Antarctica by Expedition: Ushuaia to the Peninsula

1 / 1

Antarctica by Expedition: Ushuaia to the Peninsula in Argentina

This 13-day voyage begins in Ushuaia and heads south by ship through the Drake Passage to the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula. It allows extra time in the region, with six days set aside for exploring ice, wildlife, and landing sites when conditions allow. Days at sea include lectures and educational sessions with the expedition team. On land, the focus is on penguin colonies, seals, glaciers, and the changing Antarctic coastline. Shore visits are weather dependent, and the route can adjust to conditions. The program includes one night in Ushuaia, followed by 11 nights aboard the Expedition. Transfers, selected meals, expedition gear, zodiac outings, and guided activities are part of the package.
