The Last Great Wilderness
We are delighted to announce our 2011 tour to the Antarctic Peninsula. The towering walls of ice and glistening glaciers of the world’s last untouched continent inspire awe, whilst the abundant summer wildlife of whales, penguins, leopard seals and multitudinous birds contrasts with the mesmerising, trackless landscape.
Tierra del Fuego to Antarctica
We fly to Tierra del Fuego to embark our expedition ship Antarctic Dream. With just 39 outside cabins, all with ensuite facilities, this comfortable ship has been selected because it can get to locations to land passengers for extended visits among the islands and continent of Antarctica which large cruise ships are neither able nor approved by the IAATO to do.
The South Shetlands & Antarctic Peninsula
The cruise crosses the Drake Passage to the magnificent scenery of the South Shetlands and Antarctic Peninsula. Frequent landings enable the group to get close to penguin colonies. This tour is a chance to understand the importance of one of the most remote parts of our planet.
Accompanying scholar
Professor David Walton has been a practicing scientist with
the British Antarctic Survey for 40 years and has visited
many parts of Antarctica.
