The new video series of the small-ship company Oceanwide Expeditions - “The Expedition Guide”, addresses essential topics of polar expedition travel, instructing both returning and first-time passengers on how to get the most out of an Arctic or Antarctic cruise.
Covered in the brief but informative videos are topics like how to pack for a polar voyage, how to maximize camera equipment for the best photos of polar terrain and wildlife, and how to properly put on snowshoes.
All videos are led by veteran guides from a background of fields: Some are scientists, some are trained in specialized activities like polar diving or mountaineering, but all have extensive experience in polar expedition cruising.
Each video links to articles at the OEX website going into further detail about the particular polar topic. This is due to ensure that not only first-time polar passengers are benefited but seasoned travelers as well.
