjoy traveling and reading at the same time.

The first reading cruise will be aboard the Mein Schiff 2 and will be around Iceland, which will allow guests to appreciate Iceland’s beautiful nature.
