Overall it was a fantastic trip, great credit to the captain for his skills to make the trip very comfortable and making it possible to land in very tricky places. The expedition team was brilliant and handled the whole project precisely and with a lot of commitment. The hotel was great and the food good. The people we met on the trip were an other highlight and some became good friends to go forward. Read the full review

High Summer Antarctic cruises

December and January are the height of the main Antarctic cruise season. Penguin rookeries are heaving with newly hatched chicks while their harried parents flit and scurry around them. In February, the already-plump chicks seem to dominate the rookeries. Whale sightings become more prevalent in the deep blue.
