The most memorable moment was kayaking at Charlotte Bay and being surrounded all around by 20+ humpback whales! Truly incredible!

The zodiac cruise at Charlotte Bay where 3 humped back whales played around the zodiacs for ages. They were close and frequently blowing, waving with their fins and going belly up around and under the zodiacs before emerging to say hello. Whilst all this was going on the sky changed from cloudy to very blue, absolutely stunning.

All of it was fantastic. We had a great time exploring Buenos Aires. The tours that you set up for us were well worth it. Dinner at Fogon was to die for. The hotel you booked us at Palladillo was a great choicer in a safe neighborhood. I would not recommend the Tango dancing show/dinner. That was not worth the event or the meal. The rest of what you set up for us would be a definite do again. The UltraMarine ship through Quark was first class all the way. The expedition leaders and team where very knowledgeable. I am not one to think I would have enjoyed lectures or the presentations but I truly learned so much. We were not able to prebook the kayaking or paddle boarding but the weather cooperated so Quark added on additional excursions which were worth doing. The highlight for me were the 2 helicopter rides. Everyone gets the first 15 min ride over glaciers etc. Breath taking. The best was a second heli-landing that we were able to win the lottery and got to actually heli land on the continent. The penguins, seals and whales were abundant but the recommendation to extend the trip to include the Falklands, South Georgia to the Antarctic voyage was where most of the animals were located. We were beyond fortunate with the weather as every day (except sea days) was sunny with little wind. The team kept saying how lucky we were. Icebergs 6 or 7 stories tall and the plunge into the Southern ocean made it a trip that will not be forgotten any time soon. Thank you for all your work

The helicopter crew and Ryan the Expedition Leader deciding they could make the trip of 62 miles each way to the Snow Hill colony and then of course, actually making it there in the wind and snow! Secondly the helicopter sight seeing trip over Hidden Bay - just incredible.

Traveling on the Ultramarine was the most epic and unforgettable experience. The expedition team is top notch and the service on the ship is exceptional. This ship had all the expedition activities you could ask for. We were able to get on zodiacs twice a day and signed up for kayaks as well. Expedition team provided dry suits and guidance through the activities and voyage. Lots of knowledge transfer during the voyage too and enjoyed the learning about birds, seals, whales and penguins. Plenty of food to fuel and cabins were well stocked with general toiletries. Loved the beds and pillows and the stabilizers helped make the ride smoother than expected. All logistics were taken care of by staff, and it was easy to follow. Programs posted daily so you always knew what was going on. Booking through Swoop was seamless, and all information was provided for in the portal. Now Investigating our next voyage to see the Arctic! Ready to go!

Watching the penguins under the guidance of Fabrice was memorable. He understands them in a unique way and shares his knowledge and love of animals so freely.
