Antarctica Hosted Journey 2026
Tour Description
Experience the magic of the wildest, most isolated continent on the planet, on a hosted voyage to Antarctica in 2026
Departing from Ushuaia in Argentina, we cross the mighty Drake Passage en-route for the South Shetland Islands, making Zodiac landings at penguin rookeries, historic huts and fascinating lookouts along the way. Weather permitting, our projected landfalls include: King George Island; Deception Island, an active volcano with waters warm enough for a polar swim; and Half Moon Island with nesting Wilson's storm petrels and chinstrap penguins.
Continuing southward, deep into the inlets of Antarctica, we pass the famous Gerlache Strait, where 3000-ft ice cliffs rise straight out of the still water. Zodiac cruising and shore landings enable all expedition guests to set foot several times on the Antarctic continent, as well as the many surrounding sub-Antarctic islands.
A range of optional activities are available to explore Antarctica in new and different ways, such as kayaking, a photography program, camping, snowshoeing and the unforgettable ‘polar plunge’ for the thrill seekers!
Onboard the vessel excitement continues through a series of activities that will keep your brain and body entertained. From a visit to the bridge, fascinating lectures and travel tails from the expeditions team, photography presentations, happy hour drinks, as well as captain's welcome and farewell cocktails, and "fireside chats" with special guests.
