    Falkland Islands, Falkland Islands
    • Falkland Islands, Falkland Islands
    Enjoy birding and hiking on these green islands. The Falkland archipelago is filled with seamless horizons and white-sand beaches teeming with birdlife. Only the occasional farm dots the landscape. Here, you'll find grassy hills and wildflowers in contrast to the vast whiteness that's to come in Antarctica. You can also enjoy a community walk of Stanley, taking in the Jubilee Villas gardens, Christ Church Cathedral, and the Historic Dockyard Museum. Our landings, hikes, and excursions are - as always - subject to weather conditions. We hope to visit albatross and penguin colonies, where seals can often be found as well, and to get as close as possible without disturbing them. ...

    South Georgia Island
    • South Georgia Island
    Visit a wildlife watcher's paradise. South Georgia's abundant wildlife has earned it the nickname 'Serengeti of the Southern Ocean'. Its unique position, free from sea ice, makes the island an ideal breeding site for large colonies of penguins, other seabirds, and seals. In fact, it is listed as an Important Bird Area, home to albatrosses, petrels, shags, skuas, and terns. You'll spend five days exploring this remarkable area. We'll also try to reach Grytviken, the final resting place of Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. We're always guided by nature and we adapt to daily conditions to bring the best possible experience. While our itineraries are always flexible, they're even more so during peak breeding seasons, when the wildlife is most vulnerable to disturbance. When it's safe to do so, we'll watch for wildlife. When our presence could disturb the animals, we'll choose another place to visit. As always, these decisions are made by your Expedition Team and are based on lifetimes of combined experience in these destinations. Sometimes we'll land and sometimes we'll cruise - it's all part of the adventure! ...

    Cruising Antarctica, Antarctica
    • Cruising Antarctica, Antarctica
    Experience Antarctica in all its majesty. Nothing prepares you for your first sight of Antarctica's immense, frozen beauty. Icebergs, sculpted by nature, float in the straits. Gentoo, chinstrap, and Adelie penguins watch from the shores. Countless seabirds wheel overhead. Nature is in charge. During the next five days, you'll explore several possible landing sites on and around the Antarctic Peninsula and South Shetland Islands. It doesn't matter where we go or what we do, every day will be thrilling and unlike anything you've experienced before. We might sail into a flooded volcanic caldera or land in icy bays where remnants of whaling paraphernalia lie abandoned. You may also have the chance to kayak among icebergs and seals or snowshoe to a stunning viewpoint. Bird enthusiasts should look skyward for Antarctic seabirds such as skuas, petrels, and terns. Through onboard lectures and onshore talks, you'll learn more about this precious habitat and discover how we can all protect it for the future. ...
