Buenos Aires, Argentina

Feel the rhythm of bustling Buenos Aires. Home to a proud and diverse community of portenos, or 'people of the port', Buenos Aires is a sensuous fusion of faded European splendor and Latin American panache. 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 famed birthplace of the tango. Your Expedition Ship will be awaiting you for embarkation. ...

Falkland Islands, Falkland Islands

Enjoy birding and hiking on these green islands. The Falkland archipelago is filled with seamless horizons and white-sand beaches teeming with birdlife. Only the occasional farm dots the landscape amid grassy hills and wildflowers. Enjoy a community walk around Stanley, taking in the Jubilee Villas gardens, Christ Church Cathedral, and the Historic Dockyard Museum. Our landings, hikes, and excursions are - as always - subject to weather conditions. We hope to visit albatross and penguin colonies, where seals can often be found as well, getting as close as possible without disturbing them. ...

South Georgia Island

Visit a wildlife watcher's paradise. 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. Throughout our three days in the area, we'll land as often as we can to explore the wilderness and wildlife. We'll also try to reach Grytviken, the final resting place of Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. Our expedition route will as always be guided by nature, responding to daily conditions to seek out the best possible experience. ...

Time to relax and reflect. After visiting the Falkland Islands and South Georgia, take time to relax and reflect on your journey so far as we head toward Antarctica. Antarctica is a continent dedicated to peace, science, and wildlife. As we approach, the Expedition Team will talk about the IAATO environmental guidelines and sustainability rules that we follow when visiting. We leave nothing but footprints and take nothing but pictures. ...

Cruising Antarctica, Antarctica

Experience Antarctica in all its majesty. Nothing prepares you for your first sight of Antarctica's immense, frozen beauty. Icebergs, sculpted by nature, float in the straits. Gentoo, chinstrap, and Adelie penguins watch erect from the shores. Countless seabirds wheel overhead. Nature is in charge. You'll spend five exciting days exploring several possible landing sites, on and around the Antarctic Peninsula and South Shetland Islands. Wherever we go and whatever we do, each day will offer something different and thrilling. We might sail into a flooded volcanic caldera or land in icy bays, where remnants of whaling paraphernalia lie abandoned. You may also get a chance to go kayaking among icebergs and seals, or snowshoe to a stunning viewpoint. 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. ...

Drake Passage, Antarctica

Looking for land ahead. Five unforgettable days in Antarctica are over, and your ship now embarks upon our final adventure together: the Drake Passage. Known for its potentially high winds and strong currents, the passage can also be silent and still, inspiring the nicknames 'The Drake Shake' and 'The Drake Lake' respectively. But don't worry, even if we experience rough seas, your ship is perfectly equipped for this leg of the adventure exploring the Southern Ocean. During our crossing, the Expedition Team will recap our experiences, making it possible to keep your head in the Falklands, South Georgia, and Antarctica a little while longer. ...
