The crew and staff aboard the Plancius helped make the holiday even more enjoyable. Even though we experienced rough winds, everything was done to make sure we experienced as much as possible, and the zodiac ride amongst the pack ice was wonderful and standing on the pack ice was amazing. We managed to see polar bears, walrus, reindeer, arctic fox, minke, fin and humpback wahles, and many bord species. A truly wonderful trip.
