DRESS CODE The dress code is relaxed. Light, comfortable clothing is ideal for during the day, but smart casual clothing for evenings on board the ship is recommended. You may wish to bring something a little dressier for the Welcome and Farewell dinners and any special events. For Europe and the Kimberley we recommend that you pack a variety of light to medium weight clothing, plus rain-wear in case of cooler or wet weather. Layers are a good option to cover a range of temperatures and to suit changing conditions. Comfortable footwear is imperative, as some excursions involve walking steps or ramps to embark/disembark. If your sightseeing includes churches, monasteries, synagogues or mosques, dress casually, but keep your clothes clean and ensure sufficient body cover (for example cover your shoulders and wear trousers or a knee-length dress). When travelling to Antarctica, APT guests will be receive a polar jacket and beanie and use of expedition boots onboard the ship. Any extra wet weather rental gear such as waterproof pants, mittens and layered clothing can be booked prior to departure and it will be delivered to the ship at an additional cost. E ELEVATOR A small elevator is located on the ship. Please note that Deck 7, the Sun Deck is not accessible by elevator. EXPEDITION TEAM To ensure you get the most out of your adventure, Kimberley and Antarctica cruises are led and organised by our outstanding onboard Expedition Team. These hand-picked experts are specialists in their field. They include naturalists, historians and ecologists whose passion it is to share their knowledge and enthusiasm with you. F FREEDOM OF CHOICE INCLUSIONS Freedom of Choice Inclusions are included as indicated throughout itineraries. Minimum and maximum group numbers may apply on some activities.

H HOTELS The official check-in time at most hotels in Europe is 3pm local time but where possible, the hotel will try to have your room available earlier. If your flight arrives in the morning, luggage can be dropped off at the hotel before check-in and delivered to your room later. You will be required to present a credit card upon check-in to cover incidentals. If you do not have a credit card, a monetary deposit in local currency may be required.

If you have a late afternoon or evening flight, most hotels have a luggage room where you can store your luggage until you depart for the airport.
