Devil’s Island with HAL, is Papillon movie always available or shown on board beforehand?

[Alphen]

Just wondering if HAL is sailing to Devil’s Island, is the movie Papillon always available or shown on board beforehand?

Last year - yes

 

if you are on the Amazon they show a very interesting movie based on a fable about a wild boy who lives with the pink dolphins

Yes, we are hoping to do the Amazon next year, thanks for the reply.

 We were discussing this yesterday with other cruisers. We have been to South America by various modes quite a bit and I must warn you that southern Brazil is not a place to take chances - use the ship excursions.  DO the 4 day Iguazu Falls, it is wonderful.  You will not regret it, we left the ship in Buenos Aires and rejoined in Sao Paolo, we went with HAL and it was money well spent!  We find Northern Brazil tame by our measure and enjoy independent strolls as well as ship excursions to some hard to reach locations.  If you are also doing western South America get to Lima early and go to Macchu Picchu independently.

Thanks for the tips, we are doing FLL - FLL, so no Iguazu Falls, but we have done South America/Antarctica previously from BA (declined the falls because we did not have enough days off) and have also done San Diego to Lima, followed by Machu Picchu independently previously.
