Took a wheelhouse tour this morning. The ship is actually controlled by a joystick rather the a wheel. Guests were allowed to ask the captain questions. They mainly asked about safety. Regulations are strict and all systems have multiple back ups. Extensive mapping and a radar system are all battery operated so that they are not impacted by any electrical failure.
After the tour, we had another great meal and then headed into Regensburg for a city tour. The city is a UNESCO site with many remnants of old Roman walls as well as dozens of intact medieval merchant homes that are still used today.
We returned from the tour chilled from the cold wind and headed straight for the hot tub. The kids loved a chance to splash around in the warm water and then we bundled them into the Amacello bathrobes and headed back to the room.
After dinner, they had a fabulous Bavarian duo onboard. The kids bounced to the polka music and Matthew was particularly enamored by the Bavarian flag that showed two lions that they had brought along. Ryan was volunteered to play the spoons and he did an incredibly good job, complete with a stylish Bavarian hat.
The info on the website was laid out very well. I did some comparisons with other tours and found Adventure Life met a lot of what I wanted in an Antarctica trip at the cheapest price. Requested a quote on Claudia contacted me right away. She answered a lot of questions the I had via email even though she offered to discuss via phone call. I’m more of an email person so appreciated how she accommodated that and answered all my questions. And when I was ready to book, she quickly got the ball rolling with getting our spots reserved on the trip my friend and I wanted. Thanks again, Claudia!

(1) great information on the website and throughout all the "materials." (2) Jane Packer is great: knowledgeable, responsive, takes a personal interest and tone, seems to care about the customer as a person not a sale.

For our first trip to Costa Rica, Adventure Life designed a tour that meets the interests, ecological and adventure, of our party; but also takes into account our physical limitations sine we are all septuagenarian. We are looking forward to the trip.
