This 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!

ANTARCTICA 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.

DO 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.

Arctic Experts Arctic Experts! Safe, educational, wonderful! (Only thing two things they should adjust: add a few specialty items to the menu - - jumbo shrimp, etc - - at this pricepoint, the food was a little mediocre; and fix how we lined up for zodiacs - - standing in parkas fully geared for 30 minutes didn't make sense with only 92 passengers- - Franz Josef land trip July 2019)

This was an amazing trip-Adventure of a… This was an amazing trip-Adventure of a lifetime! We had a wonderful time seeing the timeless beauty of Antarctica and the incredible animals which inhabit it. The guides were very knowledgeable and excited to share it with us. The crew members were all very friendly and accommodating. The onboard restaurant was awesome. There was a large variety of expertly prepared food choices served by an amazing wait staff. The Sea Spirit was clean, modern and comfortable. The whole package was well worth the money spent.
