Were Swoop right to recommend Aurora Expeditions?

Yes

Tell us about the expedition team

Everyone on the expedition team was incredibly friendly and wanted people to stop and talk to them about anything Antarctica related. There were several lectures that werent the most interesting subject, but the presenter made them fantastic. Leo's video on the baby seal was amazing.

Tell us about the Sylvia Earle

Ship was very clean and in great shape. The support staff in the restaurants was great. Our room was promptly cleaned anytime we left the door hanger on asking for a clean.

Tell us about the Paddling

10/10 would absolutely recommend paddling. If you were in the paddle group you got to land on shore first and explore the area before everyone else from the boat was ferried over by zodiac, and this might have been the best part of paddling. Was absolutely worth the extra money.

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

If you are on the more adventurous side do the paddling or snorkeling. You get to land first, check out all of the penguins and seals and wildlife before the rest of the boat, and still get to paddle around.

Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?

Antarctica was more beautiful than i had expected, and seeing all of the unique wildlife was incredible.

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

Hannah did a great job helping us prepare for this adventure, and also helping us coordinate getting married in Antarctica!
