The 76-guest Wilderness Discoverer underwent extensive refurbishment in early 2011 and guest raves are still flowing. Expedition un-cruising is top-of-mind with this ship; and adventure and discovery lay at its heart.
Throughout your voyage you become familiar with the crew and staff who enrich your time aboard. Depending on where you are and what you're doing on any given day, there are provocative presentations on deck and in the salon or lounge that educate you on the environment, wildlife, history, and culture of the region. Local experts are often invited along as special guests to talk story and provide insights unavailable to most other visitors.
Public spaces include an inviting dining room and main lounge/salon; an observation deck ideal for close-up wildlife viewing; and a hot tub for relaxing under the stars. The most popular gathering place is the main lounge, evoking the feeling of a National Park lodge or a quaint neighborhood pub.
A more casual-style dining experience is offered on these Wilderness boats, where exceptionally high quality fare is generally served buffet-style. All meals ensure fresh, healthful dining experiences.
