14-Day Antarctica Expedition Cruise

An expedition cruise to Antarctica is the ultimate travel experience — a journey to the last truly wild continent on Earth. This 16-day itinerary takes you from the cosmopolitan streets of Buenos Aires to the end of the world at Ushuaia, across the legendary Drake Passage, and into the frozen wonderland of the Antarctic Peninsula. Antarctica is unlike anywhere else: tabular icebergs the size of cities, colonies of thousands of penguins, humpback whales surfacing beside your zodiac, and a silence so profound it changes your perception of the world. The expedition ship carries around 200 passengers with a team of naturalists, marine biologists, and polar historians who lead zodiac landings, kayaking excursions, and lectures that bring the continent to life. You'll make multiple zodiac landings on the Antarctic Peninsula, walking among gentoo and chinstrap penguin colonies, visiting historic research stations, and kayaking through channels lined with blue-white glaciers. The Lemaire Channel — nicknamed 'Kodak Gap' — is a narrow passage between towering ice cliffs that ranks among the most beautiful waterways on Earth. The Drake Passage crossing is two days each way and can be rough, but it's a rite of passage that makes the arrival in Antarctic waters all the more rewarding. Back in Ushuaia, you'll return with memories that redefine what travel can be. This is not a beach holiday — it's an expedition that will change how you see the planet.
