Being part of this expetition cruise was amazing. I felt more then welcome on the Hondius and the staff members were always friendly and made everthing to have us an unforgettable experience. Thanks to everyone who made that happen! The landscape was absolutly breathtaking and the wildlife was stunning. Everyone says it is a once in a lifetime trip, but maybe one day I'm coming back to the Southern Ocean.
Great trip. The Captain was super. The staff and crew were great. I loved the expedition trip and not just hanging out.
Trip of a lifetime. Crew was outstanding, knowledgeable, professional, genuine and passionate about their work. Absolutely amazing. Meals were first class. Would highly recommend this expedition. Thank you.
Amazing trip aboard the m/v Plancius. Special thanks to Michael, Roman, Rick and Lotties, our diving leaders.
Thank you for the most wonderful trip of my life! My cabin was very comfortable and clean with ample space to store clothing and gear. All meals far exceeded expectations with plenty of choices and a wide variety of foods. I would add that the soups were delicious!
The ships staff are the most friendly group of people ever before encountered. It would be unfair to name any particular individual because all interactions with every member included a warm smile and pleasant conversation. The staff consistently goes about their busy day with dedication and pride.
The expedition staff was unparalleled. Each and every member brought a high level of expertise to lectures that were shared with passengers and presented with a personal flair in an interesting manner. Lectures held me rapt from beginning to end. Trips ashore were fascinating.
My plan is to read about future Plancius expeditions and perhaps book an Arctic adventure.
As a kid, I read up on everything I could about the South Pole, then as I got older, I started to read about all the expeditions to Antarctica. Time went by and my interest in the White Continent grew, so much so that I started to look into tours that went there. But my goal was not to just "cruise to Antarctica", but to actually set foot on the continent. Little did I realize that my dreams of doing would be accomplished a few years later. After being postponed for 3 years, 2023 was the year of making the dream come true, and what a dream it turned out to be. Far from anything that I could have imagined or prepared myself for, this expedition on the m/v Plancius became a life changing event. From the amazing staff and crew, to all the many people I met from around the world, we not only traveled to Antarctica, but crossed the circle, then went even further south (68 degrees South!), so my ultimate goal was met. But with all the adventures of the landings we made, seeing all the wildlife (penguins, whales, seals) and landscapes that defy the imagination. The only thing I can say is that this was a trip of a lifetime, and one I will never forget.
The Deep South Tour on Plancius was wonderful. The landscape and wildlife of Antartica is breathtaking and unique. Our guides and ship crew were phantastic (experienced scientists and superb crew).I wish the cook would publish a cook book! It was the best trip of my life. Thank you all so much for this unforgettable experience!!
The crew were wonderful, the places we visited were otherworldly, and the expedition guides were top notch. Highly recommended.
The trip was fantastic. Antarctica is worth a visit and I truly hope it will never be spoiled. The crew on the Hondius were the best. Expedition guides were very knowledgeable and I learned a lot.
This Ross Sea trip was breathtaking beautiful! And we learned a lot during the lectures on board.
Walking on the snow after a zodiac-ride, seeing the historic huts or wildlife, is great. Flying with helicopters over icebergs, fjords and glaciers...wonderful and feeling like 007! We saw many penguins, seals and pods of orca's.
Thank you crew, staff and employees of Ortelius, our ship'family' was unique!
There's just no way how to review this trip. Let's just say that a 5 star rating just doesn't do this trip justice. The staff was great. The guides went to the maximum to let us enjoy as much as the weather allowed us. No effort seemed to much for the team. The breakfast, lunch and diner were exellent. Cabin was very comfortable. All the lectures and knowledge that was shared. The overall welcome feeling aboard the ship. Let's not even start about the scenery. I always thought this would be a once in a lifetime trip, but now that i've been there i know i will be back with Oceanwide one day. It has been worth all the saving and all the travelling to Ushuaia. very very well done!
Absolutely excellent experience the crew and expedition team were superb, experienced, fun, and highly motivated to make the trip the outstanding experience that it was.
It was a fantastic trip, thank you Oceanwide, thank you crew!!
We hebben Groenland en Svalbard bezocht, maar deze reis naar Antarctica zuidpoolcirkel is werkelijk waar onvergetelijk. Dank aan de bemanning en staff van de Ortelius, en dank aan het expeditie team met Alan als expeditieleider. Wat een wonderbaarlijk natuurschoon, laten we zorgen dat dit niet verloren gaat!!!!
A first-class experience with incredible crew, staff, teachers and co-passengers. Not even in my wildest dreams could I have imagined what I saw and experienced when visiting Antarctica. As a seasoned traveler and passionate environmentalist, I was invigorated and joyfully surprised at all moments. The professionalism and hospitality was top notch, and I can't go without giving the dining room and cleaning staff the biggest of props for working their butts off to make us all feel at home the entire time we were on the ship. Can't wait to travel with Oceanwide again!
