Indescribable trip. Everything was perfect from size of cabin to every excursion. The staff/crew on the boat were fabulous, the boat was great, beds comfortable with great doonas, the excursions and landings were amazing, the food was delicious. The whole trip was so much better than I ever could have anticipated. I would highly recommend this trip.

The Cruise was very successful with excellent weather enabling us to see the superb landscape and wildlife of Antarctica at its best . We were lucky to be able to cruise the LeMaire Passage being only the second ship to do this during the Summer 2018/19 and to be able to see Nepune's Window Beach on Deception Island which our Zodiac driver had only seen three times in ten years in the Antarctic. The ship Ocean Atlantic was very comfortable and the service and food of a very high standard. The lectures were delivered by highly qualified lecturers resulting in a very enjoyable and well organised visit to the most remote part of the World

The ten day cruise was an excellent value with the eight Zodiac boat excursions included in the price. Our Vegan Antarctica group appreciated having our own separate dining room with delicious cruelty-free food choices. The expedition guides were very professional and knowledgeable. The accommodations were very basic and old. The cabin was the smallest and least comfortable of any ship I have been on. However, the magnificence of Antarctica was worth it!

Antarctica was absolutely magical and I would happily recommend the trip to everyone who is interested! We had good contact with a Chimu representative initially, and received a great deal when booking. Unfortunately, the email of our representative was hacked, and we were victims of fraud. We lost a LOT of money, and although we spoke to the director, we were unable to receive a refund of the money. We ended up paying 1/2 of the final payment again, and that made the trip more expensive than we anticipated. That being said, it was the trip of a lifetime and I am happy we continued forward with the trip.
