Antarctica Cruises
It is a profound experience to set eyes upon Antarctica for the first time. Breathtaking vistas, otherworldly wildlife and the journey itself leave an indelible mark on visitors. Here is a land of paradoxes: the world's biggest desert that is also the world's largest ice sheet, nearly two miles thick. Virtually unexplored just 150 years ago, this continent belongs to no nation, and is protected by an international treaty for peaceful scientific pursuit.

Highlights of Antarctica Cruises
Few places are as otherworldly as Antarctica, with its raw sculpted landscapes awash in blue and white. Here nature is at its most flawless—an experience sure to transform visitors. The ideal time to explore is the Antarctic summer, starting in November when cold, windy weather turns to 24-hour sunlight and temperatures rise to a comfortable 32° F. The ice melts, unlocking frozen seaways. Activities maximize your interaction and virtually all are included: explore by Special Operation Boats, kayak, submarine, zodiac and more. Here are some highlights you may experience during your journey:
- Catch a glimpse of Gentoo penguins, Weddel seals and blue whales
- Shore landings offer amazing opportunities for wildlife viewing
- Included Special Operation Boats excursions present stunning scenery for photos
- Cross-country ski or snowshoe into the peninsula’s interior
- Excursions include an undersea dive in a panoramic submarine
- As a citizen scientist, assist onboard scientists with research
- Gain bragging rights for crossing the legendary Drake Passage
