South America Cruise Reviews

If you are interested in the environment, climate issues, animal survival and incredible scenery this is a cruise for you. The ship is small, 1400+ so we could get into small bays and into the fjords with ease.....

Suite à la première croisière de Miami à Santiago, cette 2e partie de Santiago à Buenos Aires fut aussi très agréable. Nous avons passé un excellent mois sur le Norwegian Sun.

I feel like i experienced so much over the course of 2 weeks! This was the first time I traveled in South America and it was one of the best ways to visit many places in a short time.

Really enjoyed being on the Zaandam. The chance to go to Antarctica is super special. Loved it!!

This was a wonderful vacation. Friends of ours went on the Princess Cruise last February but it did not go to Antarctica. That is why we went with Holland America this year. It is a once in a lifetime treat although we met one woman who went last year and loved it so much, she came back and did it again this year. The three penguin tours were great. I really liked Bueno Aires, a city of 16 million people but still manageable. Santiago was also nice, they have 8 million; but the absolute highlight was Antarctica, there is no place on earth like it. Alaska is to Antarctica as Niagara is to Iguazu Falls. There is simply no comparison. It should be an absolute must see on everyone’s bucket list. Very expensive but worth it.

We became very tired of the bus tours. I would take more taxis and fewer formal bus tours. They wast e so much time.

Many stops and great sea days really enjoyed the entire cruise highly recommend

great cruise!!! We really love seeing our first cities in South America and I can't wait to go back.

Wonderfull cruise. We appréciante our expérience on the S’un.

Food variety was okay but very seldom found it to be good quality.

FANTASTIC TRIP - Staff & crew go above & beyond to ensure you have fun! More than enough to see, eat or do in all categories. If you find fault, you better look at yourself first. ONLY ONE BIG ISSUE: Improved passenger behaviour (it’s a spitting, snorting cultural action) when it comes to hygiene that absolutely needs addressing.

We thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the cruise. Available excursions were good and most of the guides were excellent,

It was out of this world and will be in my mind forever.seeing places I have always wanted to go.

If possible, take your own flight to Ushiaia because the charter flight is so disorganized. Very few couples were seated together - We had one seat in row 3 and the other in row 29....this was not the exception, but the rule.

Have been on several cruises, including Azamara. The overall experience on the Pursuit was as nice as cruises on Quest and Journey. In talking with other guests, many had similar observations. I don't think this ship is suited for l voyages or ones with at sea days.

Regent is my favorite cruise line and I loved this cruise. It was nice to start and end in Miami but it was a little long at 24 days. I felt some small things about the service were a little”off”. Loved the lectures and learned a lot about a part of the world I knew little of. Love the small ship and our suite that was home for three weeks. Highly recommend this because it is like two Caribbean vacations as well as a cruise up the Amazon for about 1000 miles.

Great cruise to see the mountains, glaciers and South America towns. The weather was cloudy but still great views (Cruise dates were Nov 19-Dec 3, 2018)

Staff and Officers were very friendly. I was worried about being on a small ship for so long, but it was NOT a problem at all. The ship stability was also a non-issue - no more movement than other much larger ships. Do get involved with the Big O games as a means of meeting others, especially on longer cruises. There are NO Broadway style production shows, but what they did have was entertaining and enjoyable given the stage space limitations.

The Itinerary was good, but Zaandam wasn’t, never had cause to criticize a ship like this one, never been subjected to such controlling tactics as on this ship-will never go with Holland America again! Drinks packages two and a half times the price of ANY other cruise line, and the bars closed at 11.30pm on Zaandam. Disgusting!

The itinerary was great. On sea days informative talks were provided about the places you visit, cultures, stars, whales, etc. Do not buy the thermal suite package. It was not worth the price. Not maintained.
