Every day on the Antarctica peninsula with Oceanwide was a dream. Everything was organized well. Our expedition leader Sara was positive and chipper and handled everything with patience and a smile. The trip was superlative after superlative. The activités fun, thé lectures interesting,, the rooms a good size and clean, the food delicious but the real star is Antarctica and it is spectacular. It’s so pristine and to see and hear the wildlife so close is amazing. Everyone on the trip is smiling and happy because they feel very lucky to enjoy such a unique experience. A special thank you to Sara, Eddie, Adam and Bill.
