Review summary

Very culturally enlightening cruise. My husband and I like new experiences and of course meeting new people. We were able to do that and enjoy good wine and food at the same time.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
smooth and very quick.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining was fun, as we got to see different people and shared tables with others that we got to meet. The food was rotated often so that it wasn't too similar. Lots of different proteins, vegetables and fruit.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Lost the fitness instructor halfway through the cruise and did not get a replacement. The hot tubs never worked properly even though staff could fix them; it just didn't last.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The entertainment changed every night and sometimes last minute replacements would replace someone that was not able to make it. There was a wide variety.

Children's Programs

there were no children on board this cruise.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
very responsive and appeared to really care about any issues we may have had.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Staff were quick to pick up trash, clear tables and clean our rooms. It was very well maintained and clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The closet was a walk in. It was easy to hang up or put away our clothes once we got there and throughout the cruise.

Ship tip

This is one of the few cruise ships that is all inclusive. There is no charge for laundry services. Tips are taken care of and most excursions are also included.

Ports of call

San Antonio, Chile

4 out of 5
No, but the ride from our hotel to the ship was very interesting and the port was not crowded and we were able to get processed quickly.

Puerto Montt, Chile

4 out of 5
Interesting place to visit. We went horseback riding which was really nice and comfortable. We took the horses through a rainforest which was a brand new experience for me and my husband.

Puerto Chacabuco, Chile

4 out of 5
This was very interesting because we got to see volcanos that were in islands very close to the port. The excursion lasted a little longer than expected.

Laguna San Rafael, Chile

3 out of 5
We boarded a catamaran in order to get closer to see giant glaciers in a place that very few or no human's live. No food or drink for a 31/2 hour trip

Cruise Chilean Fjords Did not visit port

Punta Arenas, Chile

4 out of 5
We visited a rain forest that we hiked through to see a waterfall and later enjoy a local dance and snacks with local wine.

Cruise Cape Horn Did not visit port

Ushuaia, Tierra Del Fuego, Argentina

5 out of 5
We went horseback riding again but this time we went through a hiking trail that included streams, hiking trails and soft grass with very experienced guides that were very informative.

Stanley, Falkland Islands

3 out of 5
We went on a penguin safari that was extremely cold. The tender that brought us back to the ship got caught up in a wave that slammed the tender against the ship, getting many on board wet, which is not good when it is freezing weather.

Montevideo, Uruguay

3 out of 5
Very small variety of excursions, we went to see a Jewish synagogue. Learned a lot more about the Jewish religion than I had every known before.

Buenos Aires, Argentina

5 out of 5
Enjoyed all the sights in this town, but there could have been more if we had stayed another day; but we did not.

Rio Grande, Brazil

2 out of 5
There were no sidewalks or pavement for the walking tour we took into another rain forest. Slippery rocks and uneven ground kept us from really enjoying this town,

Porto Belo, Brazil

4 out of 5
This was a nice town to visit and the cable car took us to an amusement park that was very interesting. Great place to take pictures of the vegetation and high-rise buildings.

Santos (Sao Paulo), Brazil

4 out of 5
there was more to do in this town and after our excursion to view beautiful homes and beaches we were able to do some shopping in the town center.

Ilha Grande, Brazil

4 out of 5
We did a cultural walking tour in this port of call which had a great deal of detail in the historical buildings, as well as the museums, theatres and government buildings.

Buzios, Brazil

3 out of 5
The trolley that drove us around town was a modified truck that had seats for tourist to sit in the bed of the truck. By the end of the day, we were all sunburned and tired. Otherwise the trip would have been nice.

Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

5 out of 5
We went to see Christ the Redeemer, went shopping, visited a Favela and enjoyed a nice meal.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We continued on to another cruise and did not disembark the ship
