Cabin / Stateroom

cabin and room very comfortable. Small shower but, such is life on a ship.

Ship tip

Very good overall experience. It's not one of the larger ships so, activities and amenities limited by comparison to larger ships. Not a big deal for us but, depending upon your entertainment/activity choices larger ships may offer more.

Recommend visiting Te Papa museum in Wellington. It’s free and just a very short walk from where the bus drops you off in town. A great morning or afternoon activity.
