Antarctica Cruises are an experience unlike anything else. On one of our cruises to Antarctica, you will be able to see the Antarctic Peninsula and some of the South Shetland Islands. Antarctica tours and cruises start either directly from Ushuaia in Argentina’s Patagonia, and pass through the Beagle Channel, Cape Horn, and the Drake Passage, or take a flight first – from Punta Arenas (Chilean Patagonia) to King George Island. Cruising Antarctica means you’ll experience the coldest, highest, southernmost, windiest, driest, and most inhospitable continent. You’ll also have the opportunity to spot fascinating fauna includes penguins, many types of seal, sea lions, seabirds, and whales. We can also arrange pre- and post-cruise tours of Patagonia (Southern Argentina and Chile), where you will find glaciers and lakes, national parks, and snow-capped mountains.
Antarctica cruises range from around 6,000 USD per person to upwards of 30,000 USD per person. It really depends on the ship and duration of the cruise.
There are many cruises to choose from, so there isnt necessarily a best cruise. You should determine what cruise is best for you by asking yourself: a) What is my budget? b) How large or small do I want the number of passengers on the cruise to be? c) When do I want to travel? d) Do I want to fly the Drake Passage using a fly cruise or do I want to sail the Drake Passage? e) How important is it to me to have a luxurious ship with a lot of amenities?
Some of the cruise lines that go to Antarctica are Quark, Oceanwide, Antarctica21, Ponant, Antarpply, and Hurtigruten.
