Celebrity Eclipse Cruise to Antarctica Feb 2020

I have always wanted to go to Antarctica but, like Uluru, had no desire to leave my footprint on this pristine land. And my hubby gets seasick on small ships, so an expedition ship was out. So, Celebrity Eclipse fitted the bill perfectly. You get to cruise in and around Antarctica, covering Drake Passage, Schollart Passage, Paradise Bay, Elephant Island erc, all the biggies, without stopping, landing and footprint contributing. AND IT WAS AWESOME!

The ship is lovely (older but still nice - being refurbed soon). It was not overcrowded (although it was full they said) and whatever time you got to the Solarium Pool (indoors/warm) you could always get a seat. There was heaps of activities, (including glass blowing which was awesome), to do every day. The spa area was great with hot beds and saunas. It was a lovely relaxing start to an awesome cruise.
