An Antarctic cruise is a truly adventurous and spectacular travel experience – a real voyage of a lifetime. For wildlife enthusiasts, the vast white expanse of Antarctic is home to a surprising abundance of wildlife. Whichever Antarctic cruise itinerary you choose, you can expect to see stunning concentrations of Antarctic wildlife, including the largest king penguin colonies on the planet!
The most popular Antarctic cruises vary in duration from 10 to 20 days with departures from November through to March. The shorter voyages visit the Antarctic Peninsula with its dramatic scenery of huge icebergs and glaciers and its abundance of wildlife. Whilst longer voyages visit the South Atlantic Islands as well as the Peninsula, and combine history, scenery and wildlife.
The Antarctic Peninsula consists of an 800 kilometres (500 miles) long mountain chain, the highest peaks rising to approximately 2,800 metres (9,186 feet), and numerous off-lying islands. This region offers the most dramatic scenery and the biggest variety of wildlife in Antarctica. Visitors are overcome by the stunning scenery of glaciers, icebergs, Antarctic mountains, and the abundant and tame wildlife. This 10 day cruise itinerary follows a classic Antarctic route.
