Utterly superb

by Christine Hofmeyr

Departure in March 2019

Region: Antarctica

Destinations: Antarctic Peninsula

Ship: m/v Plancius

The team and the trip was magnificent. The expedition leader and guides were experts in their fields while also being good communicators. The programme for each day was carefully thought out, with excellent outings interspersed with fascinating lectures. The viewings of whales, seals, birds and penguins was spectacular. The crew were relaxed and professional while the food was entirely scrumptious. In all, a magnificent experience.
