My husband and I had an amazing 23 day journey to the Falklands + South Georgia + Antarctica! A huge part of this success came from the Oceanwide team — the ability of an expedition mindset allowed the team to be flexible and keep our best interests at heart. Whether that was prioritizing the safety of crew member during a med evacuation, or hopping out on the zodiacs earlier than expected because we came across a pod of 20+ orcas (1 of the biggest highlights of the trip!), the values of the staff speak volumes to the experience we had during our voyage. On and off board we had phenomenal service and communication. Everyone was incredibly kind, patient and knowledgable in their areas of expertise. We could not imagine going with another operator and had the trip of a life time! If you’re on the fence about booking, I say go for it!!! You have to experience the magic yourself :)
