Food and hotel staff were all excellent. Being on Deck 3 the cabin was small but we coped.
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Antarctica?
1. Don’t take walking boots as they are not necessary. 2. Take Crocs or similar to wear from cabin to mudroom. 3. The weight allowance from Buenos Aries to Ushuaia is only 15kg and so pre-book another 15kg.
