Checked Antarctica off my bucket list. Was very disappointed that I didn’t get to see the king penguins. After this 59th cruise we have visited all 7 continents.

The production shows are my favorite. Dancers and singers were awesome.
The presentation by Celia Granger was super informative and funny. Went to everyone of them. Dr Paxton was good also.

The bathroom could use more shelves. Vanity could use some drawers. Room was adequate though.
Ship tip
There’s nothing spectacular about the ship just choose it for the itinerary.
All the excursions were sold out. It took 6 and a half hours to get our tender off the ship. All excursions were booked up by the time we reached the island. I wanted to see the King penguins. That didn’t happen. Was so disappointed!!
We had to hurry to get to our excursions. No problems in the port. Still didn’t see penguins on our excursions. Finally did get to see some jumping beside the pier as we went back to the ship.
Great experience since we had the excursion booked. Had time to eat breakfast and go to the meeting place for our excursion. We were lead off the ship in a group. Shuttled to our excursion bus.
Thanks for sharing your positive review. We visited Antarctica the Infinity cruise before yours and had a great trip and fantastic service! We did book excursions in every port through the cruise ship months before our sail date and were able secure our first choice of trips and see penguins and wildlife up close.
Thanks for your review. Too bad you didn’t make it to Volunteer Point to see the King penguins. Not to be picky but did you step foot on Antarctica? If not, does it really count?
Awesome itinerary. Wonderful that you’ve now visited all the continents. Appreciate your detailed and informative review. Glad you enjoyed your adventure.
