Photographers and wild life spotters could have a busy day. Bring a PicnicThe non-stop nature of the cruise means you can bring a picnic lunch to enjoy with a glass of wine, beer, soft drinks or tea & coffee from the bar on board. The lower deck saloon provides carpeted comfort with good views from the large windows. (Third photo shows a recent wedding scene) An exclusive opportunityPassenger numbers are limited to 100.
