Were Swoop right to recommend Aurora?

Yes

Tell us about Zodiac excursions

Very powerful, feel safe at all times. sailing through the ice near the glaciers and hear the popping of the air releasing from the ice was incredible.

Tell us about the expedition team

Excellant team. Howard is an outstanding expedition leader. Heather was my favourite expedition member, very knowledgeable, excellant talker/giving lectures with a very positive outlook on life.

Tell us about the Sylvia Earle

My 2nd time on the Sylvia Earle, it is a great ship, very comfortable, very good hotel staff and excellant food.

Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to The Arctic?

Be prepared for an expedition and to go out on hikes or zodiac cruises. take many layers since it gets cold sitting in the zodiac (average zodiac cruise is 2hrs)

Do you have any recommendations for Swoop, or feedback about the team?

Everything was okay. I replied "no" to Q4-6 since we have already been to the Antarctic and parts of Patagonia

Would you consider another trip to the Arctic with Swoop?
