Can't say enough about this trip. The destination was better than I could have imagine. But the crew and staff were world-class experts, adventurers - and were also fantastic human beings on top of it all. Sara's energy and efforts to make the trip as amazing as possible were unparalleled. Adam (expedition), Adam (kayaking), Bill (scottsman), Felicity (marine biologist), Shona (doctor), Barni (icelandic viking), Robin and Andy (mountaineers) - and others were fascinating to meet, hear their stories, learn from their experience. The crew were incredibly warm and friendly and helpful as well.
