The expedition was superb. The captain and his team, all the expedition team and hotel services were all exemplary. The knowledge of the expedition team was excellent and Eduardo led a great trip for us despite fog in Aberdeen and too much wind at Fair Isle to land.... So many wonderful memories, especially polar bears and walruses. Thank you for the experience and everyone's effort. I will now be saving up for another trip with Oceanwide Expeditions!
