From start to finish, their organization was impeccable, ensuring every moment aboard our sturdy ship, with its exceptional hotel team, was filled with excitement and wonder. My favorite moment was witnessing polar bears and walruses against the backdrop of breathtaking landscapes. I have to highlight, the expedition team's deep insights into the region's history and culture enriched our journey profoundly. Their passion for adventure, respect for wildlife, and commitment to climate awareness made the experience unforgettable. I can't wait to embark on another adventure with them. Highly recommended for anyone craving an enriching Arctic experience aboard a ship that felt like home.

We were incredibly excited. We can't name a highlight here, because the trip as a whole was the highlight. The crew members, the hotel staff, the food, the ship, the expeditions. Everything was simply outstanding. The opportunity to load onto ice, watch penguins and seals and these incredible masses of ice. I don't have the words for this event. Unbelievable.

This was a trip of a lifetime and Ocean Albatros was the perfect company to cruise with. Their ship was spotless and the decor was very pleasing. Staff were exceptional and knowledgeable, as well as the Expedition Team. Daily activities included 2 Zodiac and or landings per day and informative lectures. My favorite activity was camping on Antarctica! Food was also varied and delicious.

First of all special thanks to Bruna from PolarTours, she provided a great support during the booking process and before the cruise. The trip itself was amazing from the begining to the end. The ship was so nice, I particularly enjoyed the jacuzzis, sauna and gym. Our room was very comfortable. All crew members were so nice and dedicated (expedition guides, waiters, security, captain...). I higly appreciated the wide variety of food and the quality. We managed (thanks to the wonderful weather) to complete 10 expeditions on 6 days. My favourite location was the andvord bay where we climbed a hill with snowshoes, the view up there was just incredible. We saw so many animals... pingouins of course but also whales, orcas, seals, birds... everyday!

The trip was absolutely amazing! Starting with great support and immediate responses from Bruna for all my doubts. The ship was great, with many nice public spots to relax and enjoy the views, so I didn’t spend a lot of time in the room. The expedition team together with whole hospitality team took excellent care of each participant. 12 days trip was also just enough time to get to Antarctica and enjoy many nice spots. I would suggest to take some postcards with you as you can send it from one of the Antarctica post office for 2USD (cash only) but the shop on the ship doesn’t have postcard.

My recent expedition to Antarctica exceeded all my expectations, showcasing nature's stunning beauty. The unique emerald glaciers and towering mountains, rising 2,000 to 3,000 meters from the ocean, were breathtaking. The contrast of warm sunlight against the icy backdrop created a surreal atmosphere. The wildlife was extraordinary. I was enchanted by playful penguins, humbled by the majesty of whales, and calmed by seals lounging on glaciers. Watching penguins swim alongside our zodiac was exhilarating, and witnessing the experts' dedication to preserving this pristine environment was truly inspiring. Antarctica is a land of peace and science. Each day at the peninsula included six hours of exploration on land and by zodiac. I learned from passionate experts—naturalists, photographers, marine scientists, and more—who enriched our journey with their insights. Their openness made every moment engaging. Our vessel, OCEAN ALBATROS, was impressive, featuring a sauna, gym, and BBQ, along with karaoke nights and cultural activities like tango dancing and dumpling-making. The ship's library offered a wealth of information about Antarctica’s history. This trip was not just about sightseeing; it was about learning and forging new friendships. I returned home with invaluable knowledge and cherished memories. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Bruna Garcia, Travel Specialist at Polartours, for her outstanding guidance in planning my trip. Her support throughout the entire process, from the initial booking to the final preparations for our Antarctic expedition, made everything smooth and enjoyable.
