Testimonials

This is the best product in polar travel. It is the perfect balance of luxury and expedition – there’s nothing that comes close to it.

I had no idea how luxurious and comfortable this trip would be. Incredible service and food. Expedition Staff taught us so much, making the trip memorable. It’s clear that they are genuinely excited about the adventure.

I just wanted to let you know that I’ve been getting nothing but GLOWING reports on the voyage from all 11 of our clients. Thank you and your team for doing such a wonderful job.

I crossed the Antarctic Circle, and I don’t think I’ll ever be the same. The ship, the staff, the expedition crew, and the ADVENTURE were all absolutely top-notch. I will absolutely be cruising with Polar Latitudes again!

They kayak guides provided a wonderful, safe and informative kayaking experience. Their soothing confidence helped me really relax and enjoy the ride.

Loved the flexibility of this voyage and the eagerness of all on board to ensure I had the best trip possible!

The staff were amazing. The combination of knowledge, friendliness, competence was quite remarkable. Support staff were 100% great

This has been our 1st smaller ship/expedition experience and we loved every minute. It was so special to sit down with the crew members at mealtime and get to know them, even the Captain mingled with passengers (and washed boots), this is something we have never seen on the big ship cruises.

The expedition staff were amazing.  It’s hard not to mention every single one of them because they all had vast knowledge of their area of expertise. They were all great.

The whole team was outstanding and Hayley is a magnificent leader who inspires everyone to get in & enjoy. Absolutely fantastic!!!

The crew instilled a genuine sense of enthusiasm & passion right from the beginning and I was really impressed by the breadth of knowledge they shared among them. It was great to connect more personally with them over dinner and drinks. Thank you for an incredible experience. I will remember this forever.

Everything exceeded my expectations. All staff and crew were friendly, lovely. They made this trip very personal.

Absolutely exceptional staff at every level. Hayley was the most fantastic tour leader- enthusiastic, terrific communicator and professional in every avenue. Every member of the Expedition staff also contributed to our wonderful experience.

It couldn’t have been more perfect. Everything was “top notch.”

This trip was one of the best trips I have taken. Staff was fabulous, fun, knowledgeable.  We were kept busy with some unique presentations and activities. The zodiac trips were outstanding.

We found the Expedition Team to be outstanding in every way. Friendly, knowledgeable, safety cautious, entertaining. An all around excellent team.

Hebridean Sky is a 5-star experience all the way. The boat was outstanding, as was the friendly and helpful crew. It felt like somebody was there with anything I could have needed; they were at least 2 steps ahead of me at all times

It was truly the experience of a lifetime. Thank you to every single member of the Expedition Team, each one of which was a superb representative of Polar Latitudes.

An outstanding expedition.  …We chose Polar Latitudes because we liked the smaller ship size and adventure options.

There really aren’t enough superlatives to describe our recent voyage. We were blessed with excellent weather and the expedition team ably led by Hayley were efficient and enthusiastic, ensuring we all had the best possible experience.

Just finished a most memorable and epic holiday on the Hebridean Sky! Wonderful expedition crew led by Hayley Shephard, gorgeous weather, every landing achieved and wildlife in abundance. Highly recommend this company, ship, and itinerary.

The kayaking experience was magical. Being eye level with the whales and ice was truly breathtaking.

To sum it all up…it was the best trip we have ever taken!! It was a 10 out of 10!!!

Fun and super-nice passengers, impressive and nimble expedition staff, flawless hotel & catering crew… Polar Latitudes exceeded my high expectations on this bucket-list trip!

Spectacular scenery and service, this is the expedition of a lifetime. Thank you to the staff and crew for making it so incredible. Adventure tourism at its very best.

The expedition team were amazing and made the cruise for us, This together with the fantastic scenery and wildlife makes this a unique destination. Try following in Shackleton and our footsteps and do the trip of a lifetime with Polar Latitudes

There are not enough good things to say about the ship, the expedition team, the crew, the safety, the comfort, and mostly the great adventure that unfolded for us thanks to all of their efforts.

The trip was flawless – absolutely no glitches with hotels or ship operations.  Excellent food. Very friendly and helpful staff, both expedition team and ship staff.  We were astonished at the quality and diversity of backgrounds of the expedition team.

This experience equals and exceeds any of our prior expedition voyages. The ship was beautiful, the hotel staff were wonderful and attentive, the crew kept us safe even in some rough seas, and the expedition staff was simply out of this world.

I’ve been on about six big ship cruises and two river cruises, so when I say this was the BCE (Best Cruise Ever) it’s the highest compliment I can manage.

The Expedition Crew was the best I’ve ever seen. Smart, intelligent, personable, fun people with a passion for their work and it shows through making our experience spectacular.

The expedition staff was AMAZING. They were so kind and had answers to every question. I cannot say enough about all staff.

The things that we saw and experienced on the peninsula will never leave me. This was, hands-down, the best trip I’ve ever been on. I feel moved, inspired, fascinated, awed and incredibly, deeply privileged.

Everything was first rate – Hebridean Sky, Expedition Team, ship staff and crew, dining room and lectures. A wonderful trip, crossing the Antarctic Circle, multiple landing sites and zodiac tours, cooperative weather, great passengers and so much more.

I really enjoyed the meals shared with the staff members. They were all very knowledgeable with great life stories.

We are so impressed with the commitment Polar Latitudes shows by investing in Citizen Science to make Antarctica a better place! For whale science in Antarctica, getting photos and data from Polar Latitudes voyages is a great resource, and we know participants love it too.

I am deeply grateful for the wonderful partnership [with Polar Latitudes] engaging visitors in this environment, fulfilling scientific data gaps in current climate research, and inspiring a new community of Antarctic Ambassadors!

Thank you for helping us get these valuable [atmospheric] observations and sharing our passion for clouds!
