Cruises to the Antarctic Peninsula

If you are looking for short or long Antartic Expedition. Just choose Oceanwide

Our journey with Oceanwide Expeditions was nothing short of spectacular! From start to finish, the entire experience was flawlessly executed, making it the trip of a lifetime. Exceptional Crew & Leadership The crew was absolutely outstanding—professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly passionate about the polar regions. A special shoutout to our phenomenal expedition leader, Sara, whose expertise, enthusiasm, and warm personality made every excursion even more memorable. She kept us informed, engaged, and inspired throughout the entire expedition. Breathtaking Wildlife Encounters We were fortunate to witness countless penguins, from adorable Gentoo chicks to large colonies of King and Adelie penguins. Seeing whales up close—humpbacks gracefully surfacing near our Zodiac—was simply magical. And the playful seals, lazily lounging on the ice or curiously approaching our boats, added to the wonder of it all. Every day felt like a new wildlife documentary unfolding before our eyes. The Majestic Icebergs & Landscape No words can truly capture the beauty of the icebergs we encountered. Towering blue sculptures, ever-changing in shape and color, made for a mesmerizing sight. The Antarctic landscapes, with their endless white expanses and jagged peaks, were awe-inspiring in every way. Delicious Cuisine Onboard After long days of exploration, returning to the ship to enjoy amazing food was an absolute delight. The chefs onboard crafted delicious meals that were both comforting and gourmet—perfectly suited for fueling our daily adventures. From fresh seafood to decadent desserts, every meal exceeded expectations. A Journey Worth Taking Oceanwide Expeditions delivered an exceptional, once-in-a-lifetime adventure that we will cherish forever. The combination of a world-class crew, incredible wildlife encounters, breathtaking landscapes, and fantastic food made this trip unforgettable. If you're considering an expedition to the polar regions, look no further—this is the company to go with! Would I do it again? Absolutely, in a heartbeat!

What can I say about the trip of a lifetime? The trip far exceeded my expectations. It was the combination of the spectacular wildlife, the islands and locations we visited. Undoubtedly the weather helped, with a beautiful sunrise in Antarctic Sound. The expedition staff were excellent and knowledgeable in their fields of expertise. The living quarters were excellent and the hotel staff couldn’t be faulted. The food was outstanding, with its quality and variety, even if soup wasn’t always served owing to the sea conditions. I give full marks to the chef and his team for producing such quality food on a moving vessel. I would have been very happy if I only saw half of what we did see on this trip, it was truly outstanding.

Sehr gutes, relativ kleines Schiff in gutem Zustand und in guten Händen. Tolles Expeditionsteam, das viel weiß und freundlich und immer um die Gäste bemüht ist. Unschlagbares Wildlife.

This is an excellent cruise to take if you are an adventure lover with passion for wild lives. It was a dream come true for me.

We had a fabulous time on board. The facilities were excellent, the food was delicious, the service was impeccable and the expedition guides and staff were delightful and friendly. We do have one or possibly two regrets. We got to spend less than 24 hours around the peninsula amidst icebergs (compared to 3+ days around S Georgia), so it definitely wasn't enough time in Antartica to enjoy the landscapes and the mesmerising beauty of the icebergs and perhaps enjoy more of the wildlife. It would have also been nice to do a landing on the continent. Considering that Antartica is the main goal of most, if not all visitors, this should be what every trip should be focussed around. We (and many other passengers) felt similarly and were disappointed by this one aspect of the trip. I understand that the itinerary is subject to weather conditions, but it also sounded like we were unable to go to the western side of the peninsula due to 'traffic'. I do not wish to sound ungrateful for the experience but I felt it was important that this sentiment is honestly relayed. I hope that this feedback is taken in the spirit that it is intended.
