Thanks. You should stay tuned as I am soon going to be onboard their newest, most luxurious icebreaker Le Commandant Charcot and I am hopeful that I will release a ship tour of this newest ship from Ponant.
On our cruise it was only filled up one day, and that was with Antarctica water so that we could do a polar plunge in the pool. Check out here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Cev9VVprN-E.html
Hi Ken. Thanks for showing us around. I love the smaller ships. The pool didn’t look appealing to me but the bistro area was very nice. You would definitely see me in the library. Overall I liked the the tour of the ship. Xx
wow,,, I am so excited.. thinking of going next year.. did you book direct? or a travel agency.. and approx how much did it cost. and what time of year did you go.. thanks.. your video was great xx
Thanks for your support. We booked ours direct with Ponant. It was the cheapest one for that period. I think prices are higher now, but that's the same with everything else. We went at Christmas time, check out my other videos where we celebrated Christmas on the ship.
Unfortunately, not on this ship. They do have it on their icebreaker cruise ship Le Commandant Charcot. You can see the full tour of that on my channel.
I recently sailed Le Boreal from Hawaii to French Polynesia. I would add a few things - There are very few public restrooms ... There is a group (3) outside of the main lounge (handicapped, women's, men's) on deck 3, one (only) outside of the theater on deck 4 and one at the spa on deck 5. I asked multiple bartenders where the nearest bathroom was and many times they said, "your room". Also, the threshold to the entrance on the main lounge on deck 3 was very slippery - It may have been the humidity of our location but I slipped many times. Not to mention, the pool deck is very slippery when wet - I wore beach-walking shoes all the time (pool splashes a lot and it rained a few times).
Thanks for your comments. The lack of toilets is something I did notice, but only when we were disembarking, as yes normally the easiest bathroom to go to is your own stateroom's.
Only on gala dinners nights. There were 3 of them. (One extra due to Christmas). You could get away with dressing less formally and if you don’t want to, you could eat at the buffet instead. We just prefer to dress up a bit for the occasion.
@@KenTravels360 Thanks, Ken! I love how you respond so quickly to queries and answer all questions. .You’re the best travel channel I’ve found and it’s wonderful to subscribe to your channel.
I use Stugeron which is widely available in the UK. They should be taken an hour or two before motion. If you are based elsewhere, then some other medicine may be more common for motion sickness. The best advice I can give is to go to your local pharmacy and ask them the best medicine for motion sickness for you.
Thanks for watching and your comment. To be fair, the kids were well behaved, and we decided really noticed them until the Christmas party. Most expedition cruise lines allow kids on their cruise, and it's not possible to predict if there would be kids on your sailing or not.
