An overnight stay here is the ideal way to start your adventure. There are plenty of places to explore, including many parrillas serving authentic Argentine steak. Or maybe you'd like to practice your dance moves in the famous hometown of the tango. Consider arriving a few days early to enjoy the vibrant city, or join an optional pre-voyage program. ...

    Cruising the Chilean Fjords, Chile
    • Cruising the Chilean Fjords, Chile
    Over the next three days, we immerse ourselves in the spectacular waterways of Chilean Patagonia. Our exact route remains flexible, allowing us to respond to weather, ice, and wildlife activity. We'll explore Alberto de Agostini National Park, a remote UNESCO Biosphere Reserve renowned for its towering peaks, pristine fjords, and dynamic glacier systems. Journeying deep into the fjords, we'll approach striking glaciers such as the Garibaldi or Pia, while keeping watch for seals, sea lions, seabirds, and the majestic Andean condor. Our journey may also take us through waterways like the Almirantazgo Sound and Ainsworth Bay, an inlet shaped by the retreating Marinelli Glacier. Time on Zodiac boats brings us closer to wildlife and the rugged shoreline. We'll also navigate the legendary Beagle Channel, a dramatic passage carved between plunging rock walls and icy blue waters. One of the great ambitions of this part of the voyage is reaching Cape Horn, the southernmost headland of the Americas, where the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans collide. Powerful seas and fast-changing weather define this historic maritime landmark. We will attempt a landing and explore this windswept symbol of exploration and endurance. ...
