Memorable parts?
Crossing the Drake Passage on our return home in a force 10 Gale. So exciting. Plus all our Zodiac trips.
Tips?
You need to be reasonably agile to walk up and down the steps to board the Zodiacs and to climb in. Take along a sense of humour and adventure.
Local benefits?
Everyone was advised to make as little impact as possible when we landed. To leave no trace on land or animals.
Overall rating?
My trip was one of the best trips I've had. The organisation,... (more)Gillian Mason

This trip will forever stay in my heart. Incredible. I would go again tomorrow if I got the chance.
(more)Helen Connolly
Fantastic - it's more than a vacation and is so different to anything else I have ever done. South Georgia is an amazing place. The beaches were packed with tens of thousands of penguins and they weren't afraid to come right up to us. The scenery in Antarctica is beautiful. (more)rebecca allcock
Every part of the vacation was memorable including animals, birds, scenery, the ship (Polar Pioneer), fellow travelers and expedition team. (more)Christine Brignoni
From

The whole trip was amazing, but I loved the whales and penguins the most! Go for it! Antarctica is truly special place! Be prepared for the high possibility of rough sea while passing through the Drake! That was really rough on our way back but it was worthy!! (more)Eva Pekarova
There are so many highlights that it is impossible to sensibly list them all. I would say the sheer majesty of the Antarctic landscape stands out along with the
opportunity to be really close to wildlife such as penguins, seabirds and seals. (more)Nigel Wingate
The highlight was the vegan meals. (more)Emma Smith-Bodie
From
US $4,995
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Seeing the interplay between the animals, icebergs, glaciers, sea and sky.
Tips?
First: TAKE THE TRIP TO ANTARCTICA. It is unforgettable.
If Miami is not on a direct route to Buenos Aires, fly there directly.Be sure to bring the right clothing. Being out on the water or a hill is COLD with the wrong clothes. Spend as much time on the bridge of the ship as possible. Go to all of the lectures. Meet new people
Local benefits?
No people to benefit in Antarctica.
However,... (more)Stephen Kohn

Memorable parts?
The highlight of the trip for me was always going to be South Georgia, which has fascinated me for years and entirely lived up to my very high expectations. What a stunningly beautiful place! We were extremely fortunate as we approached the island because there was no cloud cover and we could see the full magnificence of the snowy peaks in all their glory - a rare occurrence apparently. During three whole days around this incredible island, we made a numerous landings and... (more)Roger Bilder

So many highlights - Kayaking among glaciers and around icebergs with humpback whales, penguins and seals. (more)Arlene Weingart
The entire expedition and crew were amazing, but I'd have to say our wedding was the most memorable, although the polar plunge comes in a close second
place, lol! (more)Danny Whiting
Best bits: The close sighting of a pod of Orca attacking a Humpbacked Whale and penguins; The ideal size of the ship and friendliness of the other passengers and crew. (more)Roger Labbatt
From
£10,999
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Stunning Antarctic views, penguin colonies, whales ... Kayaking, swimming in Antarctic Ocean!
Tips?
As the weather in Antarctica is highly unpredictable, it is advisable to have enough travel insurance. There is always a chance of the trip being cancelled
because of adverse weather conditions. There is no refund even if the trip is cancelled.
Local benefits?
Yes
Overall rating?
A lifetime experience (more)KK Chan
From
US $5,999

It was all fantastic. The first visit to a penguin colony was amazing, but the best was probably our visit to Adie Cove. No cruise had been there before and it was named after the lady who ran our cruise. 11 out of 10.... (more)Lawrence Bradley
The whole trip from the time we boarded the ship to disembarkation. The most memorable thing was not getting sea sick the ship is that stable...The best ever.
(more)David Lohan
This was the most incredible vacation - the staff on our ship were so efficient and hospitable, the landings were well managed and offered a diverse range of activities (hiking, sliding down the slopes on our stomachs, seals/penguins/birds - and the occasional whale), fascinating lectures, and a wonderful small ship environment.

Excellent. Trip of a lifetime. (more)Audrey Nice
An absolutely stunning vacation thanks, just magic! The most exciting part was very close encounters with whales :0) ... Rate vacation 9/10, excellent! (more)Sally Hawkins
No words that I can write nor pictures that I can show will ever capture the magic, the feeling and the mood of Antarctica. You simply have to go there for that. It was beyond compare utterly beautiful in every way. (more)David Oates
From
£4,050
excluding flights
Interacting with the wildlife in Antarctica was the most memorable part of the vacation. (more)Robert Pecoraro
All of it was memorable, but if I had to pick it would be my first sight of Antarctica which was at sunrise, wow! And my 30 minute dive with a leopard seal. But it was all amazing. (more)Stacy Valentine
Most memorable was diving around the ice bergs and snorkelling with the leopard seal. Real WOW factor. (more)Judith Bewell
From
US $23,000
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
The sub antarctic islands, wildlife and the icebergs.
Tips?
Prepare for a big sea voyage and lots of time to spare.
Local benefits?
There are no people, but the environment is excellent and getting better as
recovery from last 2 centuries of exploitation has taken place. Nz and Aust
governments should be congratulated on the feral pest controls.
Overall rating?
Up there with the big ones. (more)Robert Mock
