    Dear Gobinder, Thanks for taking the time to review our product and your experience. We are sorry to hear that your trip did not live up to your expectations, especially regarding your shared cabin mate. Part of the premises of a shared cabin is that you don’t know who you will be sharing the cabin with, only that it is the same sex. If your cabin mate or situation onboard is problematic we imply our guests to contact our staff and the reception team onboard, as sometimes other solutions can be found. We don’t publicly delve into details about people on our cruises and share any information about them, so we cannot share any details for your specific case. But you are welcome to reach out to us directly if you have further questions. Regards, Albatros Expeditions

    Dear Gabriele, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on your recent Disko Bay voyage with us. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that you were very pleased with the Ocean Albatros. Our itineraries are designed to allow our guests to discover Greenland at a relaxed pace and to have the opportunity to savour both the nature and settlements on the west coast. Perhaps you would like to join us next year in Svalbard where we offer 6 days voyages. You can view these trips on our website at https://albatros-expeditions.com/expeditions/arctic. Thank you for your comments on the lectures delivered onboard, we do offer lectures that cover a variety of topics such as history and Greenlandic culture. Nevertheless, we welcome your feedback and will forward this to our onboard expedition team. We are sorry to hear that you felt overlooked as a solo traveller, we can coordinate between our product department and onboard team to see how we can cater better to solo travellers onboard. Concerning the content of the entertainment system in the cabins, we will forward your comments to the product department. Our entertainment options change on a rotating basis and there may be an opportunity to implement the changes you have so helpfully suggested. On behalf of Albatros Expeditions, we would like to thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on the voyage. Wishing you a pleasant day.
