Sail iceberg-dotted waters on an epic journey from Ushuaia to the White Continent, spotting magical wildlife along the way
Visit Antarctica and you'll discover a land of seemingly endless
unspoilt scenery, dramatic weather, towering icebergs and majestic
marine life. This is a destination like no other and our voyage to
the virtually uninhabited continent will be a truly unforgettable
experience.
You'll start your journey in Buenos Aires, Argentina's bustling
capital, where you'll have some time to explore the city known as
the 'Paris of South America'. Then it's on to Ushuaia, in
Argentina's southernmost region, where you'll embark your
state-of-the-art custom-built expedition ship, MS Roald
Amundsen.
As you cruise from Ushuaia to Antarctica through the fascinating
Drake Passage, the onboard team will equip you with all you need to
make the most of your polar expedition.
As always, nature is in charge. Your expert expedition team will
travel with you and monitor conditions to give you the best
adventure possible, with opportunities for kayaking, ice cruising,
whale watching, hiking and more.
As you sail, you can learn more about the White Continent by
joining lectures in the dedicated onboard Science Centre. Here,
experts will talk passionately about Antarctica's history and the
science of its unique landscapes. You'll also get the chance to
talk to the onboard photographer, who'll provide helpful tips on
capturing the wildlife and landscapes that await you in
Antarctica.
After five days exploring Antarctica, you'll head north,
crossing the Drake Passage to the Falklands to explore the rolling
green hills and white sands of the picturesque archipelago. A warm
welcome awaits you in the capital Stanley. There'll also be visits
to the penguin and fur seal colonies that populate the shores.
During your time on board, you'll also be able to soak in
breathtaking views from the comfort of a hot tub, the infinity
pool, the spectacular panoramic sauna or the observation deck. You
may even spot humpback, orca, minke, and fin whales as you
sail.
