The trip was overall a matter of extremes—some things were outstanding and some things really fell short of expectations. Contracting Covid on the ship after avoiding it for over 2.5 years and having 5 vaccinations was a real surprise.

Stepping off our zodiac boat onto Antarctic land for the first time and seeing two chinstrap penguins waddling towards us... We later explored Half Moon Island and saw three types of seals in addition to hundreds of penguins. Talk about a first impression!

Just the first sight of the the icebergs and the entire topography of Antarctica - its surreal.. its etched on my mind and heart forever.. There is some much that I saw and learnt in this trip about Antarctica that no literature can match that.. I will forever cherish these moments .. the penguins, humpback whales, sea lions and the silence too!!

Would say this would be the twice-daily Zodiac excursions revealing the wildlife, habitat, geology, etc. We saw a leopard seal, heard calving glacier, saw avalanche, saw killer whales (orcas).

Having had a rocky start with our first planned ship our G experiences on the MS Expedition was way beyond our expectations. We give the total experience 10/10. The standards on the ship were exceptional from the cleaning staff, the variety and excellence of of food and their ever smiling, genuine staff, the comfort of the dining and entertainment bar. The zodiac team were exceptionally careful in all sorts of weather, the professional, expert team gave us amazing information and planned our days and the itinerary diverted around extreme weather events beautifully.The range of ages, singles and couples were all very relaxed and everyone mixed around and no pretension. All enthusiastic, avid travellers. We were exceptionally lucky with divine weather in the Falklands and South Georgia and a calm Drake. Wonderful snowing days in Antarctica with often sky blue times when on the zodiacs. Saw every wildlife, birds and some humpbacks, super close.

I don't know if I can pick a single moment. The entire trip was wonderful and the staff was great and very knowledgeable in their respective fields. We were able to get farther south of the circle than was anticipated from the beginning and we were able to accomplish all that was expected. There were of course changes in the schedule as Antarctic weather is always changing, but no real negative changes during our trip.

When the ship came upon a krill storm. There were about 80 whales, thousands of birds, and penquins all feeding. It was an amazing sight to witness.

Too many memorable moments to remember! Elephant seals, standing on a sea ice sheet, polar plunge, star gazing during our camping adventure, watching Orcas chase and interact with humpback whales, massive icebergs.... The list could go on and on!

I marked maybe because we like to experience new ventures so as the saying goes "been there, done that:. The highlight was the zodiac cruises to see the icebergs and sea life. The people were a mix of 16 nationalities, all very friendly and interesting. The biggest and most appreciated surprise was the cabin upgrade. The most magical moment was seeing the full moon rise over the mountain top.

Gentoo penguins up on my chest and laps, they were so friendly. I also love the king penguins, so dignified and regal except when they fight over dominance over a partner.
