    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.

    A bucket list trip. The problem with something that you have been dreaming of for years is whether it can possibly live up to expectations. This one did, to the extent that I had to pinch myself to believe it was actually happening.

    Not a rest but an expedition - hopping on and off Zodiacs, climbing rocky shores, exploring round icebergs, animal watching, and informative lectures.
