Dave Stone 's Trip:
South Georgia, Antarctica and Falklands ExplorerDave Stone 's Trip Date:
10th Feb - 6th Mar 2019
Dave Stone 's Ship:
Island SkyOverall, how was your trip?
South Georgia would rank as the highlight insofar as the scenery and the wildlife were both off the scale. The expedition team were excellent, both in terms of the varied and informative lectures, and their professionalism conducting the excursions. The 'Island Sky' staff were first-rate as well, from the ship's officers getting us into sheltered inlets, to the superb catering, and the tireless deck hands and hotel workers. Biggest surprise: Drake Lake! Magic moment: Being 'inspected' by a fur seal pup.
In one sentence, what did you think of Antarctica? Did it live up to your expectations?
It was absolutely brilliant; it definitely exceeded expectations.
Would you visit again?
Yes
How was the service that Swoop provided?
Delighted with Swoop's service. The ship was ideal in terms of size, its complement of 99 passengers ensuring that everyone could take part in excursions together. The luxurious interior of the ship was the perfect foil for the harsh environment outside. The pre-cruise admin and briefing was both timely and thorough, and any queries I raised were dealt with quickly and satisfactorily.
