Were Swoop right to recommend Aurora Expeditions?
Yes
Tell us about the expedition team
Absolutely incredible
Tell us about the Paddling
This is for beginners. Paddling is only in Antarctica, not South Georgia. A great experience that isn't too intensive.
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Antarctica?
I forgot to tell Aurora: their website isn't clear. Is hard to find where things need to be uploaded or forms filled. Swoop website is excellent.
Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?
Probably, we will see how in the future
Do you have any recommendations for Swoop, or feedback about the team?
See above.
How prepared and excited for Antarctica did you feel?
Very excited, pretty well prepared. The packing list was not accurate, as walking poles with snow baskets are completely unnecessary as there are plenty on board. 3 thermals are too much, same regarding fleece middle layers.
