Day
1, Arrive in Ushuaia
After
a friendly welcome at the airport and a transfer to the luxurious
Arakur Resort & Spa, take some time to unwind or explore the
southernmost city in the world, Ushuaia. Our evening briefing at the
Arakur is your opportunity to ask questions and meet some of your
fellow explorers.
Day
2, All Aboard Seaventure!
Spend
your morning relaxing at the hotel, visiting a museum, or exploring the
shops in Ushuaia, before our mid-afternoon escort to the ship. Our
Expedition Team and ship staff will welcome you on board and get you
settled in, followed by a safety and orientation briefing and our
Captain's welcome dinner. We're on our way to Antarctica!
Day
3-4, Drake Passage
Join
our Polar Experts as they share their vast knowledge of Antarctica,
from its enchanting wildlife to its bold history. Participate in our
pioneering Citizen Science program or sit back and take in this fabled
journey while catching glimpses of rarely seen wildlife. Keep your
binoculars handy to identify the many seabirds that escort our ship as
we cross the Antarctic Convergence into Antarctica's waters and
noticeably cooler temperatures.
Day
5, South Shetland Islands:
The
South Shetlands are 12 islands separated from the Antarctic Peninsula
by The Bransfield Strait. Significant volcanic activity has sculpted a
geology – and a diverse natural beauty – unlike
anywhere else on earth. Here, you can expect a spectacular display of
mountains, glaciers, and wildlife including Chinstrap and Gentoo
penguins; and it's not uncommon to share the water's edge with Elephant
and Fur seals. And this time of year is feeding time for Humpback
whales, so don't be surprised if you're joined
by
a number of them on your day's adventure.
Day
6-8, Antarctica Awaits:
On
to the Antarctic Peninsula, where we'll explore any number of stunning
bays and famed harbors, maneuvering through majestic channels as we
continue to travel these wildlife-rich waters, passing a number of
glorious icebergs along the way. We'll have great opportunities to stop
at several active scientific bases and historic landing sites as we
direct our attention and our cameras toward numerous species of
penguins, seals, and whales along the rugged coastlines and in the sea.
As always throughout this journey, be on the lookout for the impressive
population of Humpback, Minke and Orca whales feeding in the water.
Day
9-10, Drake Passage:
We
leave this magical place and make our way north, once again crossing
the legendary 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
11, 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.
