Magnificent Expedition!
Fantastic expedition to the Arctic via Svalbard! Sara Jenner is the best expedition leader and the entire expedition crew made the trip such an amazing experience. The weather is unpredictable and so are the wildlife but you can rest assured that the expedition will be maximized. We were able to circumvent Svalbard and saw all the major wildlife you'd hope to see, including polar bears, beluga whales, and baby arctic foxes! Highly recommend and can't wait for my next expedition with Oceanwide!

Hondius Summersolstice voyage around Svalbard

Overall an excellent voyage: A brandnew ship, good hotel and restaurant services, well qualified guides and excursion staff. A good service to provide all passengers with 100 MB internet capacity. However the instruction how to manage one's telephone could be improved. My 100 MB was gone in 5 minutes.

Arctic Adventure June 2023
We joined the m/v Plancius for a week's voyage around the Svalbard fjords on Thursday 23 June 2023. From the point at which we were met by Sasha at Longyearbyen airport to final zodiak ride back to the harbour at Longyearbyen we were looked after incredibly well. All the staff were very friendly, courteous and helpful. Philip, the person with lead responsibility, working in close partnership with the captain and guides, put our safety and well-being first. This meant that some adjustments had to be made to the planned itinerary to take account of weather conditions, in particular, fog on our first full day and also the extent of the pack ice as we journeyed further north. Each evening Philip gave a recap on the day and then 2 or 3 of the guides would give a short presentation on a topic. These were both informative and enjoyable to listen to. The food was excellent, with plenty of choice and lots of fresh fruit, salad and vegetables. The menu was changed every day. The cabins were comfortable and cleaned daily. We returned home with lots of wonderful memories of our experiences, the people, wildlife and magical Arctic scenery.

Spitsbergen
My second trip with Oceanside, Plancius was a great ship for the Arctic and pack ice, crew did a great job finding our 1st polar bear and providing a great experience in the ice. Guides and hotel staff did a great job very much enjoyed the trip and the opportunity to meet new folks from many countries with similar interests.

The expedition leader, Phillip, was really great, as were all the guides. My group kayaked every day with Alexis, who took us to wonderful places and was very knowledgeable. The boat accommodations, the food, the entire staff were wonderful.

The Arctic cruise exceeded all expectations. The ship, crew and guides were wonderful, and everyone worked hard to make sure we got to see as much wildlife as we could and kept everyone safe and comfortable. I would highly recommend this adventure.

From Aberdeen to Arctic

This expedition exceeded all our expectations. We went to experience the Arctic and that's what we did. The pack ice, views, wildlife ...all wonderful. Fair Isle was uncharacteristically hot in the British heat wave - the puffins and skuas on form. Jan Mayen was experienced as it should be - wet and wild. The pack ice was just stunning - so inspirational for art work and Svalbard - wow - field sketching at 2am in the morning - it just had to be done! The landings were all exciting and to see polar bears, whales, walruses - brilliant. The blue fulmars accompanied us in the north and are now a favourite - little albatrosses of the north. The ship, staff, lectures - all splendid and the food was wonderful! Thank you for the most amazing experience - we'll be back!
