Fantastic experience

by Anne Gosewehr

Departure in February 2018

Region: Antarctica

Destinations: Antarctic Peninsula

Ship: m/v Ortelius

You have to go there to be able to comprehend this vastness and beauty of Antarctic. Its true what people say, Antarctica leaves a mark in your appreciation of nature. And the expedition team went out of their ways more than once to get the most out of it for everyone of us. Of course, the weather helped. We were very lucky and enjoyed the most splendid weather for this part of the world - mostly just when we were setting our for a zodiac landing or cruise. Thanks to all of you for making this such a dream trip.
