Why We Like Virgo
-
OUTDOOR VIEWING PLATFORMS
Her spacious decks low to the water – ideal for getting closer to wildlife on the ice. Her large indoor lounge on Deck 2 has immediate access to outer decks.
-
MUD ROOM
Virgo has a fantastic Mud Room for your wet gear and is a place to store your boots and other equipment.
-
TECHNOLOGY
Extra electrical outlets in common areas for charging camera batteries and laptops which is exceptionally important for photographers.
-
COMPACT SIZE
Her compact size means we can avoid the competing interest groups of the larger ships and operate with ultimate flexibility.
