Glaciers calving icebergs into pristine bays, penguins by the hundreds in remote rookeries, leopard seal patrolling the waters, whales breaching to spy on your zodiac, hiking to a viewpoint, exploring an old whaling station. These are but some of the experiences that await you on a trip to the Antarctic Peninsula. Camp on the ice, kayak the still waters, witness spectacular sunsets and spectacular landscapes on this journey of a lifetime.
