Antarctica 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 ...

My recent cruise to Antarctica Feb 2024 with Silvercloud left a lot to be desired, firstly I chose Silversea because I wanted a safer bigger cruise that had more experience with Antarctica instead of their smaller newer competitors and also how they pride themselves of having 5 dining outlets. (Both to be very wrong of me, seasoned expedition guides basically switch from different companies all ...

My wife and I, both in our 60’s, booked this 14 day cruise from Buenos Aires to Antarctica and were very disappointed. We have over 30 cruises with 10 on Norwegian and the rest mostly on Royal Caribbean, Princess, or Holland America. I usually rate cruises as 5 star as you get what you book and a cruise is usually a good time. However this cruise on the Norwegian Star was overall terrible for ...

Silver Blunder Antarctic EV240128015 – January 2024 For months we had researched The Antarctic, South Georgia, and the Falklands and when we saw the Silversea brochure and marketing, we started liaison with Silversea in Sydney Australia. The senior representative assured us of the quality of their ships, their products, the fine culinary experience, and the strength of the expedition teams so ...

We choose this cruise to save time and experience more of Antarctica. Instead, we were delayed not but weather but by another expedition team waiting to go. Quark expedition was delayed by weather and took our spot leaving Puerto Arenas on the day we were to leave. We were suppose to arrive at our ship Sunday but instead got there Tuesday. Silversea then decided to deviate from our route by not ...

We were the guests on Swan Hellenic's cruise this year and we have been on many other cruises too. We feel compelled to share our recent experience with Swan Hellenic Cruises (SH) and advise against recommending their services to you, particularly those hailing from the USA and Canada. Our disappointment with Swan Hellenic stems from several concerning issues that we believe potential travellers, ...

Celebrity Review Celebrity earned a D- for the travel, logistics, entertainment, and customer service performance for their Antartica cruise relative to other luxury vacation options. The onboarding and off boarding process were a free for all, with near zero support moving heavy luggage. Completely an Unacceptable disaster. The ship was old and needs to be modernized. To be completely ...

My Mum and I choose this cruise to celebrate her 60th Birthday. We choose Hurtigruten because of their long experience in polar sailing and because of their science program. Antarctica itself was a magical experience but we left regretting our choice of cruise line. Hurtigruten markets itself as luxury for a reasonable price, but make no mistake- they are a budget cruise line with a budget product ...

We took the 9 day cruise trip to Antarctica through world navigator. Stateroom was nice and new. Food was decent although the portion is small. Entertainment are quite limited but they do have board games and pokers which customers can use. The cruise members are nice. There are also lectures which you can participated a couple of times a day. But world navigator really disappoints us as we ...

We spent 39 days on the Marina (back to back Miami to Lima and Lima to Buenos Aires) and so happy to finally make it home. The cruise had a few wonderful highlights separated by long boring stretches. We have cruised 20+ times but only our second time with Oceania. The first was in Asia in 2016 and all that could go wrong did. All the regulars told us this was out of norm and that Oceania ...
