WHAT’S THIS ADVENTURE ABOUT?
Imagine taking off from mainland Chile and just over 2 hours later – shooting in snow and ice – Antarctica. What an amazing photo adventure! This will be our sixth tour to this incredible part of our planet and our third Fly-Cruise-Fly adventure…
We are offering you a World Photo Adventures exclusive group expedition on the ‘Classic Antarctic Air Cruise’ tour and on a ship that was only launched in 2019. This is a Fly In-Cruise-Fly Out – Antarctic adventure that maximises time to explore this stunning region and minimises long periods at sea. Consequently, you can expect smoother seas and fantastic quality time during this ‘once in a lifetime’ adventure. Our host company – ANTARCTICA XXI – has been operating such tours for well over 15 years and looks forward to helping you have a fantastic Antarctic adventure. Just 68 berths are available! Our small group fits in this number, this offering you an exclusive photo guide.

A fantastic ship package! All your accommodation, with meals and services as per itinerary. You simply need to organise flights and to get yourself to the start of the tour and for the departure. Julia is happy to help you. \
