Travel with the pioneers of fly & cruise Antarctic voyages, flying in both directions and bypassing a 2-day sail on the Drake Passage. Regular departure dates (Dec - Feb) to choose from. Explore Antarctica aboard a trusty 67 passenger expedition ship renowned for its manoeuvrability and ice capabilities.

Trip Summary

4 full days in Antarctica = 8 planned ‘off ship’ excursions
We like this ship's small size, simple Scandinavian lines & the Panoramic Lounge's 200 degree views
Antarctic operational experience since 2003
Expedition staff to guest ratio of 1:6, which is low and market leading
Kayaking and snowshoeing (additional cost)
Includes pre and post flight hotel nights in Punta Arenas
Exclusive access to Explorers House – your home-from-home private club & expedition centre while in P. Arenas

NOTE: While choosing to fly to/from Antarctica is the most expedient option, it's also more weather dependent than travelling by ship across the Drake Passage. Charter flights to/from Antarctica operate on a very flexible schedule to accommodate the changeable weather conditions. As a result, flight timings may be brought forward or delayed to ensure safe operating conditions. To discuss in more detail, please get in touch. This itinerary is for guidance only, as each voyage will vary depending on ice and weather conditions as well as taking advantage of impromptu wildlife opportunities.
