Review summary

The South American cruise was amazing. Some of the places were interesting to view however one or two stops I would pass over (Punto Arenas, Ushuaia and Santiago Chile). The staff was friendly and accommodating. The only draw back is that not sufficient vegetarian choices especially when the dining room was closed for lunch. The scenic cruise is great panoramic view. We were well rested despite the itinerary stops.

Excellent staff and ship!

Too bad you didn't take the excursion to the penguins in Punto arenos....it was definitely a thumbs up.
