Akademik Ioffe Testimonials
Antarctic Peninsula
Robert Leonard (Dec 2008 - Cruise on Akademik Ioffe)Great! I always enjoyed my conversations with the staff at Adventure Life...very friendly and knowledgeable.
Very well organized. Plenty of zodiac landings. Great scenery and wildlife. Excellent ship and crew. The camping option really could have been better explained beforehand.

Antarctica
Siobhan Beecher (Dec 2007 - Akademik Ioffe)The crew of the Akademik Ioffe were professional and entertaining throughout the trip. Their enthusiasm was contagious. The flexibility of the crew to deal with the expectations of all the passengers was great. Ad hoc events organised on board were very entertaining. It was excellent - trip of a lifetime.
Carol Gluckman (Dec 2007 - Akademik Ioffe)
I would highly recommend visiting Antarctica on the Ioffe. The captain had a 24 hour open bridge policy which made for some great pics and interesting conversation. The staff members were very knowledgeable and they covered their lecture topics with enthusiasm and humor. The staff and crew on the ship were all wonderful. They were very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history, wildlife and environment of Antarctica. They always had a plan B, C, or D thought out if weather prevented us from doing something.

The ship and the people were awesome! I would give the food on the ship 5 stars.
