The tour was informative and we had plenty of time to wander around the museum. The swim at Rheina was lovely and the food delicious.”

You have to bring your own beers as they only serve wine. The waves can be a bit choppy depending on the time and direction of the current. This is not like the Caribbean where the water is mostly calm on similar tours. Very enjoyable.”

“The experience was incredible and genuinely memorable. The onboard crew were excellent, attentive, and responsive to our needs.

It included pasta, salad, bread, and cheese, served family style with other passengers. Drinks were complimentary but needed to be requested directly from the crew. The biggest issue was time management, or more accurately, the lack of clarity around how long we had at each stop. We spent a lot of time at Rhenia, which was enjoyable, but…”
