From the viewing points on Deck 6 to the heated outdoor spaces on Deck 5 and the Aula lecture center and Finse Terrace on Deck 2, guests can take in the beautiful wildlife and nature right from the ship. The numerous restaurants onboard offer high-quality dishes with excellent variety and accommodate allergies and dietary restrictions.
