Creator's Key Takeaways

the food was a lot better than I that would be all due respect folks yeah yeah no I mean it was it was excellent

the Drake Passage has a reputation for being you know the wildest you know waters in the world and but anyways so I really didn't know what to expect

you really need to be aware that of your different options for sure right and then the other thing that occurred to me I was doing some research the other day for one of our clients that had a real interest in going to Antarctica and some of these trips are 10 days long and others are 21 days long

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Pack in layers and avoid jeans, as they soak up moisture and don't keep you warm.
βœ“Bring a neck gaiter and consider ski goggles for wind and sun protection.
βœ“Use a currency conversion app for onboard purchases, as the currency is Norwegian kroner.
βœ“Be prepared for seasickness on the Drake Passage with patches or wristbands.
βœ“Book expedition ships early, as landings are weather-dependent and not guaranteed.

Fear of seasickness on the Drake Passage β€” Bring seasickness patches or wristbands and be prepared for both calm and rough conditions.
