Once in a lifetime memorable trip. The Oceanwide expedition staff was excellent and kept all the passengers informed of daily activities as well as provide seminars and presentations on whales, seals, penguins, and Antarctica wildlife. Each staff member was easily approachable to ask questions. The zodiac tours and landings on the peninsula and the continent were excellent and safety of all was number one! The scenery and the incredible wildlife was just spectacular. The meals on board were excellent... you felt like you were in a 5 star restaurant for breakfast, lunch, and supper and served by a fantastic set of waiters and waitresses. And if this was not enough, the people you met from various parts of world were friendly and enjoyable to have fun with when not engaged in other activities. If you want to enjoy a once in a lifetime vacation, strongly urge you to take this trip and book with a very experienced Oceanwide Expeditions!
