Our People
#1 reason to travel with Quark: Our people
Karen from Pennsylvania wrote to us March 28, 2011 about the importance of the Expedition Team to the success of the trip:
"Travel is never just about location, but is always about people. Simply stated, the EXPEDITION TEAM (and I expand that to include the entire support staff), was the highlight of my trip! From the moment they welcomed us on board, they displayed their extraordinary professionalism, a caring , enthusiastic spirit, and an unwavering dedication to make the trip as perfect as possible for all of us. They never stopped sharing their expansive knowledge, extensive Antarctic/Polar experience, and respect and passion for the Continent. They never stopped giving! They never stopped helping, and they never stopped smiling! They appreciated the fact for many of us, this was the trip of a lifetime. The Expedition Team was the "keystone," the most important piece, the piece that anchors all the others, in the construction of a great adventure."
Like just about everything else in life, the quality of your polar adventure depends entirely on the people delivering it. That’s why we don’t even think of hiring anyone who isn’t simply the best.
When you travel with Quark, you’ll be taken care of by the best navigation, hospitality and expedition crews in the world, period. We hire only the most knowledgeable, engaging and enthusiastic people – all with impeccable credentials and extensive experience in the Polar Regions.
Sharing our passion
You’d be hard-pressed to find a group of people more passionate about the Polar Regions than the staff at Quark. From your first email or phone call to your last goodbye, we are delighted to share everything we know and love about these unique and beautiful regions.
