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)

I went to the British isles in may… I went to the British isles in may 2020.For me it was an unexpected experience because we visited isles where only nesting birds were living. It was so quite and peacefull.We also discovered marvellous gardens with a huge amount of different plants of all the world. The landings in zodiac were amazing..The staf of the Sea Spirit was very kind.I enjoyed every moment!

This was our third trip on Poseidon This was our third trip on Poseidon. What we like best is the small ship (i.e., fewer passengers that you then get to know better) and the fantastic crew. We also prioritize Poseidon because of the great excursions, usually two per day, out on the zodiacs or on land. Their subject-matter experts are great, covering both natural and human history.

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.

Great 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.
