Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Extended balcony was very nice. But the location was right by service door which was constantly banged in the morning. Hard to get a sound sleep.

Ship tip

There’s no Poolside movie screen. So no late night movies.

Cartagena, Colombia

5 out of 5
Nice to see the locals in their area. I know the people are poor, but it did seem that the wanted to exploit the tourist. Emeralds that are mined there are actually cheaper at home.

Santa Marta, Colombia

Again poor natives, but seized the opportunity to exploit the tourist. Tourist beware!
