Good journey but too much time on the ship without activities

Nice trip, but I had the impression that some guests were considered as more important than the others. Some "guides" were not friendly and helpful

This was a once-in-a-lifetime trip to a destination one can only dream of. The dream was realized thanks to the exquisite organisation of Oceanwide. The ship, the crew, everything and everybody went the extra mile to make this journey unforgettable in every aspect. Thank you!

Trip and ship were good, there are concerns. 1) Although passengers were cautioned to be quiet while observing wildlife, at the bear-eating-seal site, a dozen or more guides were on the bow talking and laughing very loudly. 2) Never received a straight answer regarding whether or not we would have access to our luggage on the dock after deboarding. I wanted to know if I could wear waterproof etc. gear on the zodiac but ditch it in my luggage on shore. 3) Some of the guides were unwilling or unable to maneuver the zodiac so both sides could see. Twisting and turning was awkward at best, giving me sore neck and back for duration of journey. 4) Neck-breaking life jackets. Heavy weighting on neck made it difficult to hold head up. Did not seem to be a problem on large/tall people. Maybe a smaller version for shorter people? One size does NOT fit all. Life jacket was one of the major reasons I canceled upcoming Antarctic trip with Oceanwide . 5) Not pertinent directly to ship but...why did you choose a dark background with white lettering on preliminary material about ship and packing? Hard to read and used an unnecessary amount of ink to print it.

We enjoyed every minute of this unique holiday. we saw 6 polar bears, walruses, seals reindeer and numerous birds, including a black kite. All the activities were well regulated, sometimes challenging, and always fulfilled our expectations. The whole crew were exceptional.

Eine Expeditionsreise, die meine Erwartungen voll erfüllt hat. Mitternachtssonne, arktischer Sommer(beginn). Gletscher, arktische Tierwelt. arktische Flora, Packeis, tolles Schiff, ausgezeichnete Guides, hochwertiges Essen, gute Crew und Mannschaft.

Me and some other students from the Arctic center in Groningen got the opportunity to go on this trip at a discount and I feel so grateful. It truly was a one in a lifetime experience, the guides were amazing and we saw so many amazing animals. I also made friends for life.

It was a great trip with beautiful, enthusiastic guides en great service on the ship.

Great and unforgettable experience. Ship best suited for this kind of trip. Crew excellent from waiters and maintenance staff to great guides and Florence as the head of expedition did a wonderful job

TUTTI SUPER

The scale of the surroundings of sea and mountains is both overwhelming and humbling. Nature nearly devoid of humans is wonderful but seeing their scattered remains brings shame. Svalbard heightens the awareness of what humans have been and are still doing to ruin our planet. It hits you especially hard in these beautiful and nearly unspoilt places like Svalbard.

Esperienza emozionante - vero spirito artico - cruise in zodiac e passeggiate artiche sempre piene di sorprese! Guide esperte ed eccellenti e sempre a disposizione. Personale della nave preparato e professionale.

This was definitely one of the best adventures ever. Interresting, exotic, with calm sea, well organized. But most of all it was the GOOD VIBE among the staff which you simply feel. You might say it is professionalism. OK, yes, but you can say when one is just "professional" or pationate. Thank you for this and have safe travels on which I hope to join you again, soon.

Everything was perfect, thank you so much to everyone on board!
