booth and wrap around bench seating throughout. In addition, Aventure's main cabin includes a buffet table, full service bar, and two
restrooms. Aventure is equipped with a stereo C.D. player audible on all decks. While your crew members will have digital music
onboard, you are welcome to bring an iPod or Mp3 player with your own music compilation. Aventure's main deck has a
beautiful walk out aft (back) veranda, a favorite place for guests to gather as water gently passes by.
