Whatever your choice, we guarantee you super service, expert advice and not just the holiday, but the Antarctic adventure of a lifetime.
Please note that every season the number of expeditions are strictly limited by The Antarctic Treaty Agreement. Space, therefore is very limited. We understand an Antarctica holiday for a majority of travellers can be a "once in a lifetime" experience so to avoid disappointment enquiries should be made as early as possible. We will be delighted to advise you of the latest availability for advance or for late bookings!

Akademik Sergey Vavilov - Antarctica, Falklands & South Georgia
19 Nights From only £6560 per person
The 104 passenger Akademik Sergey Vavilov is large enough to provide stability, speed, spacious cabins and ample public space, yet she is small enough to manoeuvre in remote areas and get you close to the action. Ship stabilizers ensure a smooth ride in rough waters allowing you to enjoy more of your time at sea. The expedition team includes experts in marine and avian biology, history and geology. Together they represent a vast depth in knowledge and experience that will enrich your travels in unforgettable ways. Through a lecture programme and shore expeditions, they will share their knowledge and passion with you, to enhance your experience. A fleet of Zodiacs are used for landings and nature cruises, and an open bridge policy onboard allows interaction with the captain and navigation crew, further fostering the expeditionary nature of every voyage.
