"If Antarctica were music it would be Mozart. Art, and it would be Michelangelo. Literature, and it would be Shakespeare. And yet it is something even greater; the only place on Earth that is still as it should be. May we never tame it."
- Andrew Denton
Mysterious and vast, Antarctica is like no other place on Earth. A land of glittering ice, majestic peaks and dazzling beauty, it is the only continent with no indigenous population. Instead, it has for millions of years been a haven for migratory birds, whales, seals and other marine mammals who come each summer to feast in is food-rich coastal waters. When you choose an Antarctic expedition, you step into a world far removed from your own. Here the sun neither rises nor sets. Icebergs drift. Curious penguin chicks may climb right into your lap. Orcas and humpback whales may breach or spy-hop mere meters away, before fixing their ancient eyes on yours and sinking beneath the sea.
Built for polar sailing all of our ships feature ice-strengthened hulls for superior navigation. With less than 122 passengers and a crew with decades of experience, our ships will get you to some of the most isolated and breathtaking wilderness areas in the world.

Antarctica: Antarctic Express
Quite possibly the best trip I have ever taken. My goal is to go again in the next few years. Every day was an adventure. The scenery was amazing as was the abundance of wildlife.
