01 / Explore Antarctica
The Antarctic Peninsula
The peninsula is the focus of many first expeditions, combining dramatic ice, mountains and opportunities to observe wildlife. Daily plans respond to sea, wind and ice conditions. Zodiacs and guided shore visits bring a different perspective from sightseeing on a conventional cruise. Flexibility is part of the experience, not a flaw in the itinerary.
Look closely at the number of expedition days, rather than only the total trip length.

South Shetland Islands
The islands north of the peninsula often form part of an expedition route. Rocky shores, volcanic landscapes and seabird colonies contrast with the mainland’s sweeping ice. Landings depend on local conditions and operating permissions. We help you understand the activity level, boarding procedures and clothing requirements before you choose a voyage.
Landing participation and optional activities have operator-specific requirements.

South Georgia & the Falklands
Longer itineraries can add subantarctic islands with remarkable wildlife and human history. South Georgia’s king penguin colonies are a very different experience from a short peninsula itinerary. The additional sea days and distance are meaningful considerations. This is a route for travelers who want deeper immersion and are comfortable with a longer expedition.
Allow enough time for the route you truly want; these islands are not quick add-ons.
