    Hi!   This will be our first trip on Silversea and first trip to Antarctica December 2023 - so want to get it right!   I have been trawling the pages of CC and have managed to get answers to most of my questions.  There are a couple of things I am still not sure about so any help would be appreciated.  

     

    1)  The Photography Academy - is it available on Silver Wind?   If so, does anyone know approximate prices involved?  Does anyone have good (or negative) experience of this? 

    2)  Silversea has recently changed our Pre and Post hotel from Mandarin Oriental to Hotel W in Santiago.  Does anyone have good (or negative) experience of this hotel? 

    3)  Does Silversea offer any dining at the hotel Pre/Post cruise.  When I originally booked, the agent said that normally there is a pre-cruise dinner at the hotel, however I am now being told this is when sailing on the Endeavour only.  

    4)  When staying in Santiago, do we require local currency for incidentals, tipping etc or will we exchange our Scottish money for English pounds or US dollars? 

     

     

    Many thanks in advance

     

    Also does silver wind have bean bags for use camera people, that don’t want to lug it on the plane.   

  2. you are correct...I did ask how the excursions were on the cruise at the top of my email......thinking others may speak to the pre/post tours since they are included.....other cruise companies offer the paid pre/post....was curious about what anyone wanted to tell me  about their personal experience...I will go in and use the search bar for specifics...thanks for everyones help!
