10/10 - The whole trip was great. The crew really tried to accommodate for all scenarios and sneaked in some surprise visits to unplanned areas, which was really appreciated. Also, they took great care in making sure everyone was safe and enjoyed their landings or cruisings.

10/10 - Every single day was something amazing to see and/or learn about.

We were at South Georgia Island on Christmas Day. The expedition team were skilled at getting my friends and I into the zodiac and touring us along the shoreline to see macaroni penguins, fur seals, gentoo penguins, elephant seals and Weddell seals up close and personal. It was certainly a Christmas I will never forget.

10/10 - I can only add that going to Antarctica via all the stops/islands and slowly entering into the White Continent and icebergs was a great way to do it. Plus the additional wildlife this route offered was mind-blowing.

Travelled: December 2023

There were so many memorable moments! If I had to choose, it would be our days in Antarctica, the hike to the caldera on Penguin Island, our first landing on the continent, the hikes to the top of hills for magnificent views, the zodiac cruises to see wildlife and icebergs. Getting to see the wildlife in their natural habitat was nothing short of amazing!

Travelled: December 2023

The islands, the wildlife were beyond my expectations as were the staff, fellow travelers and lectures. What was not great was all the time on the boat. However, I'm not sure how to get around that! South Georgia in particular was a rare treat.

Travelled: November 2023

There were so many memorable moments. Seeing a pod of Killer Whales, setting foot on the 7th continent, the elephant seal pups looking up with those adorable eyes, the king penguin chicks running and flapping around trying to shake off their down coats. What a trip!

10/10 - Absolutely beautiful. Great professional staff and planning, especially from Pippa, Expedition Team Leader.

Travelled: January 2023

Most memorable moment? Being able to stand in front of the colony of king penguins.

Travelled: January 2023

South Georgia Island is absolutely a must see if you are traveling that far. I know it is more expensive, but it makes the trip amazing.

10/10 - Incredible wildlife and the staff did their best despite several weather issues to get us on shore. Itinerary is very weather dependent.

Travelled: January 2023

10/10 - Combines great parts of the Antarctic area. History, culture, wildlife, geology were fascinating.

Travelled: December 2022

So hard to pick our most memorable moment between that first thrill of wildlife at West Point with the albatross and rockhopper colony, the full day sitting amongst and soaking in all the wildlife at sunny Saunders Bay, or the Adelie penguin overload at Paulet island. Or maybe the excitement at seeing an orca pop up out of nowhere on New Year's Eve. It really is a trip of endless memorable moments that would each be the highlight of any other holiday.

Travelled: December 2022

We would particularly recommend adding in the Falklands and South Georgia. The Falklands was such a lovely surprise and on top of Stanley and the history there the wildlife was amazing and as good as anything else we saw the whole trip. South Georgia lived up to its reputation for the greatest wildlife, plus its dramatic landscape and history. If you can then it is definitely the best itinerary to follow.

I describe this adventure as going to the moon and back. Of course, a trip like this is very weather dependent - but our weather could not have been any more perfect! Our expedition leader, Sarah, was determined to get us off the ship as much as possible. We had 17 landings and 2 cancelled landings, of which one was substituted for a zodiac excursion so we didn't miss the penguin colony. So you ask what was my most memorable moment - every day, every longing, every guide, every lecture was memorable. This was an otherworldly experience.

Travelled: December 2022

We can't say enough good things about the entire team; from the direct support staff to the onboard staff. They were all friendly, helpful, informed, and knowledgeable.

Travelled: November 2021

The wildlife in South Georgia was amazing! I would recommend everybody who makes the journey to Antartica to make sure that they include South Georgia in their itinerary.

Travelled: December 2019

Everyone from the expedition team was really friendly and had lots of information about wildlife, history and just anything you might want to know about Antarctica.

Travelled: December 2019

I loved our cruise to Antarctica. Every landing was a highlight and it is definiely the best place I have ever visited.

Travelled: December 2019

The buildup was perfect - first visiting the Falklands, Carcass and Saunders Islands, and then on to South Georgia made for great wildlife interaction. We certainly had enough time during the excursions to take great pictures. Weather is always an issue but on our trip we were fortunate to have reasonable good weather and could go on shore on most of our excursions.

Travelled: November 2019

Perfect from start to finish.

Travelled: February 2019

It was a fabulous trip, something I had dreamt of doing since the late 1960's. I was absolutely thrilled by the whole package and experience. A personal experience of exploration and learning which I will always treasure.

Travelled: December 2017

Expedition staff were excellent! The icebergs were unbelievable and we were stunned by the glaciers. Penguins caught my heart and I loved the many species of penguins and other birds.

Travelled: December 2017

We saw an amazing amount of wildlife, seven penguin species and four whale species. Walking on an ice floe in the Weddell sea was perfect.

Travelled: November 2017

All staff and crew were brilliant at handling the Zodiac excursions. We particularly enjoyed having expedition staff driving the boat on excursions as they were able to talk to us about what we were seeing. We loved doing the Shackleton Hike - the crew brought his story to life for us in many ways.
