Tell us about the expedition team
All the team members where so approachable, helpful, and congenital and worked so hard to give us the best experience possible. They always seemed to be very safety conscious.
Tell us about the Island Sky
The Island Sky was a very lovely, well appointed and well maintained ship. The staff, from the captain to the service staff were so friendly, attentive and efficient. The ship and cabins were always sparkling clean and the food was superb.
Tell us about the Kayaking
The kayaking was a definite highlight. Paddling amongst penguins, whales and icebergs was unforgettable and the guides always looked to our safety.
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Antarctica?
The following factors were important considerations for us and we would recommend to others to consider them as well: *. Size of Ship--we were very glad there were fewer than 100 passengers. This allowed for more efficient and frequent zodiac excursions and landings * Environmental ethics of the expedition company * Availability of kayaking, lectures on pertinent subjects, Citizen Science participation * Cabin location midship and not too high up if possible to decrease chance of sea sickness
Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?
A clearer vision about the fragility of the Antarctic continent, the global consequences of climate change; the concern arises on the increasing level of tourism and whether more limits need to be established.
How prepared and excited for Antarctica did you feel?
