Add your own reviewTrip of a Lifetime
I feel immeasurably humbled to have been able to visit the 7th Continent on this trip. I will now live with the problem of the inability to fully relay to others what it is like to be in Antarctica, to see a landscape unchanged in thousands of years, to smell those penguins, to feel the cold Antarctic breeze, to hear the deafening silence of a sea full of ice. This itinerary gives you so much more time with the continent and crossing the Antarctic Circle was a notable highlight moment of the trip alongside doing the Polar plunge south of the Circle which just added to what was already an out-of-this-world experience. Amazing!
Most Inspirational Moment
Spending 30 minutes watching a pod of 20 Orca's swim alongside our ship as we traversed the Gerlache Strait was incredible. We were quite literally jumping for joy at the sight of multiple Orca leaping in and out of the water in a majestic and beautiful fashion. Of course nothing can be guaranteed with wildlife but this was a real 'pinch me' moment.
Thoughts on Group Leader
The Captain and the Expedition staff were above all compliments. Same perfect service for the hotel and restaurant management. Abby, the expedition leader, was amazingly efficient and her passion for Antarctica was infectious.
Advice for Potential Travellers
If you have ever dreamed of visiting this magical place, just do it, grab the opportunity with both hands. No reading or wildlife documentary can prepare you for that moment you step foot on the continent, see your first Penguin colony, have your first interaction with a humpback from sheer meters away on the Zodiac.
The most stunning trip of my life
Its been a long held dream of mine to go to the Antarctic and the trip I booked via Exodus far exceeded my expectations.
Amazing scenery, captivating and exciting wildlife, a plethora of facts, figures and general education from the on board experts and I can claim a world first to boot from my holiday to the Antarctic and below the polar circle.
Most Inspirational Moment
The landscapes and wildlife. The scenery is breathtaking, from the continent itself to the many islands and icebergs floating away from the land mass and glaciers. I have never seen anywhere quite so remote and in many ways barren, yet at the same time rich in life and activity. And you will never get over the amazing shapes of the ice along with the vivid blues you see in the glaciers and icebergs. Quite sensational. The penguins are of course the stars, but the frequency of whale sightings and fluking along with seals and many type of birds including the mighty albatross just make the experience even more rewarding.
Thoughts on Group Leader
The tour leader is in effect an Expedition Leader fronting a large team of professional from a range of countries. Ours was wonderful. An enormous personality and with the best sense of humour coupled with safety and huge amounts of professional integrity. The people in the expedition team were sensational. They come from a mix of backgrounds, however all have skills in subjects ranging from glaciology to water sports instructor, polar researcher to the armed forces, historian to nature and much more. Not only do you get the chance to attend lectures and learn from them on a really diverse range of topics, but they also accompany the trips off the ship and interact with you during meals and drinks as well as on time when you are cruising. They have both professionally and also personally empowering stories to tell and they really enhanced my trip in a way I did not think possible.
Advice for Potential Travellers
If you want to do any of the activities then book them up as soon as you make your reservation. Spaces are limited and I was unable to camp on the ice or take part in kayaking. Don't worry about being cold. Its not actually as cold as you imagine and the ship is fantastically warm and homely. The jacket and boots they supply you with are excellent. Concentrate on buying good quality thermals in layers along wit6h waterproof trousers and gloves and a warm fleece or wool hat. Edit your photos as you go along and always be ready to shoot stuff. The onboard team will help you with this as they have photographers ready to help with your trip.
