What our customers think of Antarctic Peninsula Explorer

10/10 - Crew, boat, fellow travellers all added to the success of the trip. Got to see a great deal of Antarctica, and various bays and islands. Amazing to have the opportunity to kayak during the trip, but also do onshore landings if you wanted. The boat crew did an amazing job to make sure it was the best experience

10/10 - The trip was something I had always wanted to do, but never became a reality. I don't think people understand how beautiful and quiet it is. It was a time for quiet and reflection and to enjoy a place where mankind has not totally destroyed everything. The adventures were one of a kind and the people who helped make the trip unique were also wonderful.

Small-ship expeditions allowed us to be on land for a good amount of time. The expedition team was top notch and they knew many of the passengers by name. The ship is a smaller ship, so it was able to get to many places.

The seal and penguin species were well documented by the expedition staff and I felt that they did a great job with educating us before arrival in Antarctica from various speeches and learning opportunities to know about what we'd encounter. There were numerous great photo opportunities daily!

The daily expeditions were well run, adventurous, and led by amazingly insightful, patient, and FUN expedition staff. There was no one moment that was great, they were all great.

From beginning to end the trip was fantastic. It was so educational and I learned more about the wildlife, geology and history of Antarctica than I could have imagined. All the staff and crew members were knowlegeable and helpful. It was absolutely awe inspiring and the most exciting adventure I have ever been on.
