Ecuador, Peru Chile - 10/2009
An intimate ship with all the standard luxuries of the larger ships.
The ship is more casual. There were no tuxes or suits on board. The rooms even on Deck 3 were very gracious in size and decor. One problem-temperature control on Deck 3 is an issue. Rooms cannot be cooled down sufficiently.
The staff was great and the expedition staff enthusiastic
Pros: Size, itineraries, staff
Cons: No pool, no secondary dining room, not much exterior space.
