Creator's Key Takeaways

we love the size of the ship it's absolutely perfect at the most it has 196 passengers

the bathroom was this is an expedition ship so you walk in you have this huge bathroom and then it has this huge shower

the crew is great I think every Cruise Line every cruise ship I've been on the crew have been fantastic

the food was generally decent but I think what the problem was is the regions that they were trying to highlight just wasn't to our pallet

Creator's Tips & Advice

Request burgers from the main dining room as they are not on the menu.
Use the coffee maker in the room for morning coffee instead of going to Paul's Pantry.
Plan for limited drawer space in the room and use your suitcase for folded clothes.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Small ship size might feel limitingThe small size allows for more interaction and a boutique hotel feel, which is enjoyable.
Limited dining optionsThere is only one main dining room, but the food is generally decent and Paul's Pantry offers light fare.
