What makes this trip unique?

Your journey to Antarctica begins with your arrival in Chile, followed by a connecting flight to Punta Arenas the southern gateway to the White Continent.
Prior to departure, all travelers participate in a mandatory expedition briefing, where essential operational, environmental and safety protocols are introduced.

Quality Time

By flying across the Drake Passage, all of our time is spent in Antarctica. The two weeks are two weeks in the ice, with the icebergs, the whales, and the penguins. If there are a few days of snow, then within two weeks there is a high chance you’ll get a few great days of sun. Hoping for a great high latitude sunset or two? By having two weeks, you increase your chances of experiencing it. Two weeks allows us the chance to feel the rhythm of Antarctica, to notice changes, and to observe the details and differences of each penguin colony.
