When the Minke whale swam under our kayak, and then stopped in the center of our grouped kayaks among the broken ice, and proceeded to blow snot at a few of us, 4 times, while poking the tip if his mouth out of the water at us….lasting at least 2 full minutes…then gliding past me underwater (about 1 m) and looking me straight in the eye…..I couldn’t breathe!!

Everything to do with the animals, especially being able to watch the interactions of all the different species sharing the same space.

The general itinerary was great, but we found the extra activities such as kayaking and camping to be the most memorable. I liked the idea of the closed group for kayaking since it did seem to take a while for people to get comfortable, and I could not imagine having to repeat that process every outing. The scenery kayaking through some of the harbors seemed out of this world. We also saw orcas on multiple occasions with the pod coming right up to the ship. One pod was even hunting a seal. It was all very exciting!

The trip was well organized. For me the highlight was crossing the Antarctic circle. Unbelievable landscapes and wild life. The biggest surprise was the hitting of the iceberg "a Titanic event".

My best memories are of paddling in the serenity of a cove with penguins swimming nearby and beautiful icebergs around us. Another was the afternoon in the zodiac when we had dozens of whales around us. A couple came within 20 ft of us! The scenery was stunning. Someone said it was like an art gallery. Nature’s Art Gallery.

Several come to mind - first sighting of a massive berg - size of a multi-storey car park (the visible bit) as we left South Georgia - multiple Humpback whales (15-20) surrounding our zodiac for best part of an hour - Orca pod systematically hunting and drowning a fin whale - penguins galore on S Georgia

Amazing views of landscapes in places that you feel like no one has ever been. Icebergs, penguins, and whales that would show up at any given moment.

We were fortunate to have Loli (Lolly) as our Naturalist and Zodiac driver for an incredible encounter with Humbacks. She was super informative, and was as excited as we were to see them. She was helping out on the boat for a couple of weeks but also was a Swoop employee as well. She made sure that we (Craig and Candice) were also sorted out on our flights when we had a delay. Everyone on the boat wanted to have her as their driver because she was so fun and pleasant to be with.

No surprises - except relatively quiet Drake Passage. Trip met all expectations in terms of wildlife, scenery and history. Staff and guides excellent. Fellow travelers largely as expected. Only downsides were day lost with cancelled flight, and inability to access the Weddell Sea.

The whole trip was so memorable it's hard to pick the most memorable. But seeing penguins upclose and whales was unbelievable experience. One day we were seeing about 10 whales when in our zodiac. Also would like to share what a deal it was to be included in the Photo group. Totally worth every penny. We got to go out first and stay out later, and the guides were fantastic even if just using your iphone camera!!

Cruising iceberg alley and getting up close and personal with the seals and penguins there. Lots of memorable moments crossing the "dreaded Drake." We saw four or five orcas frolicking alongside the ship on our last night in Antarctica. Really a great way to end.
