Trips & Tours: Antarctica and Sub-Antarctic Islands Odyssey

 

Antarctica and Sub-Antarctic Islands Odyssey


19 days from USD 9370 (£4708) per person

Places You'll See:

This expedition odyssey takes us first to the Antarctic where fledgling penguins begin to assert their independence and all wildlife prepares for the coming winter. This is an extremely good time of year for whale sightings. From the west coast of the Antarctic Peninsula we head for the little visited South Orkney Islands and then on to South Georgia and the Falklands. It is an amazing voyage of history, stunning scenery, magnificent ice and fascinating wildlife.

Great Reasons To Go

  • The ultimate exploration of the Great White Continent and also the Sub-Antarctic Islands
  • The Antarctic Peninsula and Weddell Sea area is a place of snowy expanses, historic and scientific sites, seal haul-outs and Gentoo, Adelie and Chinstrap penguin colonies
  • Visit South Georgia is a gem of the south where nature rules with stunning scenery and overwhelming King penguin colonies
