On this voyage, not only will you explore the famed white continent and far-flung South Georgia, you will also sail to the South Sandwich Islands, a chain of seldom-visited volcanic islands located 740 kilometres south-east of the main island before heading to the Antarctic Peninsula.
This voyage was designed in conjunction with Aurora Expeditions’ co-founder, Greg Mortimer. True to the spirit of adventure, spend time exploring these remote and wild islands on thrilling Zodiac cruises, conditions permitting. This is a Christmas and New Year adventure that you’re likely to remember and talk about for many years to come.
