Were Swoop right to recommend Quark Expeditions?

Yes

Tell us about Zodiac excursions

Could have been better. Not sure the reason for not proactive venturing it sometimes felt underwhelming

Tell us about the expedition team

Some were very good and made sure everyone on the zodiac got to see what is needed. Others were more in the motion of taking us there and back

Tell us about the Ocean Explorer

It’s a beautiful ship inside and was very impressive. Rooms were excellent with updated amenities and storage.

Something Else?

Food was frankly underwhelming

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

Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?

I now understand the need to protect our wildlife.

With swoop I have no issues except the teaser tour of Helsinki. Whatever made you decide we will be ok to eat fish at every meal is beyond me!!!!
