Please let us know in advance upon booking your trip. Our chef works hard to accommodate every dietary restriction. We also ask again upon check in. The chef also usually checks in with our guests individually during the first breakfast.

We do not provide alcohol, however you may bring your own and store it in one of our coolers on board.
Should I bring snacks?
You are welcome to bring snacks and store them in the galley with the chef. We do not allow food in your stateroom as we work hard at keeping the ship clean for our guests. However, there will be more food than you could imagine on board the vessel. If you are hungry there are usually leftover pastries and snacks from the previous meal.
