Texas is starting to open up. These hotels are a sampling of the top destinations in Texas where you can take your dog
Online PR News – 01-June-2020 – United States – Dog-Friendly hotels span the spectrum from luxury to the budget hotel and from the center city to the rural highway location. There are a number of factors that make a hotel stay truly pet-friendly. These factors effect how truly pet-friendly the hotel really is. These are the quality of the hotel, the size of the dogs permitted, the pet fees and the number of dogs allowed with you. Some hotels just permit dogs and greatly restrict the size and type of dog. Other hotels welcome dogs with dog cookies and snacks, doggy menus on room service, leashes and water dishes and other amenities.

My rating is based on expectations for a roadside motel. I thought this motel fit the bill for $80/night in a room with two double beds. Reliable Wi-Fi, a nice view, windows that open and about a 10 minute drive to Cooperstown.
The mattresses were ok, there was a small fridge in the room which worked well. An update to the TVs might be a nice idea, and if wall-mounted, would also allow for a bit more space in the admittedly small rooms. Overall, the rooms were clean and well-kept. Also had very friendly staff at the front desk.
The continental breakfast was fine, the usual selection of bready bagels, toast etc. that you might expect.
All in all, a fine stay. The motel delivers exactly what their web site says they will.

A perfect day: Rise to the mist over the bay. Then off to explore the gallery at Huff Winery. A visit to Bloomfield and Wellington for unique shopping. Then a couple of hours on the sand banks catching the sun. Stop at a local winery to sample and select wine for dinner. A visit to one of the local county markets for the freshest meats, vegetables and fruits, then home for dinner on the deck, watching the swans sail regally by, and then looking up at more stars than you've ever seen before. And so to sleep in the perfect quiet of a County night,.
Tomorrow? Golf and boating. Or maybe the area museums. A visit to Picton, or even Kingston.
Or just relax at Hawthorn Cottage, swimming, crafting and scrap-booking, reading, playing games, and re-charging the batteries with family and friends.
You can do the rest tomorrow. Or on your next visit.
We enjoyed our stay at Hawthorn Cottage! It accomodates 8 and has two separate wings which allows for space/privacy. The cottage is well stocked, clean and comfortable. Look forward to another visit in the future!
We, a group of four senior couples, thoroughly enjoyed our one week stay at the cottage . It is a bungalow with all the living areas at the ground level . It has four spacious bed rooms with large enough windows and comfortable beds , two nice clean bathrooms, a well furnished living/sitting room with a large screen satellite TV that lets you tune into a multitude of channels, a second sitting room, and a recreation room where eight of us could play cards together. The cottage is stocked with plenty of cutlery, plates, cups , cooking utensils, barbecue and small appliances. etc. The back yard that backs into a lake is large and kept mowed, well suited to set up a volley ball or badminton court. We set up and played badminton with the equipment we brought with us. The internet was readily accessible. The road in front of the cottage (the cottage is sufficiently removed from the road) was not busy and we found it very convenient for our morning walk. The owner was readily available for consultation by phone or by text and invited suggestions for improvement.
We have previously vacationed together in cottages in and around Prince Edward County and this one we like the most.
We spent two wonderful weeks at Hawthorne Cottage. The first week was spent with our extended family - both sets of grandparents and our two children (ages 2 and 4). For the second week, the grandparents left and our friend's family moved in with their three children (ages 18 m, 3.5 and 6). The cottage was incredibly well-stocked (more so than our own home!) with endless dishes and glassware, good quality appliances, large capacity washer/dryer, great quality linens, comfortable beds, a hammock, loads of outdoor seating, a campfire pit and even two bbqs. The property was absolutely beautiful and very spacious for lots of time spent playing outside with the kids. There was even a horseshoe pit and a golf mat/net for practice. We did take the kids swimming at the cottage (water shoes suggested), but also spent a lot of time at close by North Beach which we found to be much less busy than Sandbanks. We went kayaking at the cottage as well (brought our own kayaks) which was wonderful and calm. The kids didn't mind being dragged around to the areas wineries as well - especially those equipped with trampolines (Norman Hardie, Broken Stone). Inside the cottage layout was perfect for two families as there are two sides (even two kitchens!) to keep things separated if desired. There was also a great craft room for rainy days where the kids enjoyed painting rocks and playing games. There was also wireless internet and a fully stocked media console with netflix, video games, etc. for evenings or when the weather wasn't particularly nice. This was much more a 'vacation home' than a 'cottage' as it was so well-equipped. On a side note, we had arranged for family photos to be taken in the area with our extended family during our stay. The property was so beautiful that we ended up staying right onsite at Hawthorne cottage with it's beautiful gardens and shoreline. We don't have enough good things to say about our stay and hope to be back again to make more great memories in Prince Edward County. Owner Tom was a pleasure to work with in coordinating our stay. We highly recommend Hawthorne for a vacation getaway with family or friends.
Our extended family (six adults, two children) stayed at Hawthorn Cottage for a week. Lots of space for everyone, comfortable beds and a well equipped kitchen were very much appreciated. Great deck overlooking the lawn and the water. Lots of space for the kids to play. Hawthorn is ideally located to explore the County and handy to North Beach if you want a sandy swimming beach. Thanks for a great time.
Had an awesome week at Hawthorne Cottage . We were 5 adults and 3 children ages 7/4/2 yrs. The layout of the cottage is great for two families with younger children. We had everything we could possibly need from the appliances, cooking needs, comfortable beds, hot showers etc and this was wonderful. The large waterfront yard was perfect for games of soccer, baseball, football, Frisbee and water squirters! Likewise on the rare occasion we were indoors - the availability of board games, WII and a big screen TV to keep up with the Pan Am games was a bonus plus access to the internet was useful for those needing to check in on work projects. The location near Consecon provided easy day trips to North Beach , Sandbanks beach and the adults enjoyed some wine tasting at the local wineries. Our host was very obliging and we felt quite welcome and " at home" in this lovely cottage. I highly recommend this vacation site for families wanting so spend some quality time together.
We spent an amazing week at Hawthorn Cottage with our extended family. I was there with my husband, 10 month old son, my parents and my sister's family with her twin five year-olds.
The layout of this cottage is a little bit quirky - it actually kind of feels like two cottages stuck together, with two separate wings. This works perfectly for two families, as you have a lot of privacy (and screaming babies don't wake the others!). We were also thankful that it was a bungalow with plenty of space to play and no stairs to fall down. The front lawn is huge and is ideal for games and crawling around. It is an amazing set up for young families.
The property itself is beautiful and very well located. It is close to North Beach Provincial park, as well as a number of wineries. We had expected to spend more time in Picton, Sandbanks and Bloomfield, but the cottage itself was so nice that we did not venture too far most days.
Tom is a conscientious owner who is very accommodating and always looking for ways to improve the experience of his renters. He was a pleasure to work with. The cottage was clean, well equipped and has a great vibe. We will be back next summer, if not before!
Thanks for a great week!

Great location, super helpful staff, nice rooftop pool. Great getaway!
We really enjoyed our vacation, the unit was clean, nicely decorated, and equipped with all we needed to enjoy the beach and to cook complete meals.
Mr. Stephano was very cooperative with our family, and he quickly responded any call we made to him.
I had a great stay and would definitely recommend it!
The stay was great! Be sure you are there for the south beach craziness because it is all around you and I wasn't prepared for that. The hotel itself looks shabby/south beach on the outside but the inside of your apartment (privately owned) is very tasteful, pretty clean and comfortable. Just goes to show you can't judge a book by its cover! Elena was wonderful there was some confusion with the initial booking but she was extremely helpful and very kind.
This is THE BEST listing you could find in south beach Miami for 4 main reasons.
1 - 2 blocks from the beach (3 min walking)
2 - close to the fun places yet far enough from the craziness.
3 - it's located in a place surrounded by high-end restaurants and clubs and also close to a cute park on front the Bass museum.
4 - the unite was clean and decorated beautifully and very presentable if having a guest or a small party.
My experience with Elena and Stefano was great and will defiantly try to book the same unit or one of their units when I'm in Miami next time.
Response from Elena:
Thanks , we really agree to meet you and be your host .
Great place to stay!!!! Right on ocean avenue right next to the Clevelander, so if u want a nice outdoor club, it's right there. Food is everywhere and the atmosphere is exciting. The room was exactly like the pictures, and the bed is very comfortable. Two extra beds in case friends are too drunk to go to their room lol(happened to me). I would stay again next time I came down Miami. .
Elena is very easy to work with. Her place is lovely, clean, quiet, and right on the beach. It's the perfect location to stay in SoBe. We especially enjoyed the welcoming bottle of bubbles. Thank you, Elena, we will be back.
Fotos match exactly what you get.
Direct on oceandrive, a little bit noisy...well thats th prize for ocean drive.
wouls absolutely recommend.
Elena's place is basically the best location to stay in Miami Beach. She is an excellent host, everything is taken care for you, and you do not have to worry about anything.
The place is very close to everything, Lincoln Road, Ocean Drive, the beach. There are also tons of DecoBike stations all around that you can just rent a bike and have fun riding in Miami Beach.
The place itself is plain gorgeous. Super neat, spacious, very well decorated, the kitchen has all its essentials to cook nice meals while your stay.
In a nutshell, when I go back to Miami, Elena's place is definitely where I stay. 100% recommended.

Superbreak launches royal wedding packages
Superbreak launches royal wedding packages in advance of April 2011
[USPRwire, Thu Dec 09 2010] Superbreak, the short break specialist, has announced the launch of its royal wedding packages, allowing customers the opportunity to secure a break in advance of the April wedding date.
The York based tour operator has launched a selection of royal wedding breaks ranging from 2 to 3 night breaks to ensure customers have the chance to celebrate the royal wedding in April next year. Customers can choose from a range of 3 to 5-star hotel breaks in central London, securing hotel rooms in Kensington, Knightsbridge and the West End to appeal to most budgets and tastes.
Each of the tailor-made packages include return rail travel from any East Coast rail station, a flight on the London Eye and a Hi-Life dining card that offers 2 meals for the price of 1 and is valid for a full year. What's more, the on-going partnership with Smartsave enables Superbreak to pass on even more discounts to its customers offering savings of up to 20% at top London restaurants and attractions with the Smartsave booklet.
The royal wedding packages have already received a great deal of interest with hundreds of clients registering their interest with the company last week. Thousands of customers travel with Superbreak to London each year and the new packages for the Royal Wedding are expected to sell out quickly.

Whether you’re new to Asheville or a long-time resident, looking to vacation in the area this holiday season, or just curious about all the Asheville holiday hype, you can always find something new and entertaining to do in our unique, charming little city. Plus, the holidays bring on more elevated fun for you and your family to explore! Read on for some local to-dos your family can experience this holiday season.
The historic Biltmore Estate is a must-see if the Asheville area, especially for fans of architecture, history, and natural beauty. The estate features a dazzling estate, garden & grounds, winery, dining, shopping, exhibits, a hotel and more. Plus, during the holiday season, you can experience the one-of-a-kind Christmas at Biltmore. This holiday adventure features daytime and nighttime events, candlelight tours, and enchanting decor through and through.
You can plan a different adventure every weekend through Asheville Adventure Company. They offer hiking, e-bike tours, overnight backpacking excursions, and kayaking opportunities. The choice is truly yours! From whitewater adventures to land adventures, Asheville Adventure Company can cater to a few or many.
Their two locations (99 Riverside Drive and 521 Amboy Road) make it convenient to schedule your family’s adventure and find your next favorite thing to do in the city. The variety of activities they offer is just one reason Asheville is the perfect family-friendly community. As the family comes together this holiday season, show them the Asheville you love with the memories they’ll never forget.
Will you be spending the holidays with a more brainy bunch? The Asheville Museum of Science offers an engaging experience from start to finish. While the museum is only open to the public on the weekends, this is a great way to turn your Saturday or Sunday into an entertaining and educational family event. The museum offers interactive exhibits that teach about geology, topography, and ecology. They also have dinosaur exhibits that appeal to children and adults of all ages.
Located downtown at 43 Patton Avenue, the museum is close to many Asheville homes for sale. So, take a drive around and start envisioning what life would be like in our exciting, beautiful neck of the woods during the holidays and beyond.
Looking for a taste of a more quirky kind of history? Wanting to test out your arcade skills or knowledge? We know just the place. Searching the Asheville real estate market is exciting, but if you want the excitement to continue try bringing your family to 1 Battle Square (Suite 1B). There you’ll find the Asheville Pinball Museum, but don’t let the name fool you! You can do more than just look at the games.
Your entire family can spend the day playing a variety of pinball games on display. Pay one admission price per person, and gameplay will otherwise be free of charge.
When it's time to get outside and enjoy this cooler weather, you can still enjoy a family-friendly day in downtown Asheville. A community revitalization group erected a series of bronze statues throughout the downtown area to renew interest in the city. Each statue provides a plaque containing trivia about the city and its history.
When you get tired of walking, relax on a nearby bench, stop by a local restaurant for a delicious lunch, or do a little window shopping at some of the shops. There’s enough to do on this tour of Asheville’s Museum Without Walls to keep your family entertained for the entire day.
In addition to the suggestions offered here, you can discover other holiday events in the area, such as concerts, festivals, and fairs. When you have a free evening or want to plan a family outing for the weekend, search for events online. Many organizations will post their events on social media sites, making it easier to find their family-friendly Asheville attractions.
The holidays in Asheville bring in more to love and more to experience in our vibrant city. Asheville offers a multitude of opportunities to bring the family together this holiday season. Which Asheville attraction are you most excited to explore? Whatever it is, we hope you feel holly jolly the entire time!

Suggestions for transportation from Milan to Colle di Val d"Elsa
Hello! My 88 year old mother-in-law wanted to tour Tuscany with a particular tour she liked and use her frequent flyer miles. As there were no award flights into Firenze, we are flying into Milan Malpensa airport. It looks easy enough to take a train from the airport to Milano Centrale, then from Milano Centrale to Firenze SMN. My question is what is the best way to get from Firenze SMN to our hotel in Colle di Val d'Elsa? Thank you very much for your help!
January 5, 2015, 06:50 PM
Yes, it is relatively easy to take the train from the airport in Milan to Milano Centrale, then on to Florence's SMN train station. From there you can continue by train to Colle Val d'Elsa: the town itself is divided into two parts, as the historical part is on a hill and the newer part is below and the train station is here in this part.
Is your hotel in the newer part? The only negative thing is that the train connection from Florence to Colle is not direct, you go through Empoli and you might have to change train there (not always required).
Another drawback is this: do you really want to subject your 88 year old MIL to 4 different trains?
How about treating yourselves to a private transfer from Milan's airport all the way to Colle, with maybe a stop along the way to take a break during the drive? It might even cost less, than the 4 train tickets for two.
Here are just two possibilities - I'd suggest emailing both and asking for a more precise quote, giving them your dates to ask for availability.
What do you think of this as an alternative? Otherwise, train is doable, just will be a long day!

I had a reservation and could not use the hotel due to force majeure. Planes did not take off from Istanbul like any other major cities in Europe. But I made it. I stayed at the hotel 3 nights, but paid for 4! Bad season I guess, or the owners are desperate for money.
Location is really good if you want to stay at the center of the village. And although Londoner is just across the hotel, the sound isolation is pretty good (or i was really tired) cause i did not hear anything. I had a pretty spacious single room (it was double the size of the single room i stayed at Tiefenbrunner in 2009) and here comes the best part: the breakfast buffet is amazing! I forgot to ask how much it would cost if we were not guests at the hotel. I must also say that the staff is very friendly.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Our 4 star hotel offers you a premium and legendary holiday experience in one of the most beautiful holiday regions in the alps.

Frequently Asked Questions from our travellers
Frequently Asked Questions from our travellers
It’s probably the hardest question to answer well. There’s certainly no bad time.
The most popular time is from mid-December to the end of January and these voyages sell out first (sometimes 18 months in advance).
The below are pages that summarise the benefits/differences of travelling during the Antarctic season;
Early (Late October, November & early December)
Our advice is to think about what’s most important to you
1. Question: Do you want to maximise your time off the ship exploring in zodiacs or going ashore?
2. Question: How important is your cabin, cuisine and on-board facilities;
3. Question: Where do you want to go – the voyage itinerary
Answer: Most ships offer a range of itineraries from 10 to 22 nights
Antarctic Peninsula Cruises 9-11 night voyages
Antarctic Circle Cruises 11-13 night voyages
Antarctica, Falklands & South Georgia 16-23 night voyages
There are other itineraries offering different combinations and our suggestion is tell us what you want to see/include and we’ll find the itineraries that include what you want.
4. Question: What’s your budget?
Answer: In general terms Expedition or larger ships will offer lower prices.
Expedition ships are generally less costly to operates and whilst the cuisine is good it’s not gourmet. Larger ships also offer good value as with 200 guests to spread fixed costs (fuel and ship) it is possible to offer value.
Luxury ships with large cabins and a high level of service and inclusions are very likely to cost the most.
Itinerary duration as well as time of the year will also have an impact on the price.
All of the above will affect which ship is best suited to your needs.
To try to assist you in understanding the options as well as how ship style effects delivery we have divided the ships into three ‘styles’:
Maximising time ashore/exploring.
There are two factors which impact this;
1. The operational style and 2. The size of the ship.
Expedition ships are generally operated by companies that want to maximise time off the ship. The ships are often a little older and many are smaller (close to 100 guests). The size of the ship feeds into maximising time off the ship as for landings IAATO regulations mean that no more than 100 guests can be ashore at any one time.
As the name suggests these Antarctic cruise ships are a hybrid of an Expedition Ship and a Luxury Ship. Some are smaller ships with close to 100 guests and can offer two landings a day and focus on maximising opportunities for exploring as on an expedition vessel but with the added comfort of having larger, more comfortable cabins and common areas. Those with up to 200 guests generally offer one off ship excursion a day (largely due to time factors associated with the 100 passenger ashore limit, that said those with an expedition heritage will often offer a dual programme – while 100 guests go ashore the other 100 are taking a zodiac cruise, then you swap) and still have an adventurous soul. Generally cabins are larger or perhaps the ship is newer than an Expedition ship. Meals are a mix of buffet and served courses and the cuisine is of a very high standard.
These luxurious Antarctic cruise ships combine more traditional-style cruising with an Antarctic adventure. They offer large, very comfortable cabins with en-suite facilities; many suites have private balconies.
Excellent cuisine options are available on board. Zodiac dinghies and an expedition team enable you to explore the Antarctic Peninsula and come home to an exquisite ship. A luxury ship puts greater emphasis on the on-board experience. On-board the bigger luxury vessels there are limitations on the number of landing made as at most sites due to the 100 people ashore limit.
This will depend upon three main factors:
1. The ship operator’s style of operation;
Expedition style operators generally try to get off the ship as much as possible to experience the destinations up close. Twice per day is common, either for shore excursions of zodiac cruises, or a combination of both.
2. The number of guests on the ship;
Ships with close to 100 can land all clients at one time.
Ships with closer to 200 guests will either have fewer excursions, or swap (e.g. 100 zodiac cruise, whilst 100 go ashore)
3. Weather and ice conditions;
Duration of the landings vary from site to site but at the height of the peak season, cruise operators must stick to timings allocated by authorities.
Durations of excursions will vary dependent upon, operator, site and weather conditions (which can change quickly).
New purpose built ships offer easier access to zodiacs and kayaks and have ‘mud-rooms’ to store all of the gear needed to take zodiac excursion or to go ashore. This is in addition to more comfortable cabins. These new builds are/will be more environmentally sound, with lower emissions, lower fuel usage and better waste handling facilities etc.
Ships in this category include Greg Mortimer (sister ship Sylvia Earle being built), National Geographic Endurance, National Geographic Resolution (under construction), Hondius, World Explorer, Hanseatic Inspiration and the Ultramarine.
Each ship carries a different maximum number of guests in Antarctica; varying between 68 (Ocean Nova) and 240 (Silver Wind). In addition to guests there will be an expedition team and ship-based crew which will vary dependent on the number of guests/size of ship.
It is worth noting that IAATO regulations limit the number of guest going ashore at any one time to 100.
It will depend upon the ship operator is based (i.e. where they are based, e.g. American or Canadian operators will have more Americans and Canadians, European operators will have more Europeans, Australian operators more Australians and New Zealanders) and all will have a mix of nationalities.
The majority of travellers will be aged 40-70. There’s often a close to equal split between ladies and gent (couples and solo travellers). Occasionally there will be a few children travelling, often with parents and grand parents.
Some vessels have minimum age requirements ranging from 6 to 12.
Most ships offer a twin share price and offer the ability to book a shared cabin (with another same sex guest) at no additional cost.
If you would like sole occupancy of a cabin then there is usually a single-supplement (ranging from X1.5 to X2 the twin share price).
Whilst there will be many couples on most voyages there will also be a number of solo travellers; from experience, most guests are well travelled and making friends is quite easy/common.
Please book your Antarctica cruise with as much notice as possible to give you the best selection of itineraries, ship, travel dates and cabin types. Many voyages are sold out 12-18 months in advance.
To encourage early booking, most ships offer Early-Bird Offers
Travel insurance, including medical evacuation cover, is mandatory for all voyages. We advise you have insurance for voyage cancellation to ensure you will be covered financially if you are forced to cancel your voyage due to circumstances beyond your control. Visit this page for more information on travel insurance.
Many vessels offer kayaking, a night of camping on the Antarctic Peninsula, snow-shoeing, skiing and even climbing; usually for an additional cost.
If you have a special adventure interest, please discuss with us at time of booking. Kayaking tends to book out quite early so if that’s something you definitely want to be able to do – again BOOK EARLY.
Food is generally very good and will vary in quality dependent upon the ship. Expedition ships will offer a mixture of buffet and served dishes with a limited choice. Most clients tend to put on weight – so it can’t be too bad.
Luxury ships will often offer several restaurant choices for your meals. Some will offer in cabin dining and some will be of a gourmet standard; and that’s despite being in one of the remote places on the planet.
Most dietary needs can be catered for; please tell us at time of enquiry of any dietary requirements so we can ensure you are well looked after.
All the Antarctic ships we work with have a doctor on board.
Please note access to advanced medical care is extremely limited and prescription medicines must be taken with you.
If you do have a pre-existing medical condition should speak with your personal physician before booking and note that you will be required to advise the ship operator as part of the booking process.
All but two of the ships we work with offer a complimentary polar expedition jacket to wear during your expedition and take home after your trip.
The exceptions are the Ocean Nova & Magellan Explorer and they offer the option to purchase a jacket.
During the summer months (when ships visit) the temperature can range from -5°C to +15°C. Significant depressions do pass through (although relatively infrequently), but if one comes through the temperature can drop much lower drop to -8°C to -12°C.
To make the most of any voyage, you should be in good general health and able to walk reasonable distances, sometimes over uneven terrain. However, if you have problems walking on rough ground, you can still enjoy the scenery closer to shore. Should you have any physical limitations please discuss with us before you book; generally this should not discourage you from participating.
All our ships are air-conditioned and the temperature ranges for 15°C to 25°C. You can control the temperature of your cabin by adjusting the airflow through the roof vent and turning your heater on or off.
On-board WiFi internet packages are usually available for purchase during the voyage. Telephone access for personal use is not available on board. In case of an emergency, all ships will have satellite phones.
The International Association of Antarctic Tour Operators (IAATO) implement strict wildlife guidelines that all visitors to Antarctica must abide by. On-board briefings will be given to all guests.
For all species you must keep at least 5 metres between you and the animal in question. Several species, like Giant Petrels, that are more vulnerable to disturbance, require greater distance (20 metres or greater).
It is recommended to relieve yourself on board before going on a landing but if the necessity arises ashore, you will be able to be taken back to the ship via Zodiac.
Although you cannot swim in Antarctica, most voyages offer a ‘Polar Plunge’, where all willing passengers can take the ultimate dip into the icy Antarctic waters.
In general, items that are not included in the cost of your voyage are: flights to and from your voyage (though some operators do offer charter flights within South America), pre- and post-accommodation, transfers, extra drinks from the bar, gratuities, Ship Shop items, laundry costs and other items of a personal nature (unless stated in your voyage inclusions).
Some voyages do include certain pre- and post-cruise travel arrangements, so please ask your consultant about specific voyage inclusions.
The on-board currency for the majority of ships is US dollars. All your on-board purchases including bar, laundry, ship shop, internet, and massages are charged to your shipboard account and settled by credit card or cash (US dollars only) at the end of the voyage.
Many people ask us if they will get seasick. It is a very difficult question to answer because it depends so much on the individual. Our experience is that a small percentage of people are seasick on any trip and most of these people are fine after a day or so at sea. If you feel that you are particularly susceptible to seasickness then it is a good idea to talk to your doctor. We advise you come armed with motion sickness tablets, and there will be a doctor on board to assist with any bouts of seasickness.
What gear you take depends on your goals and interests. If you have a DSLR and want to get closer to wildlife you’ll need a decent zoom a 70-300mm gives reasonable range as well as lessening the need to change lenses which can be challenging (i.e. in a zodiac you need to be careful not to get water into your camera). If you want to get much closer then a 400mm+ lens is useful (and they are large and heavy). The faster the lens the better. As in low light a fast lens will help get a crisp image. A wide angle lens – perhaps a 24-70mm would mean two lenses will give you a good range (a suggestion is to try not to have to keep changing lenses).
A point and shoot, or your Iphone, can also capture decent images. Personally I use a point and shoot whilst moving in zodiacs or for ‘quick shots’.
Be sure to have spare memory cards. Spare batteries and possibly a spare charger (as no battery means no images). if you do get salt-water on your camera be sure to rinse it in fresh water when you get back to the ship and allow to dry. The last useful item is a dry bag; to keep your camera(s) and lens(es) dry in less good weather or when in zodiacs (as with wind and just the movement of the zodiac there is often spray that can damage cameras).
