hrprof Posted November 30, 2009 #2 Share Posted November 30, 2009 We have been to the Arctic and the Antarctic on Endeavour before it was moved to the Galapagos. Like all other Lindblad expeditions, it is the best. The staff is what makes the experience outstanding. Endeavour is much more comfortable than the Polaris (We did the Galapagos on Polaris) which it has replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excgregg Posted November 30, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Is it true that unlike most cruises for dinner it is very casual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrprof Posted December 1, 2009 #4 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Yes, dinner is very casual (within the bounds of good taste) No need to bring a tux, jacket or tie. Normal dress is sport shirt and khakis - you'll even see some shorts and T shirts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calbill Posted December 20, 2009 #5 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Can't say enough good things, as long as you are prepared for a nature intense trip. It is awesome. The ship's food was outstanding, especially given the compactness of the kitchen facilities. Staff took care of every need. Snorkel gear is provided (we took our own). We especially liked the open seating at dinner, as we got to mix and mingle with different people at each meal. The evening review session was great in the cocktail lounge, getting a review of what we had seen that day, and what to expect the next day. All the guides were very knowledgeable and exciting to be with on the daily excursions. Great way to see Galapagos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
askworldtraveler Posted January 25, 2010 #6 Share Posted January 25, 2010 very last minute decision booked this last week - any thoughts of what to bring that may be 'outside' the suggested list and common sense :-)? Many thanks - I've been several times to the galapagos - always magical - wanted a photographic trip this time.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks - I've been several times to the galapagos - always magical - wanted a photographic trip this time.... Can't wait to hear about your trip. We are booked to leave January, 2011. Since there is almost 24 hours of light we would be interested to know if you are off the ship in the evening as well as during the day. We have traveled with Lindblad to the Galapagos and the Napa Valley and they provide a great trip. Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scmomof2 Posted October 15, 2010 #11 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Can't wait! Just booked the Endeavour for the Feb 4 trip. Anyone else going then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted October 15, 2010 #12 Share Posted October 15, 2010 We're booked on the Islander in March. Are you doing MP too? There is a lot of helpful information on the Celebrity Expedition thread. Not too many Lindblad posters on CC. For some reason, we keep gravitating toward ever smaller ships. This will be our smallest yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scmomof2 Posted October 19, 2010 #13 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I wanted to do MP, but can't bear to be apart from my kids any longer. 10 days is going to be a long time for the hubby to manage 2 kids! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
