We were due to travel to Antarctica this Saturday on the Silversea Silver Cloud (booked in December 2020!). We cancelled yesterday due to family illness and are hoping to rebook a cruise for next year.
We chose this particular cruise as it included both the Falklands and South Georgia. Silversea do not include the Falklands in January 2024 unless you take the Endeavour, which is double the price of the equivalent cruise we were going to take. There is a Silver Cloud cruise that we are looking at that dos not include the Falklands, however, we have found a Hurtigruten 23 day Antarctica cruise that includes the Falklands.
This will be our first "proper" cruise (we have used Ecoventura in the Galapagos and also toured the Yangtze River) and were so looking forward to our Silversea cruise. We do not have much time to research as we need to book soon. Any thoughts on Hurtigruten, I appreciate it is not as luxurious but will we get the same Antarctica experience? Any thoughts/comments/advice welcomed...
