Onboard Communications & Facilities
Keep in mind, we will be cruising in a very remote region of the world. Where accessible, internet access is available for an extra charge.
The official language onboard is English; however, the expedition team and crew are often a wonderful mix of nationalities. If you form part of a large group and require communication in your own language, please let us know and we may be able to make special arrangements to accommodate your needs.
