Cruising Antarctica, Antarctica
At once ethereal and majestic, Antarctica has inspired explorers and adventurers for centuries. In this icy wilderness, marvel at icebergs glimmering in serene bays and mountains cloaked in white, rising from the mainland basalt cliffs. These stunning landscapes evoke both utter tranquility as fur seals lounge on a floating sheet of ice, and breathtaking drama as glaciers thunderously calve into the sea. In these cold and nutrient-rich waters, humpback, fin, and giant blue whales have been known to greet expedition ships that venture into their habitat. ... Read More

Ushuaia, Argentina
The "city at the end of the world" is one of the planet's most breathtaking destinations; Andean peaks, pristine lakes, and boreal forests create a dramatic backdrop, surrounding this captivating coastal town. Although Ushuaia lies more than 600 miles north of Antarctica, the city's port is still the closest to the "Last Continent" and the starting point for its exploration. The majesty of Antarctica's landscape attracts visitors seeking adventure, with its packed ice plains, rugged mountains, and abundance of wildlife, such as whales, seals, and various species of penguin.
