We recently had clients take a cruise on the Marco Polo. Here is what they wrote:

Dear Sheila,

Thank you, dear friend, for arranging our trip to Antarctica aboard the Orient Lines Cruise ship Marco Polo.

As you know, we also took the pre-cruise extension to go to Iguazu Falls on the border of Argentina and Brazil. This is a trip definitely well worth taking. One cannot imagine the beauty of that part of the world. The falls are two and on-half times as high as Niagara and over two miles wide. They are located in the national park called "Parque Nacional Do Iguazu".

Late on the afternoon of December 30th we boarded the Marco Polo for a fantastic cruise which included a New Year's Eve party the following night. Toasting my wife, Lorraine, at midnight on New Year's Eve on a ship headed through the South Atlantic for Antarctica-the trip of a lifetime-is something I will never forget!

On our way south along the Antarctic peninsula, we stopped at many places-each one more beautiful than the last. We saw lots of whales, seals and penguins. What a thrill it was to have a Chinstrap Penguin walk between my legs on Half Moon Island! Another highlight was talking to some Navy men at the Chilean Base at Paradise Harbor and having them give us some
patches for our jackets!

On a scale of 1 to 10, the lectures, food, and entertainment were a 12 (off the charts!)

Would we go again? YOU BET!


Best Wishes
Lloyd and Lorraine
