10+ Cruises • Age 60s

I have cruised and traveled all over the world for 40 yrs. Crystal, Seabourn, Viking, etc. My Rating: The Flora Ship 6 out of 10. The crew 9 out 10. The food 5 out 10. Regular cabin with balcony, 4 out 10. The excursions and what we actually experienced 2 out 10. Excursions were the MAJOR disappointment of the trip. Considering the time, energy and money expended on ...

Lindblad & National Geographic excursions provide a dependable and high quality experience. Their knowledgeable staff are excellent at informing guests of what they will, and have encountered, and are always encouraging us to ask questions. We had several excursions captained by native people who took us close to Gray whales in the Magdalena Bay. We witnessed whales literally swimming a few ...

I had never been on a cruise and am delighted that the Lindblad/NatGeo trip on Seabird was my first. I could not have asked for a better experience. Everyone who worked on the cruise was amazing. Each person made me feel like I was the most important person on the boat. The food was like eating at a five star restaurant. The outings, which were included were great! I almost got to pat a gray whale ...

I found the round trip disappointing. The first 4 days (Punta Arenas to Ushuaia) are beautiful because of the route. The second part (Ushuaia-Punta Arenas), two days at anker in a bay and almost a full night cruising the channel in front of Ushuaia. The crew of the ship is really good, especially the ones that take care of the rooms and the bar. The restaurant staff is over the top in ...

We did the 2 day pre-cruise and 1 night post cruise stay at the JW Marriott in Quito. Our experience upon arrival at the Quito airport through being dropped off at the end of the trip was outstanding-taken care of every step of the way! We enjoyed a tour of Quito and visited the equator. Meals were included. There was a charter flight to take us to the Galapagos from Quito. The ship, ...

We are just back from our breathtaking trip with this amazing company and ship from Antarctica. The Maturalists and the whole Crew were kind, friendly and helpful. We enjoyed every moment. The cabins are very comfortable and well organized. Clean and you get a water bottle so nobody waste plastic. The base camp is easy to get in and off the ship for the excursions. The polar plunge ...

Oh My God, what a trip. This was our first time on a Lindblad expedition and definitely will not be our last. I cannot say enough good things about our trip to Antarctica on the National Geographic Resolution. A top notch ship with a top notch crew and staff. The ship was out of this world with comfortable accommodations, delicious food, and very educational excursions and lectures. We ...

Review for a Antarctica Cruise on Viking Octantis

Going to Antarctica was a lifelong dream, and when I saw there was a South Georgia itinerary, we decided - "Let's go for it". Definitely a once in a lifetime expedition for us as we're getting older. Although we are well warned, anything can happen on an expedition cruise, and before you make a $60,000 commitment (included Patagonia extension and Viking trip insurance, + room upgrade), I ...

Excellent ship and cruise to Antarctica

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

Outstanding ship and crew with exceptional service and food quality. Safety was a top concern for the crew assisting on Zodiac landings with plenty of crew members ready to guide and assist each participant in getting on and off the Zodiacs safely. The staterooms were large and comfortable with large showers and floor to ceiling windows that opened by pressing a button to lower the top half of the ...
