Antartica Travels





Jumping over Cape Horn and the mythical waters of the Drake Passage, Antarctica XXI invites you to a unique experience that will take you to the most remote place on earth, the coldest, highest, windiest, driest and most inhospitable continent- Antarctica.

In less than 2 hours of flying from Punta Arenas to King George Island, the largest of the South Shetland Archipelago, you will be at the gates of the white continent.

From King George Island we will navigate for six days and five nights along the Antarctic Peninsula, visiting the most wonderful places and enjoying the best wildlife sites of Antarctica. During the whole journey there will be different lectures to introduce and inform you about this wonderful continent. We are sure this will be the trip of your lifetime!
Day by Day Itinerary
Day 1: Punta Arenas, Chile
Arrive in the city of Punta Arenas where you will be met by Antarctica XXI staff to be transferred to your hotel. During the afternoon you will meet your expedition mates and receive instructions concerning the guidelines that should be followed in Antarctica and the procedures for Zodiac boat embarkation and disembarkation.

Later, enjoy a welcome dinner at the Jose Nogueira Hotel, a French-style mansion that is over one hundred years old.
