Description

An immersion in the Southern Ocean’s continent of ice and snow. Fly into King George Island and begin exploring the Antarctic Peninsula. Step ashore, taking Zodiac rides to hard-to-reach landing sites across multiple days. Weave between the Antarctic Sound’s great icebergs drifting north and head for the king penguin colonies of South Georgia — with flashes of orange brightening their tuxedos — before the Drake to Chile.

Itinerary



Day 1 - Days 0 - 2 - Pre Cruise & King George Island
Pre Cruise Benefits - Hotel, Charter flights, Charter flightsKing George Island is the largest of the South Shetland Islands and the closest thing Antarctica has to a gateway. With an airport, more than ten international research stations, and a permanent Russian Orthodox church, it sits just 120 kilometers from the Antarctic Peninsula: the threshold between the familiar world and one defined entirely by ice, wind, and wildlife. Adélie, Chinstrap, and Gentoo Penguins commute between the island and the peninsula; Weddell and leopard seals haul out along the shore. A cruise stop that marks the true beginning of the deep south.
Day 2 - Day 3 - Antarctic Peninsula
The Antarctic Peninsula unravels upwards towards South America, reaching out a beckoning finger to the adventurous, who dare to explore this untamed realm. Witness cathedral-sized icebergs up close, and blue-hued glaciers, slowly slipping from imposing locations like Hope Bay. Stretching up from the heart of the world’s southernmost continent, the Antarctic Peninsula lies a mere 620 miles from Tierra del Fuego and, for many, with luxury Antarctic, unique landscapes, and wildlife adding further depth to the experience, giving the call a strong sense of place.

Day 5 - Day 6 - Antarctic Sound
Antarctic Sound is a compelling stop where few voyages ignite the imagination like a journey down to one of the planet’s most remote, extreme, and enchanting wilderness, Antarctica. An adventure in its purest form, only a handful of people will ever be lucky enough to experience the majestic beauty of these monochrome landscapes first-hand. Watch on, as colonies of Gentoo penguins hop around, and cape petrels sweep overhead, as the continent’s unique wildlife thrives around you, with luxury Antarctic cruise, extraordinary birdlife, and ice shelf adding further depth to the experience, giving.
Day 6 - Day 7 - Elephant Island
Elephant Island is one of Antarctica’s most storied outposts, a bleakly beautiful volcanic island forever linked to Ernest Shackleton’s extraordinary survival saga. Its dark cliffs, glaciers, and storm-lashed shores convey the harsh grandeur of the Southern Ocean, while elephant seals and seabirds underscore the island’s wild isolation. To see it is to encounter both Antarctic history and raw nature at once: an austere, unforgettable landmark at the edge of the world, making the destination feel both refined and memorable.
Day 7 - Day 8 - Day at sea
Days at sea are the perfect opportunity to relax, unwind, and pursue personal interests, whether visiting the gym, the spa, or simply watching for whales from deck. These blue sea days offer an ideal balance to busy days spent exploring ashore.

Day 9 - Day 10 - South Georgia
South Georgia rises from the Southern Ocean in a drama of black peaks and white glaciers, an island of almost surreal natural intensity some 1,400 kilometers east of the Falklands. The beaches at Salisbury Plain and St. Andrews Bay hold King Penguin colonies numbering in the hundreds of thousands, scenes of wildlife abundance that rank among the most extraordinary on Earth. Elephant seals and Antarctic Fur Seals occupy every available shore.

Day 13 - Day 14 - Drake Passage
Drake Passage connects the southern tip of the Americas to Antarctica, dropping off from Cape Horn into icy waters below. Converging warm and cool ocean currents attract spectacular wildlife including soaring albatrosses and pods of humpback and hourglass dolphins. The South Shetland Islands, including Elephant and Deception Island, are typically among the first Antarctic landmasses encountered.

Day 16 - Day 17 - Puerto Williams & Post Cruise
Puerto Williams on Navarino Island claims the title of southernmost city in the world, its dramatic backdrop of the jagged Dientes de Navarino peaks rivalling Torres del Paine for Patagonian grandeur. The Beagle Channel separates the town from Argentine Ushuaia, and the surrounding forests of lenga beech and the endemic flightless steamer duck define this most remote of urban outposts.Post Cruise BenefitsCharter flights
