The spirit of the destination

Antarctica – To the ends of the earth, extreme exploration

On the edges of the world, Antarctica offers a rare and extreme travel experience. Between majestic glaciers, absolute silence and immaculate landscapes, this out-of-time earth invites to a deep and unforgettable exploration. Navigating in these ice waters is a breathing experience.

Expeditions to Antarctica allow you to observe the unique fauna, such as the manchots and whales. Every moment spent in this remote region is a reminder of the wild beauty of our planet. It is a journey that promises memories recorded forever in your memory.

Your itinerary, shaped by your wishes

Explore the Universe Beyond the Horizons

Imagine the discovery, concrete

Choose your expedition through the journey's details

A trip to Antarctica begins with a particular relationship with time. Before the glaces, there is transportation and life that settles on board. Then the landscapes appear without a scene: a coast is revealed, a light changes, the program adapts. This availability to what happens belongs to the experience as much as the images expected.

The choice of a shipping should not begin with a list of places to check. Navigation, day rhythm, discoveries and cabin comfort form a set. Two trips with the same region name can offer different experiences; a concrete reading of the program allows you to understand what’s right for you, beyond the decor.

A first discovery of the Antarctic Peninsula

A project toward the peninsula can focus on coastal, mountainous and ice landscapes, depending on the ship's route. Compare the time spent on this area and the functioning of the conditional activities. The possibilities of landing or departure on small boats should not be deducted from a photograph illustrating the journey.

The boarding port and connections also determine the nights before and after the shipment. An arrival margin avoids organizing the journey around a tight correspondence. A step in Argentina can bring a different look to the south of the continent, if it finds its place in the available duration, without depriving sea time of its pace.

Give more time to life on board

You can also choose from your desire for maritime life: observations from the bridge, lectures on the programme, quiet spaces and photography. The ship becomes one of the main places of travel, with a pace and uses to discover, rather than a simple transport between two outlets. His atmosphere and disposition deserve special attention.

This choice requires you to describe your relationship with the sea, your mobility and your expectations for rest. A spacious cabin can count more than an additional activity. The descriptive must distinguish the planned benefits, options and conditional decisions of the team, without announcing an unchanged number of external discoveries every day.

Time in the south

Compare the days in the area searched and shipping. A total of nights does not explain to themselves the place of Antarctic landscapes in the journey.

Observation areas

Bridges, salons and traffic on board influence the days. The pleasure of watching doesn’t just depend on the direction of your cabin window.

Care for the environment

The preparation of clothes and equipment belongs to the stay. Protocols, in particular, limit the transport of organic elements between sites; they must be followed without improvisation.

What changes the journey

Planned sites are not secure dates. Ice, weather, environment and safety can transform the route. Choosing a trip whose navigation and the interpretation of landscapes already attract you allows you to welcome this uncertainty, without considering every change as the loss of a visit erroneously announced as certain or acquired.

How to go to the end of the world?

See the world differently.

The ice takes shapes that we couldn’t wait. An Antarctic expedition requires to choose its rhythm, its ship and its tolerance to the unpredictable, as much as its horizon.

We are looking for the consistency of all the shipping: access, cabin category, sea time and written services. No departure is considered automatic.

Experience the crossing

Maritime travel is part of the expedition, with its conditions.

Observe without imposing

Each output depends on the medium and instructions.

Take time on board

Interpretation of landscapes and preparation of landings enrich the journey.

What is the pace for this experience?

The duration is chosen with the passage and the steps before boarding. Calculate the arrival time, margins and the full schedule, not just the southern days.

How do you connect it with the rest of the trip?

Compare the route, the ship, the planned activities and landing modalities. A photo of the mansions does not describe neither a cabin nor the conditions of the stay. A step in Argentina according to flights, port and available duration.

What precautions should be taken in mind?

Respect environmental rules, animal distances and bio-security protocols. Weather and ice can change the route; safety prime.

Take discovery further

Antarctica: choose an expedition, then let nature write the rest

A piece of ice slowly turns into a bay, a colony of manchots animate the shore, and then silence takes over the whole place. Antarctica is discovered by attention as well as by travel. This trip is aimed at those who accept that a landscape, light or animal encounter cannot be ordered at a fixed time.

The first choice is about the type of navigation and the location given to the departure. The size of the ship, the observation spaces, the direction and the real time spent in the region count more than a long list of names on a map. We distinguish the planned steps from the possibilities that will depend on the conditions encountered on the site.

Two directions to shape your journey

What thread will connect your itinerary?

Ideas for discovery to personalise according to your dates, pace and local possibilities.

The peninsula, for a first polar experience

A expedition to the Antarctic Peninsula allows you to build the journey around ice landscapes, boat outputs and land discoveries when permitted. Each day is organized with the expedition team. The presentations on board help to understand the environments passed, rather than to watch a spectacular, unmarkable decor.

The sea cruise is part of the project and deserves a real discussion about your comfort in the sea. A beautiful ship does not remove neither the hole nor the program changes. We look at the navigation times and the conditions of the excursions so that your enthusiasm is accompanied by a concrete representation of the daily life on board.

A longer journey with a clear purpose

Some projects associate the peninsula with other sub-Antarctic regions, including South Georgia. This construction changes the scale of the journey: more sea, a greater duration and another distribution of the discoveries. It deserves to be chosen for its own landscapes and fauna, rather than as a simple augmented version of a first stay.

Before you keep this direction, you need to compare the number of days announced with the days dedicated to the links. For photographs or polar history enthusiasts, these additional steps can give a strong thread to the path. For other travellers, a more narrow expedition will leave an equally deep impression, with less extensive logistics.

The boat and the experience

Choose according to the outdoor spaces, the comfort of the cabin, the language of the boarding and the organization of the outputs. The proposed activities, their conditions and their possible supplements are checked program by program.

Observe without disturbing

Distance instructions, biosecurity and landing rules protect a fragile environment. The observation of the fauna remains a possibility, never a guaranteed performance; the instructions of the team are primary on the search for a photograph.

A meaningful travel buffer

International flights, arrival to the port and return are co-ordinated with caution. Transition nights and insurance conditions must be considered before the other stay benefits are fixed.

Give the journey the right pace

We prefer a timely arrival to the point of landing and a smooth land program around the expedition. On board, alternating observation, conferences and rest helps to enjoy long or changing days. The rhythm depends on the trip, the sea and the team’s decisions: this flexibility is an integral part of the discovery.

Extend without spreading too thin

A step in Argentina or Chile can give a consistent prolongation depending on the port and flights of the program. Patagonia, however, requires its own nights and transfer times. We avoid converting the return of an intense expedition into a succession of hurry steps, only to add another destination to the booklet.
