Antarctica Cruise

The flight leaves Buenos Aires in the morning which gives a few hours for leisure in Ushuaia, the southernmost town in the world before the voyage departs from the Island of Tierra del Fuego in the afternoon. After the included excursion to Ushuaia National Park, embark the Fram.

Named after Sir Francis Drake, the Drake Passage is one of the world’s great seaways, connecting the waters of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Infamous and legendary, it is steeped in the history and lore of exploration and discovery and, as your vessel comfortably negotiates its way south, there will be a chance to enjoy a series of educational lectures en route.

Once you cross the Antarctic Convergence you will start to feel the air getting crisper and colder. Antarctic penguins will hunt and play around you and icebergs are an ever present feature of the landscape. Dedicated to scientific research and with no permanent inhabitants, Antarctica is home to millions of penguins and its seas provide sustenance to thousands of whales. Simple words cannot convey the feeling of being here, looking out across the vast emptiness of the great white continent. The ice, wind and weather dictate life in Antarctica, as well as your route. Every voyage is unique and your experienced crew endeavor to make each one an experience of a lifetime. The final choice of landings will be made in the course of the voyage.

As the bow points north, you carry with you an incredible collection of memories and, heading across the Drake Passage, the journey back permits an opportunity to share these with your fellow passengers.

After a spectacular voyage with countless impressions, dock at the world’s southernmost town before transferring to Ushuaia airport for your charter flight to Buenos Aires.
