I will make this a simple review for my end of November/early December 2023 Basecamp trip. From top to bottom every single aspect of the trip was incredible. Pictures and words do not express how amazing my experience was and I have been fortunate to travel quite extensively and have many types of travel experiences. Also, all the staff were above and beyond friendly adding to the family vibe of the trip while doing their job at a 5 star level. The value for money aspect I feel was incredible as well. When people ask me so how was your trip I simply say the most amazing trip of my life and I am glad I chose Oceanwide Expeditions as the company I took the journey with!!!
We had the greatest trip with Oceanwide Expeditions. I honestly did not know what to expect going into the trip and imagined that Antarctica would be just a place to check off the list. I couldn't have been more wrong, and I am already trying to figure out how to go back. I can't speak for any of the other expedition services, but I can say with certainty that you couldn't do it better than Oceanwide. The staff, ship, activities, food, and experience are beyond first class.
The best company, activities and staff ever. The captain also excellent and professional (we had a rough drake passage).
Allthough due to local circumstances we were only able to explore part of South Georgia, we had a great time seeing such diverse and numerous wildlife. The sea days to cross from Ushuaia to South Georgia were quit rough, but the experience on the island was really worth it
Very Amarzing thing in my life to sea antartic wild life. Ship very comfort. Food was excellent. Staff well prepared.
Good travel and good seawatching with a EXTRA STAFF for a seawatcher like me !
I have been very happy to dsicover a lot of new species for me : SNOW PETREL ; ANTARCTIC PETREL, Many Pingouins and ALBATROSS, PRIONS and SKUAS !
Great Thanks to Oceanwide !!
Amazing excursion, a dream came tru!
Best Tour & Staff out of seven Oceanwide Tours! Besides this the other six were excellent too! But being Face to Face with empor chicks for 3 h and landing on an iceberg in Weddell Sea is absolutely outstanding!!!! Further we‘ve had brlliant encounters with Orca & Humpback Next to the ship! All possible Penguins, seals and Albatros to be seen on this Trip. Jumping and Porpoising Penguins. An unforgettable Tour you will have once in your life
I thoroughly enjoyed every last bit of the journey to Antarctica, it was for sure the trip of a life time. The crew were all knowledgeable, fun and focused on keeping us safe and that we had the best time. The vessel Hondius was beautiful and provided all we needed for the trip. I only have good things to say!
This trip would have been adequate except that we did not visit the Prion island albatros colony which was the highlite of the trip, but it was closed for 5 years and we were not told about it. That was a great disapointment. Had they advised us of this, I would choosed another trip. Otherwise this trip was satisfactory.
A wonderfull journey with guides, who had a lot to tell in a very good atmosphere
There are no words to describe the experience. The crew makes you feel at home but at the end of the world in such an amazing and breathless landscape and environment.
Wilderness means everything to me. It has always been my dream to see the wildlife in the REAL wild. Not zoo or sanctuary. By joining this expedition, my dream has finally come true and fulfilled beyond my expectations. With lovely crew members, expedition team and cozy living space and environment on Hondius, everything is just perfect and unforgettable!
The first trip of the year for the Ortelius to the Weddell Sea and we were treated to not only spectacular weather, but so much active wildlife and an expedition team that was second to none. While Oceanwide can't control the weather or animals, they did provide a stellar crew and team that made sure they always under promised and over delivered. This was truly an expedition that will stay with me for the rest of my life. It was low key on the frills and luxury comforts so stay away if you want a cruise with hundreds of other people. This was a trip to make friends, bounce around in zodiacs, hike across the frozen sea and truly experience the wildlife in Antarctica.
