It's great! You can have time alone when you want it, but there are plenty of people to meet and spend time with when you want to. I took a 2 week cruise from Valparaiso around Cape Horn to Uruguay and EZE, had a great time. I met a lot of folks to share land side trips with, but could hang out in the lounges and watch the glaciers as we floated by if I just felt like relaxing by myself. I had a regular dinner table with the other younger passengers on the ship, so had some friends that I saw every evening.
