This voyage is for those who want the ultimate in Antarctica experiences:

  • Spend nine days exploring Antarctica, visiting the South Shetland Islands, Antarctic Sound, Weddell Sea, Gerlache Strait and Penola Strait, beginning and ending in Buenos Aires.
  • Travel beyond the ordinary routes and visit exclusive and secluded areas.
  • Experience every facet of Antarctica and have enough time to savor every unforgettable moment. 

More exploration than any other Antarctic Peninsula voyage.
