Everything I wished for!
I was fortunate enough to be able to visit South Georgia with Poseidon Expeditions on their first expedition of the year. I booked Wildfoot Travel, a travel company based in the UK. From the moment I stepped foot on MV Sea Spirit, the hospitality was incredible. Paz was wonderful and her team really did her proud, always polite and caring, truly going above and beyond with any wishes I had. Andrej, the Maitre D was also fantastic, nothing was too much for him and he always served with a smile. The reception team and hotel staff were spectacular, working away in the background and making sure everything was maintained to the highest degree, absolutely no complaints there. The expedition team were amazing, every last one of them, Fabienne, Morgane, Elo, Bea, Steffi, Miriam, Bella, Piet, Junior, Andy, Chad, Dima, Steffan (I really hope I haven't forgotten anyone). I felt respected and always in safe hands, the zodiacs tackled some precarious conditions but I couldn't have wished for a better team to be looking after me. On the boats, the zodiacs and the landings they were all kind, caring and professional. They clearly have a massive passion for these areas, the wildlife and the landscapes and a wish to share these amazing places with us! A fantastic team. And last but not least, our expedition leader - Chris. I will never tire of his announcements and his gentle wake up calls. I actually cannot fault Chris at all, the hard work and dedication to making sure I had the best trip possible was inspiring. South Georgia is truly one of the last true wildernesses, everything about it is awe inspiring, it's madness that these places exist. We were fortunate enough to land at St Andrew's Bay - and it really is mind blowing. 150,000+ pairs of king penguins was beyond words! If you want to visit this spectacular place, look no further than Poseidon Expeditions, you'll have a once in a lifetime experience with this team!
