About This Activity
An Antarctic expedition cruise offers the rare opportunity to explore one of the most remote and untouched regions on Earth. Sailing from Ushuaia, Argentina, or Punta Arenas, Chile, you'll cross the legendary Drake Passage before entering the realm of towering icebergs, expansive ice shelves, and dramatic mountain ranges. Each day brings new discoveries as you cruise in zodiac boats among ice floes, step onto the Antarctic Peninsula, and visit research stations where scientists share insights about this extraordinary ecosystem. What makes this journey truly special is the abundant wildlife that has adapted to these extreme conditions. Observe multiple penguin species in their colonies, spot leopard and crabeater seals lounging on ice patches, and witness the graceful movements of humpback and minke whales feeding in krill-rich waters. Guided by experienced expedition leaders and naturalists, you'll gain deep understanding of Antarctica's ecological importance and the critical conservation challenges it faces in a changing climate.
