Everything I'd hoped for

by Phil Woollen

Departure in January 2024

Region: Antarctica

Destinations: Antarctic Peninsula

Ship: m/v Plancius

Highlights: Birding

I'd been planning this trip since 1982 when I should have been going down to join the British Antarctic Survey. Events in the Falklands stopped that but I've been nurturing a wish to visit this stunning environment ever since and since my retirement I started planning. I wasn't disappointed the trip on the Plancius was everything I'd hope for and more. Stunning landscapes, fabulous wildlife, fantastic crew and guides, excellent food and a great group of like minded passengers. I'm already thinking about my next trip!
