All zodiac exploration is included in the cost of the cruise. Cabins are simple, but efficient. All cabins are outside, have individually controlled air-conditioning and heating, two lower beds, and a private bath with shower. Some cabins open onto the promenade rather than to a corridor. Some have pullmans and can accommodate a third person.
Many cabins feature a large picture window.
Cabins have a radio for announcements and music, but no tv or phone. Juices and iced tea are available all day and evening in the lounge. There is American cuisine with regional specialties. Low-fat and special diets can be accommodated with advance notice. Entree choices always include a vegetarian selection, and, of course, there are the chocolate chip cookies.
