Sailing the Great Bear Rainforest - kayaking remote fjords, enjoying close encounters with grizzlies and watching the sun set over the pristine wilderness of British Columbia's Pacific Coast

9

Antarctica: everything, from the dramatic scenery, the immense icebergs, the fascinating history of exploration, the endearingly comical penguins and other amazing wildlife, to the invigorating polar plunge, the great company on board and the enthusiasm and knowledge of the expedition team
