Summary

Discover all that Antarctica has to offer on this epic 24-day expedition that explores the Falkland Islands, South Georgia islands and the Antarctic peninsula, including crossing the rarely seen Antarctic Circle! This is our longest Antarctica trip available – a voyage of discovery aboard the Ocean Nova, where you’ll marvel at spectacularly rugged landscapes, thousands of king penguins and the abundant wildlife of the south. Glide through ice floes in a Zodiac with your Expedition Team and take part in fascinating educational presentations. Keep your eye out for predatory seals, wandering albatross and migrating whales as you pass by towering ice-blue glaciers and icebergs. Round this unforgettable adventure off by reaching latitude 66°33’S, as you cross the fabled Antarctic Circle. With optional adventures like camping on the ice (there’s no better spot to experience the sound of silence) and day paddling across icy waters, this journey of discovery and mateship is sure to be the trip of a lifetime.
