Region: Arctic

Destinations: Fair Isle, Svalbard, Jan Mayen

Ship: m/v Hondius

Highlights: Polar Bear, Birding

Kaum an Bord habe ich mich schon irgendwie wie zu Hause gefühlt. Die komplette Crew hat mir den zehntägigen Aufenthalt sehr angenehm gemacht, und das gilt für alle, egal ob Expeditionsteam, Servicepersonal (Restaurant, Kabinenservice, Rezeption) oder die sonstige Crew. Auch wenn wetterbedingt Anlandungen ausfielen, war es für mich eine schöne, interessante und erholsame Expeditions-Kreuzfahrt. Höhepunkte waren natürlich die Eisbären und am nächsten Abend das Barbeque mitten im Packeis - total verrückt, aber genial.
