Going to Antarctica had been on my bucket list for a long time, when we realised that we could also dive there it was a dream come true. Antarctica was everything we hoped it would be and more. We were able to go diving, kayaking, overnight camping and walking as well as doing an ocean plunge. There were so many fantastic experiences, such as diving an iceberg, watching the space station go by whilst camping outside, humpwhales, kayaking next to penguins, so many interactions with penguins, sailing down iceberg alley and Lemaire Channel. We were able to dive every day as well as go on land. The diving was a very unique experience and one I never thought possible in the Antarctic. The crew were great and made it a safe and very enjoyable adventure trip to the Antarctica. Thank you to the crew of M/V Plancius for this memorable trip.

Great and fantastic expedition, perfectly organized. Everything was excellent: the crew, the staff, the restaurant, the organiziation. and the guests.

In general I think I am super lucky, nice staff, wonderfual weather and plenty of wild lifes and great landscape to enjoy. Thank you for everything and see you next time! I will definitely be back. ;-)))))

This voyage is unforgettable. The beautiful land- scape with the animal world, especially the adorable though rather smelly Penguins are so cute.... The humour, the very friendly and knowledgeable staff, especially Bill Smiths who is a great speaker of many subject: wildlife, landscape, art, sports etc.!! was a true pleasure. More lectures please with Bill!!! I wish you all a Merry Christmas, health and happiness in 2018.

A great cruise with many activities.

Wirklich perfekte Reise (Spitzbergen-Komplettumrundung inkl. Nordaustland), mit 13 Eisbären, ca. 50 Walrosse usw. Tolle Landungen und Bergsteigungs-Aktivitäten, sehr hoher Aktivitätsgrad. Viele Vögel (Sterntaucher, Dickschnabellummen, Elfenbeinmöwen...). Außerdem gute Vorträge, leckeres Essen und wirklich gute Zodiac-Ausfahrten. In jeder Hin´sicht gab es immer das bestmögliche Reiseprogramm!

Vom Abholen am Flughafen in Longyearbyen bis zur Ankunft in Rejkjavik lief alles wie am Schnürchen. Großes Lob an die Schiffsbesatzung, das Servicepersonal und das Expeditionsteam. War eine ganz tolle Reise!

Upgraded to a superior cabin with 2 bottles of complimentary wine was a great start as was the humpback whales "show" the first evening. Force 10 in the Denmark Strait was quite an experience but was part of the "explorer" feeling. Greenland was bleak and grim with pancake ice just forming, a foretaste of the Arctic winter that was really atmospheric. Katja led a great team of guides and the food was superb.

A real arctic experience!

Ich war mit meinen Sohn Thomas. Die Reise war für mich was besonders, er war ja schon mit in die Antarktis. Man kann diese Reise nur positiv weiter empfehlen. Ich habe eine kleine 20 min Diashow gemacht wie kann ich Euch dies zukommen lassen. Es grüßt aus Bad Wildungen Peter

Brilliant all-round. A superb trip & log. Fantastic photos. Have informed DtW of how excellent it was in every way. Convivial guides / excellent food ( including vegetarian ) / cabin staffing. Many thanks Danke

Hallo liebes Team, Ihr habt einen super Job gemacht. Es war eine tolle Reise und das Tagebuch war das Tüpfelchen auf dem i. Dafür ganz herzlichen Dank Henning

A fantastic trip! Wonderful views, great hikes and mostly absolutely fantastic staff who were kind, considerate, knowledgeable and friendly! I'd totally travel with oceanwide again :) A great experience.

Despite not managing the full circumnavigation, we had a a wonderful and memorable trip. Great to see the Polar bears and Walrus, and all the wildlife and amazing scenery. Kayaking amongst the sea ice was amazing, and seeing the glacier calving incredible. We loved the ship and met some great people. The guides were all great too!!

很高兴能在奥特留斯号上遇到很多好玩的朋友，和遇到那么多幽默的探险队员，当然还有度过了那么完美的一段北极时光。“脚印会消失，但记忆永远会留下。” 我觉得自己以后还会继续选择“船客”（新私享）旅游，更希望以后会再次遇到奥特留斯号的船员和队员。 短短的9天，在我的记忆里留下的全部是笑声和难忘的记忆。谢谢你们！
