Big THANK YOU all POSEIDON Team, thank you Antarctica 2023.
Very finally, and after two years in a row of postponements due to Covid pandemic, we made it from Germany to Ushuaia and embarked MS SEA SPIRIT. Already before, we appreciated outstandingly superior service from POSEIDON, Hamburg, with all the reshuffling next to extra pre -and after cruise activities such as flights and hotel accommodations. Once on bord, seemlessly, excellence in customer centric services made our days to/from Antarctica passing the Drake Passage at "lake" and shake" conditions. MS SEA SPIRIT had been our "safe base" for the coming 10 days. Away from any human settlement, the ship operation is a 24/7 task, brilliantly mastered by the entire ship-crews and expedition teams. The Chef produced miracles in the galley three times a day. Very well planned with no opportunity to visit a grocery store around the corner. On-shore landings and Zodiac cruises had been provided highly professional, fast and safe, at any time. Approximatly 100 guest from different cultures, some in trouble, stated a remarkable example, people can live in peace and is their nature. During the cruise, rich wildlife was around at its best. We stopped counting whales and penguines after a while next to all kind of birds and seals. All together, fond memories are engraved into brains and remembering with great pleasure any time. Last not least, MS SEA SPIRIT stands for a remarkable example what sustainability is about. All parts of the vessel are treated with great care and a prominent attention to detail, in combination with lasting traditions enhancing gracious living. High Five.
