    Just go! It is an amazing experience on a fantastic ship. The crew are really friendly & really look after you, the cabins are comfortable & the food is plentiful, varied & tasty. As for the trip itself, what can I say. The Arctic is an amazing place with great wildlife (yes, we saw numerous polar bears) and the scenery is spectacular. Cannot recommend it highly enough.
