1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using best-antarctica-cruises.com ("the Site"), you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use this Site.

2. Nature of Content

The Site provides independent editorial rankings, reviews, and informational content about Antarctica expedition cruise operators. All rankings represent the editorial opinion of our team based on publicly available information and our stated methodology. Rankings are not objective ratings, certifications, or endorsements — they are editorial assessments.

3. Affiliate Links and Commercial Relationships

Some outbound links on this Site are affiliate links. This means we may receive a financial commission if you click through and subsequently make a booking or purchase. Affiliated operators include but may not be limited to Poseidon Expeditions. Affiliate relationships are clearly disclosed where they exist.

Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial rankings. Operators are ranked according to our methodology regardless of whether an affiliate relationship exists. We do not accept payment for editorial placement, sponsored rankings, or positive reviews.

4. No Guarantee of Pricing Accuracy

Prices, availability, itineraries, and operator details referenced on this Site are provided for informational purposes only and may not reflect current offerings. Expedition cruise pricing is highly variable and changes frequently based on cabin category, departure date, booking timing, and operator promotions. Always verify current pricing and availability directly with the operator before making any booking decision. We accept no liability for pricing discrepancies between information displayed on this Site and operator booking systems.

5. External Links Disclaimer

This Site contains links to third-party websites operated by expedition cruise operators and other organizations. These links are provided for convenience and informational purposes only. We have no control over the content, privacy practices, or booking terms of third-party websites. Inclusion of a link does not constitute endorsement of any third-party website's content or practices. We accept no responsibility for the content or availability of external sites.

6. Accuracy of Information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure the accuracy of information presented on this Site. However, expedition cruise operations are subject to frequent change — ships are chartered, sold, or renamed; operators merge or cease operations; itineraries are modified; IAATO membership status changes. We cannot guarantee that all information is current and accurate at the time of your visit. Verify all material facts with the relevant operator before booking.
