Sail Date: Mar 2015
Cabin: Neptune Deluxe Verandah Suite
This was the “14-day South America Passage” during the first and second weeks of March, 2015, on the MS Zaandam.
First, the up-side.
Holland America Line (HAL) delivered on its itinerary. We embarked in Valparaiso, Chile. We disembarked two weeks later in Buenos Aires having sailed around the Horn. There were two ports along the way where we were supposed to stop, but didn’t. The Captain probably made the right decisions in the interest of safety. One was weather-related. The other due to a forest fire and a lot of smoke.
Cabin Review
Neptune Deluxe Verandah Suite
Cabin SA
A little outdated. But everything worked. It was very clean. HAL permits smoking on the balconies. As a result, we were forced to stay inside a lot since the folks next door smoked cigars every day.
