Overwhelminginly fantastic

by Ellis Jansen

Departure in January 2024

Region: Antarctica

Destinations: South Orkney Islands, Antarctic Peninsula, South Shetland Islands, Falkland Islands, South Georgia

Ship: m/v Plancius

Highlights: Adelie Penguin, Blue Whale, Chinstrap Penguin, Fin Whale, Gentoo Penguin, Humpback Whale, King Penguin, Leopard Seal, Macaroni Penguin, Magellanic Penguin, Minke Whale, Rockhopper Penguin, Wandering Albatross, Weddell Seal, Black-browed Albatross, Snow Petrel, Giant Petrel, Antarctic Shag, Prion, Cormorant, Parasitic Jaeger, Wilson's Storm Petrel, Commerson’s Dolphin, Snowy Sheathbill

This trip has exceeded all our expectations: we had fantastic Arctic weather (though a big rough sea at some days), we saw so much wildlife and the ship, its crew and all the facilities were amazing. Outside it just looked like a decor of an unbelievable wilde life film. Ice bergs everywhere, birds, penguins, whales, seals: they were all there and they were with many. An unforgettable journey, an experience you will never forget. Our expedition leader made all the right choices, our guides were knowing and unbelievably enthusiastic. Yes, these trips are quite expensive, but you forget about that as soon as the ships sails out of Ushuaia....
