About one month before departure, you will receive your Final Joining Instructions. This document includes all embarkation details, such as meeting points, timings, and directions for accessing the port.
If you are planning to arrive independently, please reach out to our client services team so we can ensure your travel plans align with the timing and logistics of the expedition. We like to know where our guests are prior to departure so that nothing is overlooked and everything runs smoothly.
