MS Nordlys has its own onboard Expedition Team, which functions as a university at sea. The team offers interesting lectures, presentations, and activities both inside the ship and out on the sun deck, making the journey exciting and educational. The topics covered depend on the season and the waters we sail in. The Expedition Team hosts a daily program of lectures, presentations, and evening gatherings. On deck, you can participate in live points of interest to learn more about the nature, culture, and other phenomena we encounter along the coast.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).

Our advisor at Adventure Life, Mary Curry, was knowledgable and quick to respond with answers to any questions we had. She made our booking efficiently and set up a time for us to make a secure payment through her directly. We’ve used Adventure Life repeatedly and would definitely recommend it.

I selected Adventure Travel as I was not satisfied with the responsiveness of the agent for the cruise I was trying to book and it had good recommendations. So far, I am quite happy with my agent, Betty, very responsive and accommodating.

Erin was great to work with! Very quick with her replies and provided all the information I needed, no matter how many times I changed my request! This was my first time ever planning a trip like this and it couldn't have gone better.
