ANTARCTIC CRUISES
 

Remember that Antarctic summer is the Northern Hemisphere winter, and the best cruise season is from late November to early March. If you go early in the season it is the courting time for penguins and seabirds and you see spectacular courtship rituals. If you include the Falklands and South Georgia, you will see spring wildflowers blooming. Later, the second half of December and January are usually warmest and days are longer. Antarctic chicks are hatching, and you can see seal pups on South Georgia and the Falklands. In February and March whale sightings are at their best, and receding pack ice allows ships to explore further south. Our associates will help you find the perfect expedition to Antarctica.  Just complete the form below and an Antarctic expedition expert will contact you and will assist you with all aspects of the planning process. We can also arrange for you to fly to Antarctica from Punta Arenas to a ship waiting at King George Island to go to Antarctica, avoiding several days at sea and the Drake Passage to reach Antarctica.
