Were Swoop right to recommend Aurora Expeditions?
Yes
Tell us about Zodiac excursions
Zodiac excursions felt very safe as we were very well briefed on safety, yet it still felt like an adventure. The crew were always very accommodating and professional.
Tell us about the expedition team
Loved all the lectures, it would be hard to single out any of the team. We enjoyed Hannah’s story about Steve the expedition dog who ran away. Macho was always very entertaining!
Tell us about the Sylvia Earle
The ship was beautiful and the cabin very clean and comfortable,
Something Else?
It would have been nice to have had a chance to kayak or paddle as a one off, for maybe an afternoon rather than having to sign up and do it on a daily basis
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Antarctica?
Do the polar plunge. We didn’t, and regretted it afterwards!
Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?
Yes. We will look into what products we buy that contain Krill.
