    Very extensive and interesting program. Catering very good with numerous, very friendly staff. Cabins large enough for the duration of the cruise. Very reasonably priced laundry service. Very pleasant that everything was included except for premium drinks. A very pleasant and reasonably priced expedition cruise.
