Jonge kinderen horen niet op een expeditie schip.

Wij hebben een cruise gedaan afgelopen juli naar Spitsbergen. Er was ons verteld dat er een grote groep Chinezen op het schip zouden zijn en of we daar problemen mee hadden. Nee dat hadden wij niet. Er was ons helaas niet verteld dat er ook kinderen aan boord zouden zijn in de leeftijd van ongeveer 7 - 14 jaar. Dit was niet leuk. Deze kinderen renden rond en schreeuwden naar elkaar in hun spel. Dit is allemaal heel begrijpelijk als je als kind vastzit op een expeditie schip. We konden niet genieten van de lounge met een kopje koffie en dan van het uitzicht genieten. De ouders werd gevraagd om beter op hun kinderen te letten, maar ook dit gebeurde niet. Het was zelfs zo dat op een gegeven moment een kind over de reling ging hangen. Gelukkig was de crew er snel bij. We zaten veel op de boot vanwege slechte weersomstandigheden waardoor we niet altijd met de zodiac weg konden. Hier kan de maatschappij uiteraard niets aan doen. Maar dan moet je het wel van de rust en het genieten in de lounge hebben. Gelukkig hebben we wel ijsberen gezien.

Amazing Svalbard
My main intention was to see the ice sea, but I've seen much more. Places like Alkefjellet It can not be imagined. The glaciers...oh my god. This is a one time in a Life travel

Once in a lifetime
Gorgeous scenery, beloved expedition team and crew, just an all around amazing time for both lifelong learners and those just looking for an adventure. Halfway through our trip, the crew on board began to learn our names and vice versa. Just simply a wonderful experience.

Amazing Svalbard!

I’ve just had the most amazing 9 day trip around Svalbard with Oceanwide. We had great weather with very little arctic fog and wall to wall sunshine and light winds. We saw 6 polar bears; 1 on the sea ice and 5 on land. We also saw a blue whale, lots of Svalbard reindeer, walrus, arctic fox and so many different seabirds. I especially loved the puffins and little auks, but the Brunnich guillemot cliffs were just awesome. Seeing 6 polar bears was just incredible.

Our Plancius Experience
We had an excellent cruise. The Expedition Team and all the boat crew & staff were very good - knowledgeable and friendly and provided a very good service. The food in the dining room was very good. The drinks in the bar were reasonably priced. Our cabin was comfortable. The 2 areas where we feel there could be improvements are: 1. The explanation of how to connect to the boat wi-if - we needed to ask Alex for his help and he was great. Without him we would not have been able to use the wi-if effectively. 2. We thought the distribution of the final slide show could have been better planned.

Not really sure what to expect, the trip blew our mind. Sceneries were lovely, wildlife beautiful and life on the ship excellent. We would love to see more of the Arctic and Antarctic!

What a trip!
This expedition had it all - breathtaking natural landscapes, wonderful wildlife, very comfortable expedition boat & a tremendous crew both in terms of the expedition leader Christophe & his team of guides & the whole crew aboard MV Plancius. It was a delight from start to finish.
