Overview

Sail deep into Antarctica ’ s furthest reaches on this spellbinding adventure of a lifetime . The ice on the Weddell Sea is too thick to navigate for most of the year , so only the lucky few get to experience this phenomenal corner of Antarctica . Watch massive tabular icebergs float past and watch out for emperor penguins – a rare sight on any other Antarctic cruise .
The Weddell Sea is steeped in polar history – it was here that Ernest Shackleton ’ s ship , Endurance , became trapped in the ice over 100 years ago . Take your Antarctica exploration to the next level on this unforgettable voyage .
