Day
1, Ushuaia
No
need to stress about missed connections or flight delays as you arrive
with plenty of time to unwind and enjoy the beautiful Arakur Resort
& Spa or spend time discovering the southernmost city in the
world, Ushuaia.
Day
2, Ushuaia
Explore
the sights of Ushuaia such as the museums and Argentinean leather
markets or continue relaxing at the hotel. Attend the optional evening
briefing for the opportunity to ask questions and meet some of your
fellow travelers.
Day
3, Embarkation
Spend
your morning exploring Ushuaia or unwinding at the resort until our
mid-afternoon transfer to the ship. Our Expedition Team and ship staff
will greet you on board, followed by a safety and orientation briefing
and Captain’s welcome dinner.
Day
4-5, Drake Passage
Join
our Polar Experts as they teach you about everything Antarctic, from
wildlife to history; participate in our renowned Citizen Science
program; or sit back and take in this fabled journey while catching
exciting glimpses of wildlife. Grab your binoculars to identify the
many seabirds that follow the ship as we cross the Antarctic
Convergence into Antarctic waters and noticeably cooler temperatures.
Day
6, South Shetland Islands
The
volcanic South Shetland Islands offer amazing abundance and beauty, so
we’ll hop into our inflatable Zodiac boats and spend as much
time as possible exploring. Be prepared to marvel up close at
nature’s glory!
Day
7-9, Antarctic Circle
Heading
south across the Bransfield Strait, we sail towards the Antarctic
Circle. From our most southern point (south of the Antarctic Circle),
we’ll start making our way back north, cruising through the
narrow channels of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Day
10-12, Antarctic Peninsula
Heading
north, we’ll explore any number of picturesque bays and famed
harbors, maneuvering through majestic channels as we travel the
wildlife-rich waters. There are great opportunities to stop at several
active scientific bases and historic landing sites as we spot numerous
species of penguins, seals, and whales along the rugged coastlines and
in the sea.
Day
13-14, Drake Passage
We
leave this magical place and make our way north, once again heading
across 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.
Day
15, Ushuaia disembarkation
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.
Sea Venture (Luxury Expedition, 139-guests)
Sea Venture features a 1-A Super ice class rating - the highest ice class awarded to passenger vessels. This means that we will be able to explore coves, bays, and channels that would previously have been forbidden to us.
The ship also offers a host of new activities. There's a sauna, a fitness center, a custom-built citizen science lab, and heated saltwater pool. There is more storage space, which is important because it means we can carry more equipment, so that more of our guests can participate in activities like kayaking, snowshoeing, and camping.
The common areas are larger and beautifully appointed, and the ship has two kitchens, one on the Lido deck for al fresco dining when weather permits.
