Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

All service was wonderful. Presentation was excellent as were the buffets. Some of the choices in the main dining room could have been more diverse. Also, not all fish seemed fresh.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

There were not many onboard activities due to the type of expedition cruise. For a small ship, fitness center was modern and very adequate.

Entertainment

2 out of 5

Could have used something other than 2 piano players. Maybe one piano player in one bar and a DJ in the other bar to promote some after dinner dancing.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All staff and service was top notch.

Disembarkation

They should have told us that once we got off the ship they were not taking us directly to the airport. No one was prepared to be dropped off in town for over an hour, at 8:30 am. No shops were open yet and no one was dressed warmly enough. Many passengers ended up in coffee shops even though they had already eaten breakfast on the ship. We all understood the reasoning behind not taking everyone to the airport at once but it would have been nice to have been informed of the procedure for the morning. That being said, once at the airport the check in procedure and getting to the gate for the charter flight was very seamless.
