A Wonderful Experience

by Valerie Spink

Departure in November 2016

Region: Antarctica

Destinations: South Orkney Islands, Antarctic Peninsula, Falkland Islands, South Georgia

Ship: m/v Plancius

The trip far exceeded our expectations. The staff and crew were professional and knowledgeable. Andrew Bishop and his team took great care of the passengers and ensured that we had the opportunity to land as often as safely possible on the various landing sites. We were particularly pleased that the crew/team cared about the environment and explained the many effects of poor environmental policies and undertakings in their lectures. The hospitality staff and the dining room staff were exceptional. The food was too much and very good. I still want to know how the wait staff knew our names from day 2 of the trip!! Unbelievable. This will be a trip that we will not forget.
