Words can not express this journey. The wildlife, the scenery, the icebergs, all of Antarctica has left me in a sea of ecstasy! Being there filled me with a joy never before known from travelling! I loved our boat, The Ortelius - it was such a perfect size - it could venture into all the nooks and crannies of The Peninsular that bigger ships were excluded from. I don't like being with large groups so the low number of passengers made being onboard like a party and zodiac tours easy and inclusive. The food was more than excellent with the stewards were such fun and highly efficient. My two berth cabin was spacious and cleaned daily if I wanted. Best of all were all the staff and crew. Everyone was warm and friendly and it felt like being with a family. The expedition leaders were exceptional - their knowledge, delivered through fun and interesting lectures, enhanced the richness of the voyage. Plus they were delightful to be around and gave the ship a great atmosphere. Oceanwide delivered a professional personal Antarctic experience that I will never forget. Thank you everyone.
