MYTrip of My Lifetime Travel Bucket List It was an Amazing trip to Antarctica with Poseidon Expeditions Cruise, super excellent expedition team, F&B team and the house keeping team. This was the last continent I been in my lifetime travel bucket list, I will never ever forget this amazing trip.

AUANTARCTICA JANUARY 2023 Like others I too was very disappointed that we did not get to our planned destination and would like to make two points: 1. I recall a meeting at which an alternative was discussed, cancel the polar plunge and meet our goal. A show of hands indicated the plungers were a small minority but the expedition leader said the planned plunge would not be cancelled. I understand only 20 people actually went on the plunge. Why didn’t the majority count? 2. On another expedition cruise we have taken I felt that land treks were better handled. Details of the trek conditions and distance were made very clear, and alternative shorter walks were also offered. Trek maps were even included. I am not saying this would have prevented this accident, but at least it recognized that less fit people should have a choice. It would be nice to complete the journey another time but for us it won’t be with Poseidon.

GBGreat crew great little ship Sea Spirit staff and crew provided a fantastic trip 20 day tour of the Falklands, South Georgia, and the Antarctic Peninsula January 21-27. Every staff from the ship crew, hotel, restaurant and especially the expedition staff did their utmost to give us the best experience possible. Some days we even had three landings or zodiac cruises. Small ship great crew highly recommend. One addition thought Aaron the expedition leader besides leading the trip did his very best to be transparent about why decisions were made and how they were made. I appreciated this extra effort on his part.

GBThis was an outstanding trip This was an outstanding trip! The ship was very well appointed, from the large state rooms to the lounges, dining room, spa, library, and decks. The crew was fantastic—knowledgeable and helpful in so many ways. Activities of camping, kayaking, polar plunge, were great. Excellent food, great emphasis on safety, and the ship was spotless. Small size of 114 is essential!

GBDO NOT go on this cruise line!! DO NOT go on this cruise line!!! I went in December. Antarctica is amazing but this ship, the crew, and the food are awful. The ship is old and the movies (there is a lot of down time during the Drake Passage) we from the 80's on little little televisions. They don't have any food to snack on throughout the day except a short "tea time" and the snacks are lacking. Their overall food is buffet style and in general poor quality. No activities, not much to do and all the presentations were of poor quality, dull, and just no one seemed to care much.
