Episode Description

Join us as we talk with Courtney about her incredible National Geographic Expedition Cruise to Antarctica. This episode is a perfect listen for any Disney Cruise Line fan looking to explore unique expedition cruises and see how they compare to a traditional sailing. We discuss her experience with the embarkation process, life on board the ship, and the importance of biosecurity to keep the continent pristine. You’ll get an inside look at what it’s like to sail the notorious Drake Passage and learn why Courtney recommends sailing both ways instead of flying one way.

Topics Discussed

  • Why National Geographic over other expedition cruise line
  • The pros and cons of sailing the Drake Passage versus flying the Drake Passage
  • The biosecurity and gear requirements for visiting Antarctica
  • The embarkation process and what it’s like to stay in Ushuaia, Argentina, before the sailing

  • The types of lectures and educational content provided on board
