Antarctica

Vast and frozen, awesome and strikingly beautiful, Antarctica is a place of true peace in a hectic world. The most southerly continent on the planet it offers the visitor an almost ethereal landscape comprising of towering mountains, huge glaciers dreamlike icebergs.

Warm clothing for this unique destination is a must. You should also consider that itineraries can alter due to ice, sea and weather conditions.

Cruising to Antarctica is a rare privilege and provides the intrepid explorers amongst you an opportunity to visit an area of the World very few have experienced.

The scenery is outstanding. The icebergs and glaciers provide an endless opportunity for photographers – particularly since the austral summer day ensures extended daylight hours. The wildlife is as diverse as the landscape, including Albatross, Leopard, Whales and of course several species of Penguin.

It is possible to travel ashore by small boats called Zodiacs – numbers on each trip are restricted to ensure the preservation of the area. Knowledgeable guides and experts ensure you gain the maximum enjoyment of your visit.

Ports of call often include:
Deception Island, Paradise Harbor and Port Lockroy.

Extended stays in South America for example, Rio de Janeiro or Buenos Aires are often possible.
