Words just cannot describe how amazing, absolutely stunning and awesome this trip was, from wildlife spectacles nowhere else on the planet to jaw dropping scenery and expedition leader and guides that were professional, friendly and ensured every single person had the very best experience.

There is simply nothing bad to say about this expedition... - the quality of the expedition crew was first rate in terms of qualifications, organization, friendliness and knowledge/skills in their field. safety and education always came first but never at the expense of having fun. - the ships crew was first rate, from the captain to the hotel staff to the catering staff. Got us there & back safely and in comfort, not to mention with full stomachs! - we were kept as busy as we wanted to be, ie, when not doing zodiac tours, camping, snowshoeing, mountaineering, kayaking, etc, we were giving scientific and historical lectures. In short, this voyage not only met my expectations but exceeded them, memories I'll never forget.

A well organised trip, catering for a wide range of ages and peoples abilities. Some very good lectures. Plenty of good food and a nice comprehensive library.

I will make this a simple review for my end of November/early December 2023 Basecamp trip. From top to bottom every single aspect of the trip was incredible. Pictures and words do not express how amazing my experience was and I have been fortunate to travel quite extensively and have many types of travel experiences. Also, all the staff were above and beyond friendly adding to the family vibe of the trip while doing their job at a 5 star level. The value for money aspect I feel was incredible as well. When people ask me so how was your trip I simply say the most amazing trip of my life and I am glad I chose Oceanwide Expeditions as the company I took the journey with!!!

We had the greatest trip with Oceanwide Expeditions. I honestly did not know what to expect going into the trip and imagined that Antarctica would be just a place to check off the list. I couldn't have been more wrong, and I am already trying to figure out how to go back. I can't speak for any of the other expedition services, but I can say with certainty that you couldn't do it better than Oceanwide. The staff, ship, activities, food, and experience are beyond first class.

The best company, activities and staff ever. The captain also excellent and professional (we had a rough drake passage).

Allthough due to local circumstances we were only able to explore part of South Georgia, we had a great time seeing such diverse and numerous wildlife. The sea days to cross from Ushuaia to South Georgia were quit rough, but the experience on the island was really worth it

Very Amarzing thing in my life to sea antartic wild life. Ship very comfort. Food was excellent. Staff well prepared.

Good travel and good seawatching with a EXTRA STAFF for a seawatcher like me ! I have been very happy to dsicover a lot of new species for me : SNOW PETREL ; ANTARCTIC PETREL, Many Pingouins and ALBATROSS, PRIONS and SKUAS ! Great Thanks to Oceanwide !!

Amazing excursion, a dream came tru!

Best Tour & Staff out of seven Oceanwide Tours! Besides this the other six were excellent too! But being Face to Face with empor chicks for 3 h and landing on an iceberg in Weddell Sea is absolutely outstanding!!!! Further we‘ve had brlliant encounters with Orca & Humpback Next to the ship! All possible Penguins, seals and Albatros to be seen on this Trip. Jumping and Porpoising Penguins. An unforgettable Tour you will have once in your life

I thoroughly enjoyed every last bit of the journey to Antarctica, it was for sure the trip of a life time. The crew were all knowledgeable, fun and focused on keeping us safe and that we had the best time. The vessel Hondius was beautiful and provided all we needed for the trip. I only have good things to say!

This trip would have been adequate except that we did not visit the Prion island albatros colony which was the highlite of the trip, but it was closed for 5 years and we were not told about it. That was a great disapointment. Had they advised us of this, I would choosed another trip. Otherwise this trip was satisfactory.

A wonderfull journey with guides, who had a lot to tell in a very good atmosphere

There are no words to describe the experience. The crew makes you feel at home but at the end of the world in such an amazing and breathless landscape and environment.
