Antarctica In-Depth
Journey to the farthest reaches of the world on a 12-night expedition aboard Scenic Cruises’ Scenic Eclipse, from Buenos Aires to Antarctica and back.
Begin with an overnight stay in Buenos Aires before a charter flight takes you to Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world, where your polar expedition begins. From there, you’ll cross the legendary Drake Passage and spend six full nights exploring the pristine wilderness of the Antarctic Peninsula, where towering glaciers, sculpted icebergs, and colonies of penguins create a landscape unlike any other on Earth. Cross the Drake Passage once more before returning to Ushuaia and flying back to Buenos Aires.
Sailing aboard Scenic Eclipse is an experience in itself. Purpose-built for polar exploration, this state-of-the-art discovery yacht offers the highest standards of safety and comfort, with oversized stabilizers for smoother sailing, expansive observation decks for panoramic views, and a custom-designed marina for effortless Zodiac and kayak access.
