Review summary

Terrific itinerary with wonderful scenery through Chilean fjords and around Cape Horn. Embarkation and disembarkation points (Santiago/Valparaiso and Buenos Aires) offered excellent options to explore on our own before and after the cruise. Zaandam is an older, smaller ship (1400 passengers) — just big enough to offer several entertainment and dining venues but small enough to navigate challenging itineraries and not seem like a city at sea. Crew and staff are courteous and very good at their various specialized duties. We found the old ship to be well maintained and clean, more interesting for not being the latest seaborn gimmick; the crew was unfailingly polite, the dining options much better than expected for a ship at sea.
