Explore both the Falkland Islands and South Georgia, a trip sure to appeal to intrepid explorers and nature lovers alike.

We'll see the breeding beaches of elephant seals and King penguin colonies at Salisbury Plain, St. Andrews Bay and Gold Harbour, visit the whaling stations at Stromness and Grytviken, observe macaroni and gentoo penguins, admire the stunning landscapes and delight in the many species of birds, including Antarctic terns, white-chinned petrels, blue-eyed shags and light-mantled sooty albatrosses. This is a journey for travellers with a love of exploring the unknown - come and join us on this expedition cruise to the South Atlantic.

Adventure Coordinators Insider Tip:

If the weather is good and the Shackleton Crossing is offered, be sure to do it.  Walking in the footsteps of the great explorer is like nothing else.  Afterwards, pay homage at his gravesite in Grytviken, perhaps with a dram of Shackleton Scotch!
