Adventures in Antarctica
Tour Description
Take a 12 day Antarctica cruise on the MS Seaventure - an adventure, but in comfort!
Explore Antarctica, the world’s last frontier and it's last pristine wilderness. Accompanied by expert guides who will educate and delight you on everything there is to know about the polar region, your Antarctica cruise will take you across the legendary Drake Passage and around the South Shetland Islands and Antarctic Peninsula.
Shore excursions by Zodiac will take you through ice-filled channels, around beautifully-shaped icebergs and vast glaciers, and in the shadow of imposing mountains. Added to this breathtaking scenery are the spectacular wildlife encounters, both at sea and on land. Scores of penguins of many varieties dot the shore and ice floes, seals laze on the beaches of the South Shetland Islands, minke and humpback whales feed in the nutrient-rich waters, countless numbers of seabirds fill the skies and seals and sea lions zoom in and around the ice. Your Antarctica cruise will leave you with unforgettable memories of this incredible place.
There are opportunities to walk on the continent of Antarctica, get tips from the onboard professional photographer, participate in citizen science research and help make a difference in the world. If you are keen to kayak in this outstanding wilderness, be sure to book in early!
The Seaventure will take you to Antarctica in comfort, all outside-facing staterooms (some with balconies), a heated salt-water swimming pool and only 149 passengers onboard.
