Antarctica cruise review: A trip for the ages

Highlights: Antarctic Camping, Adelie Penguin, Chinstrap Penguin, Crabeater Seal, Fin Whale, Gentoo Penguin, Humpback Whale, Leopard Seal, Wandering Albatross, Snow Petrel, South Polar Skua

We loved everything about this trip. The scenery, the animals, everything we saw was nearly indescribable, so magnificent and awe-inspiring. Even though bad weather made some of the planned destinations unavailable, the crew made up for it with extended visits to others. The expedition crew were amazing. So professional and informative, yet personable and available. We got to know several of the crew as they dined with us many times during the trip. The ship and staff were great. The dining staff were so great, so proficient under adverse conditions. The kitchen staff consistently provided some truly spectacular meals. For anyone on the fence about taking a trip like this: GO! You won't regret it!
