    Buenos Aires, Argentina
    • Buenos Aires, Argentina
    Home to a proud and diverse community of portenos, or 'people of the port', the city is a fusion of faded European splendor and Latin American panache. An overnight stay in Buenos Aires 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 see all enjoy the vibrant city, or perhaps joining an optional pre-voyage program. ...

    • Ushuaia, Argentina
    Your adventure begins with an early morning flight to Ushuaia. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Martial Glacier, this bustling port city is the capital of Argentina's Tierra del Fuego Province and vies for the title of the world's southernmost city. Your hybrid-powered expedition ship awaits in port. After a briefing from your Expedition Team and picking up your expedition jacket, settle into your cabin and explore the ship before enjoying the first of many delicious meals onboard. Your journey is officially underway. ...

Our Expedition Team will prepare us for what lies ahead, from the history of the island to stories of Norwegian whalers. The Expedition Team will also talk about the IAATO environmental guidelines and sustainability rules that we follow to make our visit as safe and low-impact as possible. ...

    South Georgia Island
    • South Georgia Island
    South Georgia's abundant wildlife has earned it the nickname 'Serengeti of the Southern Ocean'. Its unique position, free from sea ice, makes the island a breeding site for large colonies of penguins, other seabirds, and seals. In fact, it's an Important Bird Area, home to albatrosses, petrels, shags, skuas, and terns. You'll spend four days exploring this remarkable area. We'll also try to reach Grytviken, the final resting place of Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. We're always guided by nature, responding to daily conditions to bring the best possible experience. While our itineraries are always flexible, they're even more so during peak breeding seasons when the wildlife is most vulnerable to disturbance. When opportunities allow, we'll land and wildlife watch. When our presence could disturb the animals, we'll choose another place to visit. These decisions are made by the Expedition Team and are based on lifetimes of combined experience in these destinations. Sometimes we'll land, sometimes we'll cruise, it's all part of the adventure. ...

    After visiting South Georgia, enjoy some time while we head towards Antarctica to relax and reflect on your journey so far. Antarctica is a symbol of global cooperation, dedicated to peace, science, and wildlife conservation. Protected by the Antarctic Treaty, it remains free of military conflict, preserving its pristine environment for future generations. As a hub for scientific research on climate change and ecosystems, it offers unique insights into nature's resilience. Why not join one of the citizen science programs to help collect data for global research projects. ...

    Antarctic Peninsula, Antarctica
    • Antarctic Peninsula, Antarctica
    Another world: Nothing prepares you for your first sight of Antarctica's immense, frozen beauty. Icebergs float in the straits. Gentoo, chinstrap, and Adelie penguins watch upright from the shores. Countless seabirds wheel overhead. Nature is in charge. While we're here, we'll explore several possible landing sites, on and around the Antarctic Peninsula. We might kayak among icebergs, watching for breaching whales, snowshoe to a stunning viewpoint, or cruise in Zodiacs to explore the ice up-close. Bird enthusiasts should look skywards for Antarctic seabirds such as skuas, petrels, and terns. Through onboard lectures and onshore talks, you'll learn more about this precious habitat and how we can all protect it for the future. ...
