Day by day

Day 1: Ushuaia

Ushuaia, also known as the End of the World because of its position at the very southernmost point of South America in the Tierra del Fuego Archipelago, is not the end of adventure. The vibrant town of Ushuaia is located where the Andes Mountains meet the Beagle Channel, and behind the colorful city lies the Martial Mountains. Parque Yatana is a great place to experience the indigenous culture.

Day 2 & 3 : Drake Passage

The most adventurous explorers will be able to navigate the Drake Passage. The way is guided by the albatrosses and petrels that flit across the sky. Antarctica is a triumph to visit because of its power.

The Drake Passage takes you to The White Continent, from the Southernmost Region of Americas. The Drake Passage is a waterway that connects the cold waters of southern seas with warm water from northern seas. This creates strong currents and will test you.

The rewards of a journey that takes on these cold waters are not comparable. It is the combination of cold and warm waters that creates an ecosystem where extraordinary wildlife can be found. Drake Passage is a great opportunity to see humpbacks whales, hourglass dolphins and other wildlife. The 48-hour Drake Passage journey includes the crashing of ocean waves against the ship, as well as the cries of petrels and skuas.

You can still see the other side of Drake Passage, even though it is known for being a challenging waterway. Sometimes, it is tranquil and calm, making the journey into Antarctica a relaxing experience. Drake Passage is a wonderful experience because you can never be sure what to expect.

The South Shetland Islands greet you as you land on the South Shetland Islands after you have successfully crossed the Drake Passage. The rite of entry to the seventh continent is complete.
