RECOMMENDED

Yes

Also very good was the Expedition Director and his assistant. Several of the expedition team were excellent. Several could use some guidance on developing their presentations. The safety level using the zodiacs was excellent. I have never seen a captain more available on the ship and at EVERY zodiac departure and arrival back to the ship. Very much a leader by example. The ship is beautiful, and well designed. The theatre could use an upgrade. I truly enjoyed the option of less formal outdoor dining in the evening. Most importantly, I would again choose Ponant if the destination was interesting to me. This one was exceptional!
