Unfortunately this option was sold out and we did not get to participate.

Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Antarctica?

It is important to do your research especially regarding clothing, activities, and potential conditions (ie, Drake passage crossing and Antarctic weather). Also, the Argentinean airlines were difficult to deal with (constantly changing flight times that messed up connections, no ability to reach them to make changes)- so it is important to monitor the flights and be able to make changes sometimes before you can resolve the now useless ticket reservation.

Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?

Yes, it was an extraordinary experience that inspires many personal reflections regarding day to day living.

Do you have any recommendations for Swoop, or feedback about the team?

Thanks for the assistance and being there to answer our many questions.
