Compare Antarctica Trips
A trip to Antarctica is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure for most people, so it’s important to do it right! We have already selected the finest itineraries, ships, and departure dates, but we give you options of different trip lengths and places to visit.
We offer several shorter cruises (8-15 days) that visit the Antarctic Peninsula, which is located just below the southern tip of South America.
For those who have the time (20-21 days), we highly encourage you to include the Falkland Islands and most importantly South Georgia Island, which many people consider the crown jewel of this otherworldly realm.
