FAQ
Where can I secure my valuables?
- All of our motor vessels have safe deposit boxes in the cabins. These small compartments (height 170mm x width 230mm x depth 170mm) are suitable for such items as phones, passports, keys, and jewelry but are not large enough to store larger items like laptops.
Are there age restrictions for the voyages?
- Children must be at least three years old to sail with us, however we advise against travelling with children under 8 years old. We do not have an upper age restriction, but all passengers must be mentally and physically capable of making the voyage.
What form of payment do you accept on board?
- Aboard Hondius, Ortelius, Plancius, and Rembrandt van Rijn, refreshments and souvenirs will be charged to your cabin. The day before disembarking, you can settle your bill with the hotel manager and pay by Visa or MasterCard, Diners Club/Discover, Union Pay, or cash (Euro or USD). The prices and standard currency on board all of our vessels is the Euro.
What forms of payment do you accept when making a reservation?
- We accept payment via bank transfer, Wise or credit card (Mastercard and Visa). When paying with a credit card, we have to pass on a credit card fee.
What Wildlife Can Be Seen in the Antarctic Circle?
- The exact area of the Antarctic Circle that you visit will directly impact the type of wildlife that you might encounter. During a cruise to the Antarctic Circle, it is possible that you will see a variety of penguin species, along with whales, seals and seabirds.
Who Discovered the Antarctic Circle?
- Although we do not know which individual determined the existence of this Polar Circle, history does tell us that James Cook was the first person to travel to the Antarctic Circle. Cook reportedly crossed the circle via boat in 1773 as part of his second voyage to discover new regions.
When was the Hondius built?
- The Hondius was built in Croatia in 2018 and delivered in 2019.
How many people can travel on board the Hondius?
- The number of passengers is limited to 174 on the Hondius. Furthermore the vessel is manned by 24 highly experienced international nautical crew, 32-34 international hotel crew, 13 expedition staff (1 expedition leader, 2 assistant expedition leaders and 10 guides/lecturers) and 1 doctor.
Do I need a full facemask during polar diving?
This is up to you. Many divers choose to dive without one, in which case Vaseline is a great help in protecting your face against the cold water.
What equipment will be provided during polar diving?
We provide cylinders and weights. Also, each ship has a fully serviced compressor for re-filling our 12-liter cylinders. Each cylinder allows for the attachment of two regulators that can be independently isolated in event of a free-flow or malfunction. The cylinders have DIN valves fitted, and this is our recommended type. DIN inserts are available on board. For a more detailed list of equipment we provide versus what you must bring, please see our polar diving activity page.
