    Over nine days, cross the legendary Drake Passage and explore the Antarctic Peninsula. Venture beyond the ship aboard Zodiacs, cruise alongside hunting leopard seals, and hike past colonies of Gentoo penguins in their pristine natural environment.

    Experience the perfect balance between rugged adventure and world-class hospitality as you discover the landscapes and wildlife of the Seventh Continent. Antarctica is waiting.

    Map & Itinerary

    Day 1Ushuaia, Argentina

    Arrive at the edge of the world in the planet’s southernmost city. Wander the colourful streets of Ushuaia or escape into the raw wilderness of Tierra del Fuego before boarding your expedition vessel. We’ll gather for a special welcome ceremony, then set sail through the breathtaking Beagle Channel as the adventure truly begins.

    Day 2-3Crossing the Drake Passage

    We depart into the legendary Drake Passage, where the journey becomes part of the story. Over the next two days, immerse yourself in expert-led lectures, mastermind sessions, and wildlife spotting—watching seabirds soar and whales surface alongside the ship. Prepare for your first Antarctic landings with biosecurity protocols and educational briefings, as anticipation builds for the moment you set foot on the White Continent.

    Day 4-7Antarctic Peninsula & South Shetland Islands

    Welcome to Antarctica. Touch down on the most remote continent on Earth via Zodiac landings onto pristine, ice-covered shores. Come face-to-face with vast penguin colonies, spot whales in their natural habitat, and cruise through fields of sculpted icebergs that defy imagination. From the volcanic shores of Deception Island to the soaring cliffs of the Gerlache Strait, every moment feels otherworldly.

    Day 7-8Return via the Drake Passage

    As we journey north, the pace softens and reflection begins. Sink into the hot tub, indulge in the spa, and take space to process the profound moments you’ve experienced. Over the next two days, continue with intimate Mastermind sessions and final expert-led lectures, celebrating shared insights, stories, and the unforgettable journey you’ve just completed.

    Day 9Ushuaia Disembarkation

    We return to Ushuaia, where the journey began, but you arrive back transformed. Farewell new friends with a heart full of awe and memories captured that will stay with you long after you’ve returned home.
