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)

All aspects of this trip were… All aspects of this trip were phenomenal! Everyone was constantly on their A-Game and we had a great crew and staff. Expedition team members were fun and knowledgeable while taking care of us and making sure we were safe. We saw incredible things and had an amazing time. I cannot recommend them enough. We look forward to returning for another expedition soon!

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!

The expedition was absolutely amazing… The expedition was absolutely amazing and was made special due to the experience and support of the expedition staff. The service onboard the ship was also excellent.

The expedition team were enthusiastic The expedition team were enthusiastic, flexible, polite, friendly and knowledgeable. Everyone on the ship was there working to make our trip, one of a lifetime. The captain and team went out of their way to give us the best chance of spotting wildlife. The USB slideshow of the trip’s highlights given to every passenger as a parting gift was a lovely touch. Ship M/V “Sea Spirit” was very comfortable and the food was delicious. The team dealt with a very tricky situation (SAS strike) in a calm, professional manner. Keeping everyone informed at all times and being as accommodating as possible
