Beyond the Antarctic Circle: A Journey Like No Other ❄️🐧

Sailing to Antarctica is an adventure in itself—but crossing the Antarctic Circle? That’s a whole new level of extraordinary! 🌍❄️ This journey takes you deeper into the frozen wilderness, where few travelers have ventured, offering more time with towering glaciers, curious penguins, majestic whales, and breathtaking landscapes that will stay with you forever.

🚢 Aboard the Greg Mortimer, a purpose-built luxury expedition vessel, I embarked on an unforgettable 15-day voyage. From the moment we left Ushuaia, every day was packed with awe-inspiring moments:
✨ Spotting the first icebergs as we neared the South Shetland Islands
🐧 Watching three types of penguins waddle across the ice
🐋 Witnessing humpback whales surfacing just meters away
❄️ Taking the exhilarating polar plunge into icy Antarctic waters
🏔️ Exploring historic huts and pristine, untouched landscapes

The dedicated expedition team ensured every moment was meaningful, and I was lucky to share this experience with fellow adventurers from all over the world. This wasn’t just a trip—it was a life-changing expedition. 💙

Trudy booked her first trip with me back in the 90’s. Fast-forward 30 years and she is married with two teenage daughters.

Right now they are on a family adventure with Intrepid Travel. As it turns out they are the only family on the tour so they are getting a private tour. Says Trudy: “Travelling in a van with the driver and guide. They are very nice. Very Knowledgeable. It’s been cool temperature but we are fine. Hoping for some warmer temps soon in the desert.

We had fun walking Around Casablanca. People are very kind and patient . It’s much quieter during day time he says because of Ramadan. But we were happy about that in Fes Medina because the narrow streets would have been crazy.
We get a new (local) guide for each stop, eg at the ceramics place, at the Medina , at the Hassan II mosque. 🕌
Discovered spiced coffee… like a chai, it coffee .☕️
Girls are great and taking it all in. Then we are playing cards in evening.

Wet and rainy as we drove through the Middle Atlas mountains. Stopped for picnic lunch . Saw monkeys.

We had an amazing walk to a Berber village and tea with a local family. Guide said this local visit is not included in this particular intrepid trip but he decided to do it anyway. We walked along a canyon. Light gorgeous. Scenery beautiful here by the Atlas mtn range
We wouldn’t be able to get this experience on our own.
