Independence

Ship Rating:

Debuting in 2010, Independence boasts spacious interiors – including staterooms and public areas – and features Rolls Royce stabilizers to provide a more comfortable cruising experience. Eighty percent of the ship’s riverview staterooms include private balconies; the scenery of North America is also always on display from the observation deck. Passengers can relax in the lounge or library or take advantage of the onboard exercise equipment. Fresh meals featuring local specialties and in-season ingredients are served daily in the glass-enclosed dining room.
