Embark on a truly immersive Antarctica experience. See Antarctica's magical mountains and glorious glaciers, watch icebergs drift by and seek out penguins, whales, seabirds, and seals. With the ship as your base, spend days kayaking, snowshoeing, mountaineering or even camping out, returning to the comfort of your cabin to refuel for the next day's adventures. This 13-day journey crosses the legendary Drake Passage and gives you a full week in Antarctica, spending multiple days in one location so you can thoroughly explore it however you like. Traditional Zodiac and shoreline excursions are always available, and more challenging adventures are offered depending on conditions. Kick your Antarctic adventure up a notch and make extraordinary memories.

Highlights:
  • Explore by snowshoe, kayak, mountaineering ropes, or even camping out, all from your shipboard base
  • Anchor in beautiful bays with a full week to get out on the water and forge inland by foot—it's all included!
  • Watch for whales, penguins, seals, petrels, and albatrosses in iconic channels and on hidden islands

Important Trip Details:
You can expect 1 or 2 half-day excursions for each day in Antarctica depending on weather conditions. During guided shore excursions, guests break up into smaller special interest groups with several options ranging from an easy shoreline walk to snowshoeing, kayaking and more strenuous hiking (1-3 hours.) Excursions may include a Zodiac cruise to observe icebergs and wildlife (1-1.5 hours.)

Begin the tour by driving along National Route N3, crossing the valley of the Pipo River and the foothills of Mount Susana, to the train station located in the area where the inmates of the old prison collected firewood.
 
The little steam train will wind along the trail that the prison train used to follow over bridges, swampy areas, and green valleys, making a short stop at La Macarena waterfall. On completion of the train ride and already in the Tierra del Fuego National Park, drive through the most attractive landscapes of the park, such as Lake Roca and Bahía Lapataia (where the National Route N3, part of the Pan-American Highway ends).
