This expedition exceeded all my expectations. I loved the trip from start to finish. The little surprises along the way made it exciting while the varied programme kept my interest. I have already been sharing the Web links with friends as they are all asking following my Facebook update on our trip. Thank to all the team on the Honduis. You made our holiday!
Wonderful trip. Amazing staff on the boat and the expedition team was absolutely fantastic. We would definitely want go on future trip with OceanWide.
Wonderful staff - friendly, competent and engaging. Terrific food in abundance! Spotless ship. Pristine and gorgeous landscape ! Than you, Oceanwide Expeditions!!!
Wir hatten 10 unvergessliche Tage an Bord der Rembrandt van Rijn und unsere Erwartungen wurden teilweise mehr als erfüllt. Einen besonderen Dank gilt der Crew um Kapitän Hans Joachim und den Guides Jordi und Fritz, welche mit seemännischem Können und sehr fundiertem Wissen stets für neue Eindrücke und Informationen sorgten. Nochmals herzlichen Dank Bettina und Michael
Amazing trip to the high Arctic. Beautiful scenery. The wildlife encounters were truly spectacular, we kept at a sensible distance so they were not disturbed. Zodiac cruises were fun but still had quiet moments just to enjoy natures sounds. Great ship with wonderful and knowledgeable staff. Extraordinary part of the world.
Excellent trip with lots of wildlife and great staff. Highlight: seeing the polar bear on the pack ice and make our ownn landing on the pack ice. Phantastic to receive the trip log afterwards to keep our memories alive!
Fantastic experience
A fantastic trip, well organized down to the last detail, delicious food, fantastic, sweet, professional, knowledgeable staff and crew. Learned, seen and enjoyed a lot. Every day a beautiful day, many thanks to everyone who made this possible.
Viel Eis, viele Tiere und ein engagiertes Expeditions-Team.
many thanks to all crew members for this wonderful experience
We had an amazing and unforgettable journey with highlights without any end. The experience in the pack ice will stay with us forever and seeing polar bears was a dream come true. The sky, the sea, the sound, the smell, the glaciers, the experience will stay with us always.
Amazing trip with an amazing crew! We had wonderful wildlife sightings during our trip. Also, the daily lectures of the guides were very nice and informative (both for. laymens and more experienced passengers). All the other services on the boat were excellent and everyone of the crew was very nice and friendly. The only tip I could think of is grouping the passengers into groups during the hike on svalbard based on preferred hike length. I ended up doing a short hike which was still very nice, but I would rather have hiked with a different group to get some steps in:)
First class in every way!
Oceanwide bewerte ich mit ausgezeichnet. Diamir auf Grund falscher Versprechungen (Fokus Eisbären, Packeis... und Eisbären regelmäßige Sichtung und auch häufig sehr nahe Sichtungen) mit 3-4 Sternen). Leider gab es keinen Shuttlebus von Longyearbyen zum Schiff. Keiner konnte mir sagen wo das Schiff Plancius genau steht. Musste mit einem Anhalter mitfahren, da ich nach 40 Min. Fußmarsch immer noch nicht am Schiff war. Das Essen, die Schiffscrew und das Programm von Oceanwide waren (trotz falschen Versprechungen von Diamir) super!!!! Besser geht es nicht. Habe noch nie so gut gegessen, die Mitarbeiter/-innen auf dem Schiff inkl. Reiseleitung sind super freundlich, kompetent und geben ihr Bestes. Leider waren es nur ca. 7-10(?) junge Gäste und kaum Fotografen. Aber dafür kann keiner was. Die Anzahl der Gäste ist perfekt. Die Ausflüge waren spitze! Die Ehrlichkeit von Oceanwide weiß ich zu schätzen (Pixelbär). Diese Reise werde ich so schnell nicht vergessen. Habe 11.511 Fotos, die ich noch selektieren muss. Bin interessiert mal wieder an so einer Reise teilzunehmen. Allerdings nicht jedes Jahr (mein geringes Budget :-( ).

The 'arctic expedition' was a nice experience, the expedition team was professional and friendly, communicative. There were some issues with our cabin
