Get an insight into the area’s fascinating history and reveal some of the haunting relics and memorials of war. The colourful seaside town and capital, Port Stanley, boasts many reminders of its British heritage including a selection of traditional English-style pubs, old red phone boxes and numerous Land Rovers.
Embark on this Antarctica cruise from Ushuaia, the end of the world. On this 20-Day voyage you'll explore the Falkland Islands, the wildlife mecca of South Georgia and Antarctica, the white continent. Follow in the path of the Antarctic explorers on this small ship expedition cruise and travel onboard the MS Seaventure. You will spend more time off ship, with twice daily shore excursions and cruising by zodiac. Don't miss out on the ultimate adventure of a lifetime.
After a friendly welcome at the airport and a transfer to the luxurious Arakur Resort & Spa, take some time to unwind or explore the southernmost city in the world, Ushuaia. Our evening briefing at the Arakur is your opportunity to ask questions and meet some of your fellow explorers.
Spend your morning relaxing at the hotel, visiting a museum, or exploring the shops in Ushuaia, before our mid-afternoon escort to the ship. Our Expedition Team and ship staff will welcome you on board and help you get settled in, followed by a safety and orientation briefing and our Captain’s welcome dinner. We’re on our way to Antarctica!
As we sail south, important briefings on environmental regulations and expedition safety are held, and you won’t want to miss our scientific and environmental experts as they begin their deeply knowledgeable and always entertaining talks about the wildlife, history, and geology of the areas we will soon be exploring.
We’ll be exploring some of the westernmost settled outposts in the Falklands, a remote South Atlantic archipelago renowned for its rugged terrain and cliff-lined coast. As we stretch our legs along the farmland and beaches, we’ll have an opportunity to visit Albatross and penguin colonies. Look for Rockhopper, King, and Magellanic penguin rookeries.
The archipelago’s largest island, Stanley, is a lively hub of activity nestled in a sheltered harbor. Here, the Falklands Islands Museum has fascinating exhibits devoted to maritime exploration, natural history, and the 1982 Falklands War. We’ll likely visit Gypsy Cove, part of the Cape Pembroke Peninsula, a National Nature Preserve. Magellanic penguins, also known as Jackass penguins for the braying sound they make, breed here, nesting in underground burrows. Other native bird species include Black-Crowned Night Herons, Long-Tailed Meadowlarks, Two-Banded Plovers, and Upland and Kelp Geese. Nearby Ordnance Point is the final resting place for several World War II guns.
Things continue ramping up with plenty of birdlife sightings as we make our way east across the Antarctic Convergence and officially enter Antarctic waters. See if you can identify the world’s largest bird, the Wandering Albatross. From soaring giants like the Southern Giant Petrel to the tiny Wilson’s Storm Petrel, a range of impressive bird species will be hitching a ride on the updrafts created by ocean swells and waves. Be on the lookout for whale blows and our very first iceberg sighting.
South Georgia is often referred to as the ‘Serengeti of the Southern Ocean,’ and it’s easy to see why as you take in tens of millions (not a typo!) of breeding penguins, seals, and seabirds. Breathtaking mountain scenery, majestically sculpted icebergs, glaciers in every direction, and a rich historical tapestry all complement the incredible array of wildlife on view as we travel down South Georgia's leeward coast. We’ll also visit the historic Grytviken whaling station, featuring the tiny graveyard where the great Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton is buried.
Heading farther south, we’ll continue our informative presentations and wildlife spotting as the icebergs become bigger and more plentiful.
Here we’ll explore numerous picturesque bays and famed harbors, maneuvering through iceberg-rich channels as we travel alongside an array of wildlife. There are opportunities to stop at several active scientific bases and historic landing sites as we take in the wide range of penguin species, seals, and whales along the rugged coastlines and in the sea.
We leave this magical place and make our way north, once again crossing the Antarctic Convergence and the Drake Passage. We have one last hurrah as we celebrate the conclusion of our expedition with a special slideshow and a final meal together.
With huge smiles on weary, content faces, we disembark in the morning, letting you catch a flight to Buenos Aires or stay in Ushuaia for more sights and adventure.
You will undertake this voyage on board the MS Seaventure, this premium state of the art vessel features the highest degree of comfort to provide an incredible cruising experience
See a range of penguin colonies of several species and observe their fascinating and comical behaviours. In South Georgia the colonies can number into the tens of thousands.
Observe the pristine beauty of the 7th continent while catching amazing views of whales, leopard seals, and amazing icebergs
South Georgia and the sub-Antarctic Falkland Islands are home to some of the planet's most distinctive and abundant fauna. Thousands of penguins, fur seals and elephant seals swarm the beaches revealing one of the most breathtaking natural vistas you will ever see.
With the highest ice class rating and modern German-Japanese design, the MS Seaventure offers a smooth and comfortable experience across the Drake. Taking only 138 guests, this ship offers a friendly and welcoming Antarctic experience, paired with a high crew-to-guest ratio, gourmet dining, and a huge wraparound deck, ideal for photography and citizen science. Speed and comfort Optimised entirely for Antarctic voyages, the heavy steel of the MS Seaventure cuts through the Drake Passage with ease. State-of-the-art marine retractable stabilisers reduce movement significantly inside the ship, rendering the voyage across the Drake not only more efficient but smoother than most other expedition ships. Education and science focused Citizen science is world-class on the MS Seaventure with six separate projects throughout the journey. Each guest on board can be involved and gain a deep understanding of the location whilst sending data back to significant scientific organisations to help with their critical research on Antarctica. Each journey also offers onboard scientific and educational lectures. Friendly and inclusive travel environment This is not an 'us and them' cruise; your expedition crew will dine with guests during meal times, sharing their personal insights into Antarctica and getting to know the people they are travelling with. Breaking down walls and building a more family feel as you travel to the most enigmatic place on earth - together. 7:1 traveller to expedition staff ratio Thanks to a 7:1 traveller to expedition staff ratio, coordinating excursions is the number one priority and unless weather conditions prevent it, guests will spend up to six hours a day off the ship and immersed in Antarctica. Spacious outdoor viewing A full wraparound deck, close to the water, is a must have in Antarctica and a photographer's dream. The MS Seaventure's deck is on the lower decks, offering brilliant viewing of wildlife and Antarctica as it happens in 360 degrees. That way, you won't be stuck in only one space and when the captain announces ‘orcas’, you can be outside in a flash! Luxury amenities and inviting cabins The rooms are designed to cater for all tastes and include many balcony rooms on the higher levels, away from ocean spray that can be encountered on the Drake Passage, offering higher comfort and security for deluxe travellers. You’ll also enjoy exceptional cuisine and lots of common areas for lectures and socialising. Enhance your immersive experience with an optional activity in Antarctica whilst travelling on the MS Seaventure. Kayaking & Camping are at an extra cost but, due to their popularity, are limited in space and can book out quickly. WHY WE LOVE THE MS SEAVENTURE
