Creator's Key Takeaways
I was apprehensive too as on my last trip there it was really rough although this time as we arrived the wind suddenly died down the sea calmed and the sun came out
the history Landscapes glaciers volcanoes Penguins the culture in those big cities will stay with me for years and years and years so absolutely yes this was an amazing trip
the sea day experience is a key part of the trip now if you want a cruise to be entertained and lots of activities on sea days this is not what this region is about
