Any single room options please also how difficult is dis embarking from ship at highlight points I have both knees and 1 hip replaced I do not need a cane or mobility aid just can't bend to squat down so getting in and zodiacs unless large ones may be difficult

There are no single cabins on the ship, however you can pay extra to have a private cabin. Please note that this is calculated based on the original cabin type you choose to make private, e.g. Main Deck Triple , Upper Deck Obstructed View Triple, Lower Deck Triple, Lower Deck Twin, Main Deck Porthole Twin, Main Deck Window Twin, Upper Deck Twin / Superior, Deluxe Twin, Suite Double and Owner's Suite Double. This trip is assigned a Physical Rating of 2. It is accessible to most fitness levels and for those able to do extended walks and light hiking on various terrain. It is important to note that for landings in Antarctica we use Zodiacs and wet beach landings in what sometimes can be extreme environments. This will require you to be able to safely navigate ice and snow on uneven ground, to lift your leg over the side of a Zodiac and push yourself up, walk on wet, rocky beaches and stand throughout the landing with no place to sit. Our expedition team is there to assist you if needed but having good mobility is important for your safety and enjoyment. Please also note that the G Expedition does not have an elevator and thus staircases must be used to move between decks, and depending on the weather the ship can sometimes find itself navigating rough and choppy sea conditions.

What documentation is required for COVID-19 precautions on the tour?

All passengers, staff, and crew must be fully vaccinated as per the COVID-19 vaccination requirements, including a certificate showing the final dose was given at least 14 days before departure.

What is the process for upgrading my room without making any cancellation and rebooking?

There is no more availability for a cabin upgrade as the space is full.

Can I opt for optional activities like kayaking during my tour?

Kayaking and other extra activities are currently sold out, but you can be added to the waitlist.

What are the age requirements for joining the expedition?

The minimum age for our expeditions is 10 years old.

Can you tell me about any pre and post accommodation options?

Zodiac outings excellent. So much wildlife to see. Worth the extra days and money to cross into the polar circle.

The communication from booking all the way to departure was excellent. Questions were answered in a timely manner. The Quest for the Antarctic Circle trip was life changing and sooo worth it.

We are quite disappointed with G Adventures and Carlos in particular. He gave us a quote and a holding date. When we went to pay before the holding date, the link was broken. When we questioned them about it, they reported they had withdrew the offer and said the price had gone up almost $1000US extra per person. Very dishonest and not impressed with the service at all. If a hold was given, it should be honoured.Show more

Went on the Quest for the Antarctic Circle in February. Antarctica was way more awesome than I could ever have imagined. The Expedition Crew were amazing! Our leader was awesome!! Thank you Jonathon!! So much love and enthusiasm for what they do. The crew, the Ship, the food, our housekeeping boy were all equally amazing. Did I mention the food!!! Yumm!! And you can't beat 'Captain Push Push' for trying to take you where no man has been before!! I'm off to the Arctic in 28 days same ship 'Expedition' some of the same crew! Can't wait!!
