Smithsonian Collection

We were on the inaugural Smithsonian cruise in July, and frankly it was terrible. It was definitely a step down from Regent's enrichment program on other cruises. Has it improved since then?

Just to clarify... The cruise was fine, it was the Smithsonian's contribution to it that was terrible.

I was on the July cruise Copenhagen to Copenhagen and thought the Smithsonian's contribution was fine - but quite as grand as Regent's press hype. Same Destination lecturer as we had last November and he was knowledgeable, interesting and well prepared. Lecture format weren't much different than previous but the "meet & ask" afterwards was fun.

Don't know if the Naturalist lecturer was Smithsonian but he was very accessable and very personable.

Sorry! I settled down and had some coffee. Should have said: " ....NOT quite as grand as..."
