Helen & Rich - you two are brilliant - this expedition was brilliant!! You 2 have taken me to places that I will never have the chance to visit - so I’m glad I can visit them with you!! I loved seeing the whales & that crazy sea lion - and that glacial snow & the magnificent icebergs!! Thanks so much for taking us along with you ❤️
So nice, the whales and music accompaniment reminded me of a ballet. Thx guys, so amazing. Must have been exhilarating to step your feet on the continent of Anartica😊
What beautiful clear water as you step on Portal Point on the mainland of the continent. That Leopard Seal was massive. I would not want to walk on that snow, very precarious. Lots of walking to do. Funny but these cruises are good for younger folk, but they are usually busy raising families and can’t afford such a cruise.
Thanks for watching Chris. There’s a mixture of ages but I agree it needs a certain level of mobility and fitness to do these kind of expeditions. It’s not for everyone unfortunately.
Thank you so much for watching! Please SUBSCRIBE if you want to see more from this series and we've also got a TON of new, original and absolutely beautiful content coming your way very soon! ❤
Hi Rich ad Helen. Well you are both in an elite group of people, "those who have stood on Antarctic land" Amazing really. You've been to the bottom of the earth and saw beauty only we out here can only imagine for ourselves. So glad to see your diaries as always.
Thanks so much Jeremy. Yes, we feel extremely privileged to have travelled to such an exclusive place. We are forever thankful for these opportunities. 😊
My dream trip...please show me the best way to get there. I'm currently based in GDL, Mexico. I'm Canadian but I like the warm weather. However, I wouldn't mind going over to Antarctica and seeing penguins + Shackleton's ghost +.
You’re much closer in Mexico than we are 😁 Take a look at some expedition cruise lines, like Aurora, Hurtigruten, Silversea etc. Which you chose might depend on your budget - but be warned it’s not cheap whoever you go with (but totally worth it). Thanks for watching 👍
I did a search on Silversea Silver moon and found your channel. Is Silversea the only cruiseline which include shore excursion? What percentage of solo travelers are on Silversea Silvermoon. I am thinking about a European cruise for 24 days next April. Thanks. I subscribed and started watching your videos.
Hello, do you have any information about internet access for email while onboard? Thank you. When I cruised the Arctic circle a few years ago, the cruise line provided a personal ship-email account during the voyage for text only communications. I'm wondering if Aurora provide something similar.
Where''s the Drakes Passage any video made about an Antarctica voyage is incomplete without passing through the Drakes Passage. Sorry guys I give your video a thumbs down, and you started it off so well.
I laughed more than I should have at your “Shackleton” moment and loved your Attenborough commentary on Helen’s penguin walk. Scenery looked stunning.
Haha, glad we made you laugh 🤭
Thanks for watching 👍
You have quickly become my favorite travel vlogger! I hope you two continue to bring us with you on your adventures.
Thank you for watching and your kind comment 😊👍
Ohhh Rich did Helen dirty on the walking footage down the hill… haha “taking a picture of penguin poo”
😂😂😂
Thanks for watching Seth 👍
An amazing video! Thank you! I ahve just booked an expedition for March 2025 and can't wait!
Thank you ☺️
Hope you have an amazing cruise 👍

Regent seven seas also include excursions, as does Viking though there is usually only one per port on Viking.

It was very limited. We had an ‘internet package’ but didn’t manage to access anything when we were in Antarctica.
How hard did the graceful penguin Helen hit you when she saw that footage? 😂
Haha! I survived. Just. :D
Beautiful
Thank you Robin. :)
@@visitwithus Which long lens did you take?
@@RobinH8869 The 100-400. Difficult to get smooth footage though in a Zodiac full of people moving around lol. 😆

Thumbs down? This is a multi part series and the Drake Passage is in part 4!
