10/10 Experience

by Katherine Patton

Departure in December 2024

Region: Antarctica

Destinations: Antarctic Peninsula

Ship: m/v Hondius

Highlights: Snowshoeing, Mountaineering, Antarctic Camping, Kayaking, Basecamp, Adelie Penguin, Chinstrap Penguin, Crabeater Seal, Gentoo Penguin, Humpback Whale, Killer Whale, Leopard Seal, Minke Whale, Weddell Seal, Shearwater, Antarctic Shag, Light-mantled Albatross, Antarctic Petrel, Snowy Sheathbill

From departure to return, every step of the way was brilliantly done by the expedition leader (George), expedition team, captain, and ship’s crew. In spite of extremely challenging weather, we were able to get out and experience the incredible landscapes, wildlife, and activities due to the experience and dedication of the Oceanwide team. Kayaking through a sea of icebergs, watching whales feeding while camping on the ice, listening to the glaciers calving while mountaineering… all incredible experiences. The lectures on board and the expertise of the zodiac guides on Antarctic wildlife, history, and other topics made this trip extra special. The passengers came from a wide variety of backgrounds, countries, and ages and made for excellent company on board and off. Even seasickness on the Drake was no match for such an incredible time.Text
