We have just returned from the most amazing adventure in Antarctica aboard MV Plancius. The crew and expedition leaders were fantastic and ensured we had a safe, exciting and informative time in very comfortable surroundings. It was great opportunity to see wildlife up close and get ashore on the icy continent. Most days we undertook two main activities (a landing or a zodiac cruise) which was supplemented during the trip with half day sessions of kayaking and mountaineering plus a night's camping under the starry sky (all included in the cost). Thanks to everybody who created such a great atmosphere, shared their wealth of knowledge and made this adventure possible. We are already looking to book our next trip!
