Captain Perrin's announcements and explanations were great and the itinerary was good.,

I was disappointed that we did not actually go around the Horn like the brochure suggests. Really, we went under Cape Horn from east to west, and then turned around and went back the way we came from. I thought rounding Cape Horn meant going around Cape Horn from west to east since we started in Santiago in the west and ended in the east in Buenos Aries.

The ship was very stable, even in 54 knot winds. The coldest we had was about 6C. But of course the wind made it seem colder.

Cabin Review

Balcony

A624 is a nice balcony room. But it is across from a food freight elevator that sevices the Horizons Dining room. From about 3 am. food trolleys were slammed around, into and out of the elevator. I was repeatedly woken up and had to resort to wearing earplugs.
