I asked my friend Martin Johnson who runs polar Roots a dedicated Antarctic and Artic travel agency to help me identify the most budget friendly ways to get there

first go at cheaper times of the year because they do exist October November the start of the season and March the end of the season tend to be the cheapest times to go

I recommend focusing on the most Classic itinery this is the an Arctic Peninsula and South shetland's Route usually lasting 10 nights and sailing from a shire

YouTube Video Description↓

While the cheapest way to go to Antarctica is on a regular cruise line and ship sailing past the Antarctic Peninsula as part of a South America itinerary, there is a huge catch making it less fulfilling as you do not get to land or do zodiac rides to get close to wildlife. For a true Antarctic experience, an expedition cruise is the way to go. However, as the cost of these cruises is prohibitive to most, I asked my friend, Martin Johnson who runs Polar Routes (a dedicated Antarctic and Arctic travel agency), to help me identify the most budget-friendly ways to get there. And in this I share how you can cruise to Antarctica for less and without breaking the bank.
