Amazing experience aboard Sea Spirit We had wonderful experience on the ship the expedition teams the in house team were very good. This is my second trip there is one thing which can be a bit better. We came to make memories but it would have been nicer if family pics are also clicked as we get those pics professionally. The usb stick that we got appeared like documentary. In our previous trip our photographer did a fabulous job of capturing all members . We do feel like seeing usb stick again and again.My husband being a good photographer himself captured us beautifully. But he was missing most of times . This little aspect will definitely work wonders for all guests participating in this journey which is definitely out of the world. Kind regards Rashmie Kapoor

DO NOT go on this cruise line!! DO NOT go on this cruise line!!! I went in December. Antarctica is amazing but this ship, the crew, and the food are awful. The ship is old and the movies (there is a lot of down time during the Drake Passage) we from the 80's on little little televisions. They don't have any food to snack on throughout the day except a short "tea time" and the snacks are lacking. Their overall food is buffet style and in general poor quality. No activities, not much to do and all the presentations were of poor quality, dull, and just no one seemed to care much.

ANTARCTICA JANUARY 2023 Like others I too was very disappointed that we did not get to our planned destination and would like to make two points: 1. I recall a meeting at which an alternative was discussed, cancel the polar plunge and meet our goal. A show of hands indicated the plungers were a small minority but the expedition leader said the planned plunge would not be cancelled. I understand only 20 people actually went on the plunge. Why didn’t the majority count? 2. On another expedition cruise we have taken I felt that land treks were better handled. Details of the trek conditions and distance were made very clear, and alternative shorter walks were also offered. Trek maps were even included. I am not saying this would have prevented this accident, but at least it recognized that less fit people should have a choice. It would be nice to complete the journey another time but for us it won’t be with Poseidon.

Can I give 6 stars? Can I give 6 stars? I was truly amazed by our Antarctic experience with Poseidon. The team strove to make the Sea Spirit a home away from home, and it felt like it. Everything was so well organized, the cruise program was fantastic and stimulating, the landings let us see so much wildlife and I certainly felt in safe hands with the updates on travel plans and weather conditions. The food deserves a particular mention for its excellence, as does the entire crew on board. An excellent adventure!

I went to the British isles in may… I went to the British isles in may 2020.For me it was an unexpected experience because we visited isles where only nesting birds were living. It was so quite and peacefull.We also discovered marvellous gardens with a huge amount of different plants of all the world. The landings in zodiac were amazing..The staf of the Sea Spirit was very kind.I enjoyed every moment!
