Watch giant tabular icebergs float past, and lookout for emperor penguins – a rare sight on any other Antarctic cruise.

  • Ushuaia, nestled amidst the stunning backdrop of the Martial Range and Beagle Channel, serves as the perfect gateway to embark on an unforgettable journey through the captivating wilderness of the Antarctic Peninsula.
  • Explore the Antarctic Peninsula's awe-inspiring landscapes, from towering glaciers to majestic icebergs, and encounter diverse wildlife such as Adelie penguins and elephant seals during shore excursions in this accessible and scenic region of the White Continent.
  • Whether admiring breathtaking sea views from the ship's deck, indulging in spa treatments, or delving into onboard learning resources, days at sea offer a perfect blend of relaxation and enrichment amidst the endless comforts of the voyage.
