Trip of a lifetime!
The crew and boat were amazing! The crew were always ready to help and made sure everything was ok. The guides were kind and tried to meet expectations that everyone had (everything is dependent on Mother Nature of course). The food on board was amazing! For the vegetarians there was always something different than the meat and fish. It was really nice that it wasn’t always just a veg version of meat and everyday something different!
