Two questions for those who have cruised on Ponant ships, both related to attire. First, the Tauck packing advice says that "...the international mix of travelers on board tend to dress somewhat more formally than one might expect. Thus, you may prefer to wear a jacket and tie..." Have others found this to be the case? Or do Tauck guests comprise most or all of the guests on the Tauck cruise dates? Sure would be nice to leave the blazer, tie, slacks, and dress shoes at home for a change.
Also, we signed up for kayaking, and the Tauck advice is to bring water shoes or sneakers. But what about the rest of me? Swim trunks? wear shorts and a shirt and expect them to get wet? Are dry suits provided?
Looking forward to seeing Norwegian fjords after two years of cancellations!
