Antarctica: Authentic, Enriching, Seamless
Explore Another World
Once you’ve reached The White Continent, spend your days traveling by Zodiac, listening to the crash of ice as it breaks off millennial glaciers or watching as humpback whales spy hop from the frosty waters to introduce themselves. Or, under the guidance of certified kayak instructors, perhaps you’ll choose to slip into a kayak and float alongside a glacier in total silence, kept company by always-curious leopard seals gliding alongside.
Join an expert naturalist as you get up close and personal with the stunning landscapes and teeming wildlife of Antarctica. Perhaps you’ll even make a new feathered friend as Silversea’s experts introduce you to colonies of Adèlie penguins, chinstrap penguins and gentoo penguins.
With Silversea, experience an adventure so far off the beaten track, there is no track. Their fleet of intimate and luxuriously appointed expedition ships mean you can travel into unforgiving landscapes without sacrificing comfort; in fact, they’ve turned luxury all-inclusive cruising to Antarctica into an art form.
With two options for travel at the beginning of your trip, Silversea has also made it easy: Sail the iconic Drake Passage to King George Island, or fly in style directly from Punta Arenas, Chile. From there, you’ll board Silversea’s newest luxury expedition ship, Silver Endeavor, which boasts a plethora of industry-leading exploration amenities.
The best way to prepare for your onshore excursions? With one of Silversea’s onboard lectures provided in advance. Listen as expert naturalists, biologists, historians and geologists share their impressive knowledge of the surrounding environment, and provide detailed accounts of what you can expect during your adventures on land and on water.
INSIDER TIP
Silversea takes the utmost care when traveling to the Antarctic region, with equipment, procedures and gear for guests that ensure their impact on Antarctica’s delicate ecosystem is minimal to none.
