This is part of my solo backpacking trip around the world.

If you have any questions about the tour let me know ☺️

@MyFriendlyPup 4 месяца назад

Price? Did they discuss antarctic treaty?

@DanielVanDyck 4 месяца назад

@@MyFriendlyPupI got a last minute deal for $3,500 I show more about the boat in the first video if you're curious 😊

@DanielVanDyck 4 месяца назад

And they did discuss the treaty, we had lots of really interesting lectures

how long was port to port across the drake passage?

were you scared?

It’s wild that they didn’t stack up and secure furniture

@DanielVanDyck 3 месяца назад

Yeah... Aspects of this cruise were not well organized

@farizhistorylover9419 Месяц назад

I imagine what it would be like if the largest cruise ship in the world, Icon of The Seas, crossed the Drake Strait to go around the world.

Snow in Antarctica who would have thought.. Why so surprised?

@DanielVanDyck 3 месяца назад

Haha, what can I say, seeing snow on a boat made me happy. I bought the ticket last minute and had no idea what to expect ☺️

I just decided to read about Antarctica! If I encounter snow in my reading, I'll just turn the page! 😂

@Hawkeye2001 4 месяца назад

I enjoyed the "Drake Lake" on my southbound journey; however we paid the price on the northbound return. 10-meter waves don't compare to what you were hit with. But, I'd do it all again in a heartbeat.

The snow is crazy!! How fun!! so weird to see snow on a cruise ship! 😆🎉🎉🎉 I would definitely be out there playing in the snow. ⛄️ I would also be sitting at the window watching the waves like you! 😆 I live in tornado alley and I’m always at the window watching the clouds because I love extreme weather. 😆

They should have secured the furniture a little bit better I've been on a cruise ship and I have worked on a tanker Stoke Nelson and it does get lots of waves out there there's many oceans in the ocean is unpredictable

@DanielVanDyck 3 месяца назад

This was the third time this boat went to Antarctica, they're learning I think, painful lessons...

Which ship?

@DanielVanDyck 4 месяца назад

Atlas World Voyager - the first video in the series shows the ship in more detail before the bad weather

@travelwithdebandnick 4 месяца назад

wow id be terrified. and id hate it as would not be able to go out on deck for a cigarette. i know most people would say big deal to that, but it would def put a real damper on our cruise, even though id totally understand why i wouldnt be allowed on deck.

@DanielVanDyck 4 месяца назад

Haha I don't smoke but if I did I'd be stress smoking for sure

@user-nr7jm1so5j 4 месяца назад

No injuries, everyone was safe. The crew seemed unperturbed by the conditions

@kea4464 3 месяца назад

20m waves vs the Atlas World Voyage ship that is on the smaller size of the explorer cruises at 129m long at 10,000 gross tons would be scary ride, next time consider the SB Pursuit ship at 169m long at 23,6150 gross tons, would handle that 20m wave.

@DanielVanDyck 2 месяца назад

Definitely scary...

wonder why they use glassware on cruises to antarctica. wouldn't plastic or wheat plates be safer
