Yes, I agree that it was pricey and should have included all alcohol beverages, but it was still a good buy for the itinerary and the Zodiac options and the lectures.
Perhaps I am just too used to Seabourn. One problem was that it was $200% for a single traveler, but thankfully (g) my partner had his gallbladder out so I got it for 100% after claiming the insurance. Some cruisers do find the Japan itineraries interesting.
