We know how easy it is to fall in love with the idea of curious penguin chicks and sparkling glaciers, but what is it really like to visit Antarctica with Swoop? We decided to let our customers do the talking and share their experiences below.

The boat and zodiac excursions were highlights. Scenery spectacular but not much variety. Unspoilt. We have seen many beautiful landscapes as we are frequent travellers. Penguins cute but smelly---seeing babies was special. Would have liked to see more seals and whales. Company congenial.

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.

I'd never seen a penguin before so the first time I saw penguins on a floating ice berg, sliding off into the sea and cavorting in the ocean was an incredible experience. There were so many other memorable moments on this wildlife / historical / mountainous landscape and ice berg adventure that it is hard to single any out.
