The remote Falkland Islands
Set sail from Buenos Aires and explore the rolling green hills and white sands of the picturesque Falklands archipelago. A warm welcome awaits you in the capital Stanley and you’ll visit the albatross, penguin and seal colonies that thrive on these remote shores.
The frozen continent
Continuing through iceberg-filled waters, we’ll head towards the ethereal splendour of Antarctica, spotting penguins, seals and whales along the way. During our six days in this pristine wilderness, our route will be guided by nature, and each sunrise will offer something different and thrilling, including kayaking, ice-cruising, hiking and more.
