Immediately forward of the observation lounge a sundeck will provide similar views. A spacious main lounge will also feature on the same deck and will adjoin the ships bar. The bar’s unique indoor/outdoor aspect will ensure that passengers have convenient access to bar services whether relaxing in the lounge or partying in the al fresco area.

All cabins feature enhanced décor, en-suite facilities, in-house entertainment and satellite telephones. The Explorer Class staterooms and the River Class cabins offer king size beds that can be converted to singles and the Ocean Class twins feature roomy single beds.

Multiple expedition boats allow passengers to do “what they want, when the want” and, to add yet another dimension to adventure, the True North is the only Kimberley adventure-cruise ship that sails with it’s own helicopter!

The purpose built True North is able to explore the upper reaches of shallow river systems – passengers need only step out of their cabins to experience wilderness and, the latest in computer controlled motion stabilizers ensures a comfortable ride.
