This iconic wilderness at the end of the Earth is the epitome of the adventure destination. Sailing “off the map” to areas only discovered within the last hundred years, makes Antarctica the must-do itinerary for all serious expedition cruisers.
Expeditions to Antarctica take several forms. The simplest are short itineraries of perhaps a week to ten days to the Antarctic Peninsula from Ushuaia at the very bottom of South America. More ambitious journeys will be by icebreaker, way below the Antarctic Circle to places like McMurdo Sound and Commonwealth Bay. These voyages generally leave from either Tasmania or New Zealand but entail more time at sea in potentially rough conditions.
