Review summary

We felt we had very little from the naturalists on board, other than driving the zodiacs. We expected more presentations and more time spent with guests. Our expedition leader was not really interested in the guests expectations, he was a disappointment.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

The preparation-information from the cruise was very poor. We did not get any information on the plans for embarking.
