Review summary

Embarking in Rio was costly and very hot and delayed.  Multiple issues caused us to miss being in ports on planned days and even missing one port entirely, Falkland Islands.

Crown Princess was a good Princess Cruise experience as usual.

Ship tip

Cruising Glacier Alley was great, also seeing Amalia Glacier. We had calm waters around Cape Horn, but blustery weather going from Straits of Magellan to the Pacific Ocean.
