Crossing the Antarctic Circle plus Helicopter Flights 14 Days
Aboard: Ultramarine
This fantastic expedition not only includes one of the most in-depth explorations of the Antarctic Peninsula available and the thrill of venturing far south to cross the Antarctic Circle, an impressive feat experienced by few, but also includes the added bonus of an unforgettable helicopter flight over the Peninsula.
The breathtakingly scenic wildlife paradise of Antarctica is yours to explore as we spend 7 full days enjoying exciting Zodiac excursions through the crackling sea ice, getting up close to huge colonies of bustling penguins as they go about their daily lives, navigating through mazes of towering icebergs of all shapes and sizes, and of course stepping foot on the magnificent 7th continent. And to make this exceptional voyage even more memorable, your captain will sail your Polar expedition vessel deep into south Antarctica to attempt a crossing of the Antarctic Circle, an experience that will be celebrated in style.
What’s more, you will sail aboard a deluxe, brand-new expedition ship that is equipped with two twin-engine helicopters which will allow you to discover incredibly remote areas that are inaccessible on most other expeditions.
Please note: One helicopter flight is included in your package. Additional helicopter-based activities are available at an additional cost.
Various departures available. Please enquire for full dates and rates.

Now that I am back from my odyssey voyage, I thought I would let you know that after all that planning it really did exceed my expectations – we managed landings everywhere even on Tristan da Cuhna and had great bird sightings. The guides all knew what they were talking about too and made sure I got some great photos – still sorting them all out! Thanks for everything and see you at Birdfair!
Dave MartinI want to thank you for all you did to make my recent Falklands trip run so smoothly and comfortably. Thank you for all your help over the diet too.
Dr Lorna MairsJust a quick note to express my sincere thanks to you and all your staff for making this an epic adventure of immense proportions. Everything went smoothly, pickups, hotels and most of all the expedition itself. Truly a mind blowing experience unlike any I have ever taken.
