Region: Antarctica
Destinations: Antarctic Circle, Antarctic Peninsula, Falkland Islands, South Georgia
Ship: m/v Hondius
Highlights: Shore-Based Walking, Wandering Albatross, Cormorant
This was dream trip of a lifetime. We are very please that we chose the Hondius. The hotel staff were superb , friendly and very helpful , the food was excellent and the facilities appropriate for an expedition ship. The expedition staff, lead by Adam and well supported by Sara, were superb. Their enthusiasm, the range of their knowledge and expertise and their ability to share it made the trip memorable. They should also be complemented on making the excursions and Zodiac trips memorable and enjoyable. We enjoyed it so much that we may consider a trip to the Artic sometime in the future preferably with Oceanwide Expeditions.
