Overall we enjoyed the cruise, the stage entertainment was weak compared to other cruise ships.
The food was good but Helen found there was a lack of choice as she does not eat red meat.

The ship is looking at bit tired. It was going into dock at the end of the cruise for a 2 week refit. Staff were brilliant at all times. A bit disappointing that in the last few days the crew were getting ready for the refit and materials were left out on deck. Most of the port were commercial and noisy and we had to be bussed off. This could have been quite limiting if you didn't plan

We were very impressed with the standard of service and facilities. The staff were all amazing. So welcoming and so good at remembering our names. I’d like to pass on particular thanks to our cabin stewards, Sam and Putu, we were in cabin 4040. They took good care of us and were always super quick at fulfilling any requests we made. The staff in the restaurants were equally friendly and helpful. . Special thanks to the bar staff at the Pinnacle and the Observation deck. Leaving the ship was made so easy and was efficient and on Tender days they took great care of us and supported us so kindly.
The Captain and his officers were excellent. Despite changeable weather we were able to enjoy the cruise come what may. The morning we stopped at the glacier was magical and I think special praise to the Captain for manoeuvres to get us so close to appreciate the awe and wonder.

Stunning itinerary. Particular thanks to cabin stewards Harry and Sy for looking after us and Sy. quickly bringing my phone to gangway when left in cabin, Thanks also to patient staff at guest service desk, especially Joel following great principles of customer service listening and taking time to resolve a disembarkation difficulty without making any promises which may not be fulfillable but following up to check everything was ok Problem resolved. A memorable cruise aboard Oosterdam Enjoyed all restaurants and entertainment. Took a number of excursions with very interesting and knowledgeable guides but were all quite expensive.

Strait of Magellan - Cruising
DAY 10
28 Feb 2026
Among the most important natural waterways in the world, the Strait of Magellan is a navigable sea route through southern Chile connecting the Atlantic Ocean with the Pacific Ocean; shorter and more sheltered than the Drake Passage around Cape Horn, it could save important time when navigating this infamous trade route. First discovered in 1520 by Portuguese navigator Ferdinand Magellan, this route is roughly 350 miles long and separates the Tierra del Fuego archipelago from mainland South America. While shorter and generally more safe to sail through, it still proved a challenge – with it taking Magellan reportedly 38 days to navigate initially. Unpredictable winds and currents, alongside the fact that it’s only just over a mile wide at its most narrow point, made it tricky for larger ships; thus, Clipper style sailing ships often preferred the Drake Passage when navigating this trade route. By 1914, with the opening of the Panama Canal, the Strait of Magellan was rendered obsolete as a trade route; however, with modern cruise technology making it a breeze to navigate, this stretch of water is now an incredibly unique scenic cruising experience. While here, you’ll have the chance to admire dramatic rocky landscapes, vibrant woodlands, bright blue glaciers, and more; if you’re lucky, you’ll have the chance to spot humpback whales breaching the water and Magellanic penguins clustered on the shores.
Strait of Magellan - Cruising:
Punta Arenas
The capital of Chile’s Magallanes and Antarctica Chilena region and one of the few settlements you’ll sail past as you navigate the Strait of Magellan, Punta Arenas is an important geopolitical and logistical city for Chile; it’s also the most southernmost city in the world with a population of over 100,000 people. An invaluable launching point for Antarctic adventures and an important base for Chile to defend its sovereignty over the islands south of the Strait of Magellan, the settlement here exploded throughout the 1880s and early 1900s due to a gold rush and sheep farming boom. Since 2017, it has also been using its own time zone year-round, rather than utilising a winter time zone and summer time zone like the rest of Chile – something similar to the daylight savings the UK operates on.
Alberto de Agostini National Park
An impressive protected area in southern Chile, you’ll see parts of the Alberto de Agostini National Park as you cruise the Strait of Magellan; home to several tidewater glaciers and dramatic fjords, you’ll find the Cordellera Darwin mountain range here – the final stretch of the Andes before they sink into the Pacific Ocean. The third-largest national park in Chile, the rugged landscapes of Chilean Antarctica are breathtaking and not to be missed.
Punta Arenas
DAY 10
28 Feb 2026
Time at Port: from 6 AM to 6 PM
The peninsular of Punta Arenas is a hugely popular location for those wanting to whale watch either from the rugged coastline or boat trips out to sea. Cruisers stopping by can also enjoy the sanctuary for sea life such as endangered turtles and seahorses, or kayak along the Magellan Straits to spot penguins. Explore the main boulevard and take in the local art gallery, or hit the duty free area for fantastic souvenirs.
Things to do in Punta Arenas:
Magellan Penguins Natural Reserve
Home to around 60,000 pairs of Magellan penguins, Magellan Penguins Natural Reserve is a fantastic place to get up close to nature. The boat ride there is also a chance to spot whales and other marine life, before getting some great photos with the penguins.

Things to do in Ushuaia:

Scenic Cruising Cape Horn
DAY 12
02 Mar 2026
Widely believed to be the most southerly point of South America for a long time, and a destination marking the meeting point of the Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean, Cape Horn is a stunning headland on Hornos Island – one of the larger landmasses in the Tierra del Fuego archipelago – known for unusual rock formations, tumultuous weather, and its significant role in maritime trading from the 1700s to the early 20th century. Initially discovered by Spanish explorers in 1526, and eventually first fully rounded by Dutch navigators for the East India Company in 1616 – who then named this destination Kaap Hoorn, after Hoorn in the Netherlands – Cape Horn is a rocky outlet steeped in maritime history. Navigating around Cape Horn was once a dangerous feat, with rough waters and intense winds making this trade route a valuable one – when navigated successfully, anyway. Rendered largely obsolete as a trade route by the Panama Canal, now Cape Horn represents a breathtaking scenic cruising experience you can enjoy without worrying about the treacherous sailing conditions.
Scenic Cruising Cape Horn:
Cape Horn Monument
A sculpture paying homage to the sailors who lost their lives attempting to navigate around Cape Horn, the Cape Horn monument stands along a lighthouse and the Stella Maris, a small Catholic chapel. It stands 24 feet tall on a hilltop roughly 165 feet above sea level.
Black-Browed Albatross Sightings
A highlight among the seabirds you can see when sailing around Cape Horn, black-browed albatrosses are among the most populous of its family – but no less impressive to see while at sea. With a wingspan of 200 cm to 240 cm and a natural lifespan of over 70 years, these bright white seabirds have a dark eyestripe and broad black edging to the underside of their wings.
Southern Rockhopper Penguin Spotting
A vulnerable penguin species often found in subantarctic waters like those surrounding Cape Horn, these are among the smallest species of its family; with breeding colonies around Cape Horn, you may spot some of these incredible animals during your sailing. They’re known for their bright yellow eyebrows, ending in long yellow plumes, and red eyes.
Port Stanley, Falkland Islands
DAY 13
03 Mar 2026
Time at Port: from 8 AM to 6 PM

Montevideo
DAY 16
06 Mar 2026
Time at Port: from 8 AM to 6 PM
Located on the north-eastern bank of the Rio de la Plata, Montevideo is the capital city of Uruguay and a modern metropolis with a difference. Boasting stunning European art deco-style architecture, a hangover from this region’s colonial past, Montevideo is home to an expansive beach promenade and a South American atmosphere to match. Here, you’ll find the Rambla, a riverfront avenue that’s one of the world’s longest continuous sidewalks – which just highlights how perfect Montevideo is if you’re looking to take a laid-back wander here. Beyond this, though, if you’re looking for a little more action, you’ll find a bustling marketplace in Mercado del Puerto, intriguing exhibitions in the Andes Museum and Museo El Juguetero (just two of the several incredible museums and galleries in Montevideo), and fantastic food everywhere you turn. With all the modern comforts of a capital city, but a relaxed atmosphere that lets you savour the little things, a visit to this metropolis is worth looking forward to.
Things to do in Montevideo:
Legislative Palace of Uruguay
A monumental example of neo-classical architecture in the heart of Montevideo, the Legislative Palace of Uruguay acts as the meeting place of the General Assembly of Uruguay, the seat of the legislative branch of the Uruguayan government, and a remarkable landmark to see when you visit. Built between 1904 and 1925, it was constructed to commemorate 100 years of Uruguayan independence.
Obelisk of Montevideo
Built in 1930 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the first Constitution of Uruguay as a homage to the original members of the General Assembly, this three-sided structure stretches 40 metres up and is flanked by three bronze structures representing Law, Liberty, and Force. In 1983, it was the site of Rio de Libertad – the nation’s largest demonstration ever, demanding an end to the civil-military dictatorship in place at the time.
Palacio Salvo
Standing 95 metres tall, this stunning structure takes advantage of eclectic architectural designs to deliver one of the most remarkable buildings in Montevideo. Built with the intention of being a hotel in 1928, it’s now a mixture of private residences and office spaces – though tours of the building are available at select times during the day.
