Antarctic Express: Crossing the Antarctic Circle from Punta Arenas

Main destination Antarctica, · About Escorted or Guided Tour
Enjoy Antarctica in style – by flying and then cruising south of the Antarctic Circle! A short three-hour flight is all it takes to travel between Punta Arenas, Chile and King George Island in Antarctica. Skipping all the extra days at sea, you’ll enjoy only the best scenery and wildlife experiences of the Antarctic. Prepare yourself for a sensory overload, as you’ll be inundated by the sheer beauty and dramatic landscapes of the white continent. Soon after, our team of polar experts on the ship will have you searching for penguins and whales in Antarctica.

Highlights

Flying over the famous Drake Passage to King George Island is the fastest, most direct way to travel to Antarctica

Get up close to an incredible range of wildlife, such as minke, humpback and orca whales or gentoo, Adelie and chinstrap penguins

Few people ever get the opportunity to set foot on the Great White Continent, but you'll be one of them

A diversity of possible landing sites and activities allows you to see the spectacular Antarctic Peninsula from multiple perspectives

Optional activities such as sea kayaking or polar ice camping can take your adventure to the next level. Book early, as these sell out fast
