The Arctic cruise review: Unbelievable and magical trip

Destinations: Greenland

Highlights: Arctic Fox, Arctic Hare, Barnacle Goose, Fin Whale, Humpback Whale, Killer Whale, Musk Ox, Polar Bear, Shearwater, Pink-footed Goose, Hiking, Acoustics Workshop

Fantastic trip aboard the Hondius, made so special by the knowledgeable guides who were at our beck and call to answer all our questions, look out for our safety and with a great sense of humour.. i enjoyed the custom of them spreading around to eat at different tables and chat more informally with us. They were first rate. The hospitality staff were the best I have ever encountered. They were so helpful always with a happy smile on their face. I was astonished how quickly they knew our names and made each and everyone of us feel so special . The standard has been set so high I doubt it can be bettered.
