Amazing Antarctica

Departure in March 2023

Region: Antarctica

Destinations: Antarctic Peninsula

Ship: m/v Plancius

Highlights: Polar Diving, Antarctic Fur Seal, Adelie Penguin, Arctic Tern, Chinstrap Penguin, Crabeater Seal, Southern Elephant Seal, Gentoo Penguin, Humpback Whale, Leopard Seal, Wandering Albatross, Weddell Seal, Snow Petrel, Grey-headed Albatross, Light-mantled Albatross

I cannot fault the professionalism of the Plancius crew - the ship was terrific, the service five star, the staff were welcoming, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable - no question went unanswered and nothing was too much trouble. The Expedition and Dive Teams were awesome. Our dive briefs were honest and thorough, and the diving did not disappoint. The dive team were highly experienced, safety conscious without being restrictive, charming, helpful and an all round top marks. We had some incredible encounters. Despite some challenging seas and weather, we had the most incredible trip - made easier and much more enjoyable by the crew. I cannot recommend this trip, boat or crew enough. It was absolutely a trip of a lifetime & I wanted to go straight back out and do it all over again. Another adventure is already in the planning. Go if you can.
