>> Welcome to the magnificent Polar regions of Antarctica, The Arctic and the Russian Far East.
We are excited to present our latest program of Polar voyages, offering you a comprehensive range of tantalising options to choose from.
Our voyages are more than just spectator journeys, our aim is to provide fully immersive experiences that will have you stepping off the ship and into some of the world’s most untouched landscapes. You’ll have unparalleled opportunities to observe Polar wildlife in their natural habitats, discover rugged coastlines, towering mountains and otherworldly frozen landscapes by foot and by zodiac.
Join one of our voyages to the Antarctic Peninsula or South Georgia, to explore dramatic scenery and watch in awe as penguins and seals play while enormous icebergs float majestically nearby. You can snowshoe across the ice sheet, explore unclimbed peaks or enjoy a kayak, snorkel or dive experience like no other.
Head north to the Arctic for expansive 'mountainscapes', where polar bears, walrus and puffins abound and pretty alpine flowers swathe the tundra. Visit small isolated where life has changed
little over the decades, and be one of the lucky few to witness the soul-stirring beauty of the northern lights playing across the night sky. Or consider the Russian Far East, one of the wildest Polar regions, for a striking geothermal landscape of volcanoes, geysers and ever-changing scenery.
The coming season sees the introduction of two new custom built expedition ships, MV Hondius and The Greg Mortimer, both making their maiden Polar voyages. These vessels bring a new level of comfort to our program, whilst still remaining true to the small ship style of travel.
Life aboard our vessels is relaxed and comfortable, with safety and sustainability always at the core of our operations. You’ll enjoy world class dining and the expert insights
of our experienced lecturers as you traverse
these truly spectacular wilderness regions.
"WE'LL TAKE YOU ON SMALL VESSELS SO YOU CAN GET CLOSE TO THE ICE AND SNOW THAT BLANKETS THE POLAR REGIONS. WE INVITE YOU TO 'GET ACTIVE' WITH KAYAKING, CAMPING, GLACIER WALKS, ZODIAC EXCURSIONS, DIVING/ SNORKELLING AND, YES, SWIMMING. THE CURIOUS PENGUINS AND THE WILDLIFE GENERALLY WILL DELIGHT"
