Tell us about the expedition team
Ashley was a fantastic Expedition leader. She exuded confidence in all of her decisions and was very hands on and proactive about adjusting our itinerary as needed. Lea was quite the animated personality who kept things fresh and fun. Heidi's passion for citizen science projects was infectious.

Fantastic high quality food. Restaurant wait staff was exceptional. Absolutely loved the free wi-fi that worked for most of the trip.
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Antarctica?
Everyone says you end up packing way too many clothes for fear of being too cold. We thought we had cut back on the number of items we brought to a manageable level, but we ended up bringing WAY too much as well. You really don't need as many clothes as you think you do because the provided waterproof jacket is great for insulation and you just need a couple thermal layers underneath to keep warm.
