We thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The Expedition Leaders were well-informed and eager to pass along their knowledge. Lectures were very interesting and good. Announcements were clear and timely. Trips off the ship were great except for the kayaking which was extremely short and as a result, uninteresting. The cabins were clean and up-to-date. Equipment was in good shape. Food was good, but not great. Overall, an great trip.
