An exciting exploration from Buenos Aires to the Antarctic Peninsula and Falkland Islands
15-day cruise expedition from $4,745* per person.
Map
Sail into the new year amid the awe-inspiring scenery and teeming wildlife of the White Continent. Cruise from Buenos Aires to West Point and Stanley in the Falkland Islands, and through Drake Passage to the Antarctic Peninsula. Go ashore on dramatic Deception Island (perhaps swim in thermal heated waters in Pendulum Cove). Then continue along glacier-lined, Lemaire Channel to Port Lockroy. Next are the hanging ice cliffs at Paradise Harbor and the chinstrap penguins of Half Moon Island. By Zodiac craft we'll make as many landings as possible to explore the magnificent terrain. Return to Ushuaia, having had the adventure of a lifetime.
