Holiday Flight Co

Just got back from a wonderful trip to Svalbard via the Orkneys, Fair Isle, the Faroes and Jan Mayen. Thoroughly recommended.

Communication with WILDFOOT Travel was good throughout. Replies to queries were received quickly - thanks Sylvia Captain, crew and guides were all very knowledgeable and entertaining. Cabin was clean, comfortable and warm (occasionally a little too warm). Excellent food. We didn't see much of the wildlife, but we were super lucky with the weather- clear night skies with super sunsets and fabulous aurora shows.

Great snowshoeing treks each day. We joined the "survival" group on the first day. Bit of fun in a light snowy blizzard. Thereafter we chose the "cozy" group. A bit like walking through Narnia. Stunning scenery. Also managed to sail with the sails raised a couple of times. take seasickness tablets/bands with you. A great holiday. Many thanks guys. COVID health and safety measures were in place which did have an impact on getting to know other group members. However, we were kept as safe as could be achieved. If you are considering this trip, we're sure you will have a great experience Isobel and Nicola

In May 2021, we booked an Antarctic expedition through Wildfoot for departure in January 2022. Simon, Tina, and Syliva spent many hours walking us through various options, and eventually placed us with Oceanwide Expeditions. The ship, MV Hondius, was state-of-the-art, and our all-too-brief time on the Antarctic Peninsula was as magical as you'd expect.

I've never been anywhere so desolate and forbidding, yet overflowing with wildlife, at the same time. Unfortunately, despite best efforts, our trip was cut short due a covid outbreak on the ship. Oceanwide's onboard staff handled the disappointing situation with great professionalism despite the difficult circumstances. However, it was after the shortened voyage ended that Wildfoot truly excelled. Simon, Tina, and especially Sylvia negotiated a resolution with Oceanwide's corporate office for more than a month afterwards.

They could have simply thrown their hands in the air, and said 'there's nothing we can do', and walked away. Instead, they advocated for us for weeks afterwards with Oceanwide. This is a level of service far above and beyond the ordinary. This team is 'the real deal'. I can't recommend them more highly. I would book again with Wildfoot in an instant.

We travelled to the Arctic via Longyearbyen with Wildfoot. It was a memorable trip. The MS Plancius was definitely the right choice. The ship is very nice, very comfortable, very clean, the crew is fantastic, the meals were very good, the expedition staff very kind and extremely knowledgeable and professional. It holds approx 100 people which is perfect as you get to know people better and its a great atmosphere (better than the big liners).

All activities were very well and timely organized in a safely manner. On our Arctic voyage we came across a massive 13 polar bears, two Arctic foxes, reindeer, walrus, seals, minkey whale and fin whale. Wildfoot' support was outstanding. They responded to my emails time after time as I had so many questions and gave us detail every time, I strongly recommend this trip with Wildfoot.

What a great trip! Wildfoot built a great trip for us and every aspect was spot on. The hotels were great, our Iguazu guide was fun, interesting and helpful, and all the transfers were timely and comfortable. But the big item - the Antarctica trip - was superb. Wildfoot had given us the best advice and helped us choose the right ship and tour for what we wanted. A truly memorable experience. Thank you Wildfoot.

WILDFOOT - PANTANAL TRIP 7-16TH OCTOBER 2018 Following a previous trip organised by Wildfoot to Antarctic, Shackleton route, which was a first class organised trip, we were confident a Pantanal trip with the same company would be equally first class, and how right we were. They arranged a private guided trip, transport and accommodation on bespoke dates when other companies couldn't at short notice, and at good value. Was it worth it? - All internal flights were efficient and on time (Azul and Latam).

All road transport (4x4) air conditioned and comfortable, river boat=transport - efficient, reliable and always on time and waiting, with all drivers professional, and just as keen as the guide to spot and show you the wildlife. Our english speaking Brazilian guide (Fino) was world class (the best we have ever experienced anywhere), based on his bird/mammal knowledge, patience/persistence, and bird/animal behaviour predictability, correct judgements on sites and his adaptability to meet our individual requirements.

He demonstrated great humour, kindness and "drive" to assist with any issue at any given time of day or night. We also learnt how to mimic some bird calls from Fino, and it worked for us! We deliberately decided not to count the number of birds/mammals species spotted (in the hundreds) and Fino adapted to our" Native" theme. Highlights were behaviour from seeing swimming/hunting Jaguars, foraging Armadillo, Howler and Capuchin monkey troops quietly/calmly playing in the treetops.

Following a Tapir slowly rustling his way through the forest to a water hole, great river otters mating, a wild Peccary party, Anteater parading as if it was at Crufts, Blue Hyacinth Macaws gently preening each other, the territory battle between Agami and tiger Heron, the sound of Caiman crunching its fish. And on and on it goes. The three locations of Pouso Alegre, Panoramic Flotel, and South Wild were essential to maximise the different wildlife opportunities and their behaviour We would repeat this trip again in exactly the same way and no doubt find even more new experiences After Shackleton route, this was our best trip ever, and Wildfoot (and their agents Brazil Nature Tours) were key to the success of this trip. Hundreds pf photographs taken, but none meet the visual/sensory memories. An outstanding, uplifting and mind-blowing experience. Thank You.

Excellent advice, efficient and friendly organisation with a terrific expedition to Antarctica which we'll remember as long as we remember anything. Thank you Wildfoot

Fabulous knowledge and customer service. Only back a week and already planning our next trip with them - surely that says it all?

A great big thanks to all at Wildfoot Travel for making my Antarctic expedition an epic adventure of immense proportions. Everything went smoothly, pickups, hotels and most of all the expedition itself. Truly a mind blowing experience unlike any I have ever taken. Looking forward to booking the next trip with you.

I have recently return from Svalbard and the Realm of the Polar Bear in Depth. I highly recommend this trip. I had discussions and advise from various team members at Wildfoot and I'm extremely happy with there advise. I think this trip suited me the best. Was great for a single traveller or groups. Wild foot organised everything well. I appreciated them getting me there a couple of days prior to sailing.

There is a lot more than you may think to do in and around Longyearbryn. I could go back and plan plenty to keep me busy. I have had an unbelievable experience thanks to Wildfoot and G Adventures. The Arctic is a once in a life time not to be missed. Given the chance it is definitely somewhere I would go back. The binoculars that I received for booking early were a lovely touch from Wild foot and an essential item on a trip like this.
