Had only been on a 3-day cruise years ago so this was a big cup hangs for me. Went with 5 girlfriends and we had a wonderful time. I want to mention we arrived in Santiago a day early and used that time to tour Santiago. The next day we toured in route to Valparaiso and in that city itself too as we did not board until after 3 pm. I highly recommend our guide and his team,

This set up was well thought through as it utilized available space very well. We were two women with lots of stuff...and it all fit, we did no need to leave anything out. The shower was quite adequate and our cabin men kept all things very clean. The balcony was pleasant especially at sea and when we went through the Panama Canal we. Enjoyed sitting there. We were on the starboard side.
