ITINERARY
DAY 1
USHUAIA
Nestled in the foothills of the snow-capped Martial Range,
Ushuaia’s colourful streets and mismatched buildings cascade
from the imposing mountains before coming to an abrupt halt at the
shores of the Beagle Channel. As one of the world’s
southernmost cities, Ushuaia carries its ‘end of the
world’ reputation well. The moody weather and dramatic
surroundings certainly help. Board your boutique ship before departing
for your journey through one of the most captivating wilderness regions
of the world.
DAY 2-3
AT SEA
Spend your day at sea enjoying your boutique 5-star ship. Treat
yourself to a spa day, attend an expert-led onboard lecture or enjoy
the ocean views from the deck or the comfort of our Observation Lounge.
DAY 4-7
ANTARCTIC PENINSULA
Among captivating glaciers, majestic icebergs and snowy islands, the
Antarctic Peninsula is where most visitors to the White Continent will
live out their Antarctica dream. The Antarctic Peninsula, the most
accessible area of the continent, hosts several scientific bases and
some of the most interesting wildlife scenery, such as the extremely
photogenic Lemaire Channel. Shore excursions might include Petermann
Island, where among Adelie penguins, blue-eyed shags and skuas, huge,
lumbering elephant seals haul out.
DAY 8-9
AT SEA
You can spend your day at sea enjoying the many facilities available.
Head to the sauna, get in a workout in the state-of-the-art gym or
relax in the jacuzzi whilst taking in incredible views along the way.
If you prefer to learn a little more about your surroundings, listen to
an informative talk or have a chat with one of our knowledgeable
on-board experts.
DAY 10
USHUAIA
Ushuaia is the gateway to the White Continent. Found at the
southernmost tip of South America in Argentinian Patagonia, the city is
often described as “the End of the World”. The
city’s mountain backdrop rises above the harbour and entrance
to the Beagle Channel. The town itself is walkable and has a few small
museums as well as pubs, restaurants and cafes - a good place to try
Patagonian lamb cooked over open fire pits.
