Were Swoop right to recommend Aurora Expeditions?
Yes
Tell us about Zodiac excursions
Well organised, excellent briefings and safety, ensured best possible site visits
Tell us about the expedition team
Superb expedition leader and team - highly knowledgeable and engaging
Tell us about the Sylvia Earle
Ship was fantastic - wonderful cabin, excellent lecture facilities (mudroom, decks) and catering
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Antarctica?
I would strongly advise anyone to visit Falkands, South Georgia and Antarctica....and go on a small ship designed for "expeditions" (just like Sylvia Earle)
Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?
While the trip was absolutely fantastic (and the only way to visit the region), it did make me realise that "cruise ship" trips are not for me as a way to reach more accessible regions of the world.....though I would sing the praises of Swoop, Aurora and Sylvia Earle to others !
