"A journey outside of time and all its constraints. A bubble of pure moments of happiness where everything is enchantment. Whether it is the ship itself and its crew at the height of their 5* or the places visited, everything is magic. We found much more than what we went looking for. Thank you." Catherine O., back from a cruise on Le Boréal in Antarctica.
