    I feel so fortunate that the entire crew and expedition team were not only professional but also deeply passionate about sharing their knowledge. They went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience exploring Antarctica. This has truly been one of the most unforgettable trips of my life. All my respect and heartfelt gratitude to the incredible G-Expedition experts!

    Perfect journey. Not too big group and very friendly staff, most staff who served meals. Cabin is good with window, and quite clean. Food is beyond expectation, with lot of variety. This is one of our memorable trips.
