Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been traveling to the Antarctic for the last almost 25 years with many more than 100 voyages to the Frozen continent under my belt

The Antarctic Explorer itinerary is available in it beginning in Buenos Aires Argentina and taking you South to Antarctica before disembarking a new schwaia Argentina over 13 days

We recommend that you dress in layers and given the nature of our Expedition voyages you will want to pack quick drying or waterproof clothing and accessories

The ships of Vikings sail with a range of vessels designed to explore from the sea making it easy to investigate these stunning Landscapes
