Scenic Ocean Scenic Eclipse Cruise Reviews for River to Antarctica

My recent voyage of discovery to Antarctica, South Georgia, and Falkland Islands on Eclipse 1 with my husband (John) is nothing but praise. We were welcomed on board by the Captain. Followed through into the lounge area where we met the Restaurant Manager who remembered us from a previous cruise. We were introduced to many crew.

They appeared to genuinely love their jobs and that was demonstrated time and time again. Captain and staff on the bridge always welcoming and engaging. The welcome. Non existent and very poor. Considering the world is ...

Unbelievably poor communication from start to finish. Even our travel agent got so terribly frustrated with either poor or wrong information.
