Fantastic!

by Lieke van der Woude

Departure in November 2023

It was my long time wish to come to Antarctica, and I tried to temper my expectations. But all expectations were exceeded by far! Which was in no small part due to the excellent crew on board. From expedition to hotel to navigation crew, all were the nicest people with great expertise that made this a truly unforgettable journey! I’m already planning my next trip with Oceanwide ExpeditionsText
