Antarctic Peninsula + Easter Island
Luxury Expedition Ship Silver Explorer
Loved Easter Island and Antarctica. Would definitely recommend spending at least 4 days on Easter Isle with private guide as there is so much to see. LATAM Air was wonderful.
Silversea did an outstanding job with ship accommodations, food, service, lectures, and pre-cruise hotel. The twice daily Zodiac trips to hike on the glaciers and view penguins and other wildlife were incredible! Scenery was breathtaking. My only suggestion for future travelers would be to take hiking poles. ( I think this was mentioned in the literature; however we did not have them and wished we would have taken them.)
I would give the staff on the ship an A+! Everyone was so courteous and helpful, Our butler and stateroom attendant were outstanding and definitely spoiled us. Other favorite people included the Restaurant Manager and Head Chef. Everyone knew our names and treated us like very special guests!
Naturalist guides did a great job of keeping us informed.
Olivia and Sarah did an outstanding job of helping us plan our trip. No detail was too small and they kept us informed every step of the way. They always responded promptly to our e-mails and made sure we were well-informed and well-prepared for our journey. Expedition Trips is very fortunate to have these two ladies on their staff. It was such a pleasure working with them.

Patagonian Explorer
Expedition Ship Ventus Australis
The scenery and animals were INCREDIBLE. This was our first cruise and we chose this trip because we wanted to see things that we couldn't if we were traveling by land. The glaciers, the penguins, the albatross, Cape Horn(!) and the constantly changing views out the window all stand out. Returning to the Zodiacs after walking through a subantarctic forest and being greeted by the bartender who was serving whiskey and hot chocolate was a nice touch!

Patagonia Expedition
Luxury Expedition Ship Le Soleal
Most Memorable – Hiking in Patagonia during the spring with all the wild flowers in bloom. Also, landing on Cape Horn and standing at the very end of the South American point looking out to sea. Cruise staff were wonderful. ExpeditionTrips gave me recommendations on taxi service to set up for my arrival into Santiago. Also reached out to cruise company when I found out my flight was delayed.

Patagonia, Chilean Fjords & Argentina's Staten Island
Luxury Expedition Ship National Geographic Explorer
The trip was very interesting much of it unlike anywhere I have been - I did not have too many expectations, though I thought the country would be wild, and it lived up to that in spades! [The most memorable parts were] the temperate rain forest on Chiloe Island National Park, Pulamin Nature Sanctuary, spectacular views of the fjords and glaciers, incredible winds over wild moorland inhabited by vaious types of llama, visiting Staten Island and seeing large flocks of birds, Magellan penguins as well as sealions close up. As ever ExpedtionTrips' service was excellent and delivered in a warm, friendly way.
