Creator's Key Takeaways

the South Georgia part is really fundamental um and the an artic so I'll better be able to answer that um obviously a little bit later

I wish I'd actually brought my own boots because the boots that I have are much more comfortable um than the ones I've got

the Wi-Fi is pretty good but when I talk to passengers they are a little bit annoyed about the Wi-Fi particularly when you're away for so long

Creator's Tips & Advice

Be extremely flexible with an expedition cruise as ports and schedules can change due to weather.
Order boots much bigger than your normal foot size for warmth and comfort.
Bring your own waterproof trousers and plenty of layers for cold weather.
Bring extra camera batteries and SD cards as cold drains power faster.
