Antarctic Explorer
An amazing experience. Awe inspiring.
Worth every penny!
So many pinch me moments every single day... Penguins are just incredible to see waddling along their penguin highways, spectacular whale watching, stunning icebergs. I'd go again tomorrow! Loved the camping, paddling and polar plunge. Do it all! You won't regret it. Fabulous trip, great bunch of people, delicious food.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
An absolutely amazing trip that surpassed all expectations. The cabin was bigger than expected, the food great, the wildlife plentiful and close, the crew were friendly, organisation was superb and there was so much to do I didn't even get to read my book!
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
Great boat, fantastic experiences, good mix of people
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
A magical adventure amongst the whales, penguins and spectacular ice formations. I would have given this 5 stars but I get terminally seasick and loathe boats so 4 was the best possible really!!
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
An amazing introduction to a stunning continent. A real once-in-a-lifetime trip to somewhere that has to be experienced to be believed.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
An unforgetable trip, can't begin to really describe the Antarctic, it has to be seen to be believed.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
I cannot remember a time when the Antarctic was not at the top of my wish list. This trip not only met all my expectations, it far exceeded them! It is difficult for any review to do both the location and the expedition team justice.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
The whole trip was exceptionally well organised and was up there with my most inspriational trip ever (and I have done a fair bit of travelling!!)) Antarctica is definately a place you should experience a once in a lifetime experience.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
Our trip to the Antarctic Peninsula was simply 'mind-blowing'
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
Wonderful trip. Well worth the effort despite some stressful moments in the beginning. Antarctica is a very special place. Cannot be compared to any other travel experience. So glad I went. Would have given 5 stars but for my experiences prior to and at the beginning of the trip.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
WE had a wonderful experience in the Antarctic and also spending a few days in Ushuaia before our departure on the Clipper Adventurer. Thanks must go to Kim Christie for sorting us out with travel and accommodation when the Ship broke down in December, 2011. Within a few moments of returning Kim rang to check we were home safely and 24 hours later we we rebooked on the February trip.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
An excellent and informative introduction to Antarctica. You could not wish for a better trip.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
This was the most amazing trip. From the first moment we got on the ship to the moment we left we were by turns pampered, well fed and treated to an array of various difference experiences on an untouched continent. I can highly recommend this and with the level of quality of all aspects of this trip I would expect anyone from anywhere to enjoy it.
ANTARCTIC EXPLORER
What can I say?! The most amazing trip, far exceeding the expectations that I had held for a lifetime! Each experience seemed to surpass the last , and I hold the memory in my head each day since returning home.
