Atlas Ocean Voyages World Traveller Cruise Reviews

Heard excellent reviews about these Atlas cruises, so when it came time to choose a cruise to Antarctica we pulled the trigger with Atlas. Boat is a nice quality. Food was above average and the unlimited cocktails were a nice touch. Additionally, most of the on-board staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond when the ship left dock. Unfortunately, despite all of these positives ...

Last year I started looking for a trip to Antarctica to fulfill a goal of visiting all 7 continents. When I contacted my travel agent about a Viking Expedition she suggested I try Atlas because of the small ship and special pricing being offered. I took her suggestion. While I loved what I saw of Antarctica, I regretted the decision to book with Atlas. My friend and I arrived a few days early ...

We just had one of the worst cruises ever. Our boat was stuck in port in Ushuaia for two days before leaving for the “Cruise of a lifetime”. To Antarctica. We keep being put off we were originally leaving at 6pm on the 24th. We sat there until the 26th. No excursions nothing to occupy our time. The boat we were on Atlas World Traveller had made no alternate plans for us and when kept tell the ...

While our cruise began with a longer stay in Ushuaia than anticipated, the crew and captain more than made up for the delay. There was a problem with the propulsion system so we had to wait for repairs and a Coast Guard inspection. But we were safe and dry and well fed and in a gorgeous place that most do not get the opportunity to explore. Once we left port the Captain did everything he could to ...

I had always wanted to go the 7th continent and of course, see Antarctica, the glaciers, icebergs, natural wildlife and cross the Drake passage! It was a life changing adventure and hard to describe. We had a Drake "lake" passing which was a bonus! The expeditions and crew were fantastic. We saw 4 different types of whales, 3 different types of seals, 3 different types of penguins and several ...

This was our seventh continent to visit. Always had been put off by the cost, but bit the bullet when Atlas offered 2 for 1. We had been close to a decision to use Viking. The ship, crew, and voyage exceeded our expectations. Lucky for us, on a scale of 1 to 10 (worst) the Drake going was a 1 and 2.5 returning. The expeditions were overwhelming visually and animals blew us away. While most ...

About the Reviewer: I’m a 40-something who traveled solo on the Christmas Antarctica Circle cruise from Ushuaia. I’m a seasoned cruiser with over 60 sailings completed but all with major mass market lines such as Norwegian Cruise Line, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, MSC and Carnival. This was my first voyage on a ship smaller than 50,000 tons. The vessel is considered a yacht than a cruise ship and ...

I’ve been on a lot of cruises, mostly Caribbean huge ship types. This was the best cruise I’ve ever been on. We had approx 135 passengers and about the same crew. Everyone was very friendly and professional. Most of the passengers were world travelers so it was a cool crowd and you really got to know almost everyone, which is the part I may have loved the best. Food was good to great but dinner ...

Great price point, good communication before sailing, fantastic ship, professional and friendly staff. Some glitches with shore excursions and the ability to research the excursion options is hampered by a poorly designed website. Veranda cabin is great and our cabin steward was wonderful. Food is close to excellent for all meals. The Word Traveller is practically a brand new ship. The ...

Quick review of Atlas from my views. Ship is excellent, lovely design. Very comfortable cabins. Large balconies. Great bath and best shower ever with body sprays! We did circumnavigation of Svalbard for 11 nights in August. Daytime 24 hours. Expedition staff are quite good, some better than others however. Odd thing is ship Captain and expedition leader are both Russian. We loved the small ...
