The adventure
The Antarctic Peninsula is anything but a world of white desolation. Join us on a true adventure to a world of immense scale and visual splendour. Passing huge icebergs in the flat calm of a polar morning will reshape the way you look at your world. Encounter huge whales, enormous rookeries of penguins, and stunning landscapes few have ever witnessed. This 11-day expedition will introduce you to the magic of the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula.
Arrive in Ushuaia at any time. Arrival transfer included. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the world's most southerly city.

Traveller reviews
“From the time I stepped aboard the ship everything went perfectly. Having travelled for a good part of my 71 years this was one of the best holidays I've had.”
“An unforgettable trip among water, ice and snow. We had excellent weather, a great expedition team and saw fantastic amounts of wildlife. I could not have asked for more.”
“This was the MOST amazing trip of my life! (and I have traveled a lot) The experience of seeing this vastly untouched continent is something I won't ever forget. The penguins were adorable and the staff was excellent in giving the passengers a full and knowledgable trip. Highly…”
