Embark on a thrilling cruise-expedition to the White Continent.
From Ushuaia,
sail through Drake Passage to the spectacular Antarctic Peninsula.
Go ashore on Deception
Island (a volcanic caldera where you may actually swim in
steam-heated waters). Then continue along magnificent Lemaire
Channel to Port
Lockroy. And proceed to vistas even more dazzling: the
towering ice cliffs at Paradise
Harbor, spectacular Neumayer Channel and the vast penguin rookery on
Half
Moon Island. Zodiac landing craft will take us ashore in small
groups as often as possible. By the time we return to Ushuaia
in Argentina's Tierra del Fuego, you will know you have traveled
through some of the most glorious scenery on earth.
*Price includes advance
purchased discount. Port charges, taxes and air add-ons are
