Journey south to explore the last great wilderness.
Aboard a 75-foot expedition yacht, with no more than seven passengers, witness the enormity of a humpback whale as it surfaces nearby. This tour offers an intimate and raw Antarctic experience as your yacht deftly navigates the iceberg-dotted coves and beaches of the White Continent. Ten full days of sailing include camping for up to three days in true isolation, enjoying profound silence punctuated by the voices of penguins, seals and albatross, and the thunder of calving icebergs. With a total of 17 days, you’ll also have time to explore Ushuaia or Punta Arenas.
This trip is for the most intrepid Antarctic explorers.

An abundance of cultural treasures
Traveling across Europe opens your eyes to a world of unparalleled culture and history. It often seems impossible to choose between the Renaissance art of Florence and the Impressionist paintings of Paris; Germany’s Bavarian castles and the bustling multicultural London streets. The wealth of knowledge acquired in Europe is an asset of a lifetime – its only rivals being the people and food you’ll encounter along the way! Close proximity of individual countries makes it easy to incorporate any number of them into your trip, while each country is more than worthy of a focused, extended stay as you immerse yourself in the culture and communities.
The Possibilities Are Endless

The endless opportunities of the land will leave you wanting to discover more.
