Having went with Oceanwide on an Expedition to Antarctica, I would highly recommend. In fact, we are already booking our Polar Bear/Arctic adventure with the group of people we met onboard the cruise to Antarctica. Starting with the staff, the entire expedition team who led the daily excursions to shore was phenomenal. Each was an incredibly knowledgeable expert who was hyper focused on safety and having the most amount of fun possible. Big shout out to Pippa, King George, and Paolo who made the entire trip for us. The dining team was also incredible going far above and beyond to keep everyone comfortable. Carol was the belle of the ball and we’d sail again just to see her! As far as the trip itself this was truly a once in a lifetime experience. We have been planning this for years and had very high expectations and this expedition, and specifically Oceanwide beat all of our expectations. Antarctica is a magical place. Photos or words simply cannot do it justice. I would highly recommend visiting Antarctica. And if you’re going to go, I would highly recommend booking with Oceanwide.
