Tell us about Zodiac excursions
Yes, all except the one where we were soaked in the rain! They were an experience and we always felt safe although the swells made embarkation interesting at times!
Tell us about the expedition team
Yes they were knowledgeable, friendly and experienced. Merikka, George, Jess and Jon were very good. Shackleton lectures
