The Fram is a modern small ship with stabilizers.. Norwegian cruise line with experience in ice. The crew and excursion guides were excellent. South Georgia is a spectacular place and we were there for two nights and one and a half days. Great tour locations. We hiked the last portion of Shackleton's hike across South Georgia and it was a memorable experience. Grytviken is spectacular.... I would have liked to spend more time there.

Great excursions on the Antarctic archipelago and on the continent itself.... we missed a few neat places (Elephant Island) and the Penguin Post Office because we were so early in the season.... but a beautiful cruise with experiences and organized cruise line.

Food was great. Read more
