Additional details

Sail Date: Feb 2019
Cabin: Balcony

We flew from LA to Buenos Aires 12 hours direct, arriving at airport 7:20 am, tired and long line at immigration (1.5 hours),

Anticipating check-in around 11 am, lunch at noon, nap right after; but it did not turn out that way

Embarkation: Major delay by Princess arriving after 2 pm, check-in 5:30 pm. Main reason: few passengers without proper documents having issues with Argentina immigration, delay led to late queuing to the port.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin BB

Generally clean and good service from house keeper.

It's a shame he did not try to accommodate cleaning the room while we were away, even after we told him and tipped him

Nice & bigger TV in newer ships, menu is friendly. not like older TVs in older ships (before 2013)

Bed sagged a bit me (my weight 130 lbs), no firm pillows available!

Port Reviews

Stanley

Lucky to see 3 kinds of penguins (king, gentoo magellan, rockhopper already left in late February)

Ushuaia (Tierra del Fuego)

Nice history but with drizzle all day

Puerto Montt

Frutillar German Village is quiet beautiful small town

Lima

Bad traffic to go anywhere

Puntarenas (Puerto Caldera)

Boat captain fed big crocodiles in two locations, excitement and suspense

San Juan del Sur

Been here, not interested going far, only shopping at port
