Fly from Buenos Aires to Ushaia
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 on board. Your journey is officially underway.

Sail the South Atlantic
Sailing from Ushuaia, we will journey towards the far-flung shores of South Georgia, one of the most wildlife rich places on the planet. Our Expedition Team will prepare you 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 your visit as safe and low-impact as possible.
7-10
South Georgia
South Georgia, the ‘Serengeti of the Southern Ocean’, is a wildlife haven, home to vast colonies of penguins, seals and seabirds, including albatrosses, petrels, skuas and terns. Spend four days exploring this remarkable wilderness, with the chance to visit Grytviken, final resting place of Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. Guided by nature, our flexible itineraries adapt to daily conditions and wildlife needs. Our Expedition Team decides when and where to land, or when to cruise for wildlife watching—ensuring every encounter is responsible, rewarding and unique.
11-12
Sailing towards Antarctica
After South Georgia, relax and reflect as we sail towards Antarctica. Protected by the Antarctic Treaty, this pristine wilderness is dedicated to peace, science and wildlife conservation. A vital hub for climate and ecosystem research, Antarctica offers unique insights into nature’s resilience. Take part in our Citizen Science programmes and contribute to global research.
13-16
Antarctica - the Seventh Continent
Nothing prepares you for your first sight of Antarctica’s breathtaking frozen wilderness. Watch penguins and seabirds along the shores as icebergs drift through the straits. Explore the Antarctic Peninsula by Zodiac, kayak or on foot, with opportunities to see whales, penguins and abundant seabirds. Onboard lectures and onshore talks offer fascinating insights into this remarkable habitat and how we can help protect it.
17-18
Cruise the Drake Passage
As we leave the Frozen Continent, sail north through the Drake Passage towards Ushuaia. Reflect on your South Georgia and Antarctica adventures while relaxing in the hot tubs, sauna or Explorer Lounge & Bar. Beyond the Drake Passage, enter the scenic Beagle Channel, where dramatic mountains plunge into icy waters. Keep watch for Patagonian wildlife as we sail through this remote wilderness.

Ushuaia and fly to Buenos Aires and fly to UK
