Explorador Antártico

Los primeros exploradores antárticos regresaron de sus viajes al extremo sur con relatos de una tierra magnífica y cubierta de hielo repleta de vida. Experimente la inmensidad sobrecogedora de la Antártida, reduciendo su tiempo en alta mar al volar a través del Pasaje de Drake en una dirección. Sumérjase en la belleza inimaginable de la Península Antártica, donde vastos glaciares caen al mar, los pingüinos son empequeñecidos por picos imponentes y las ballenas jorobadas y minke se dan un festín con el abundante krill.

Early Antarctic explorers returned from their voyages to the deep south with tales of a magnificent, ice-covered land teeming with life. Experience the awe-inspiring immensity of Antarctica, reducing your time on the high seas by flying across the Drake Passage in one direction. Immerse yourself in the unimaginable beauty of the Antarctic Peninsula, where vast glaciers tumble into the sea, penguins are dwarfed by soaring peaks and humpback and minke whales feast on abundant krill.

Day-by-day itinerary

  1. Day 1: Arrive Punta Arenas

    Arrive in Punta Arenas, where you will be met by a representative of Aurora Expeditions and transferred to our hotel. We ask that you arrive no later than 2:00pm on this day. Overlooking the Straits of Magellan, the city sits astride one of the world's most historic trade routes. At 7.00 pm this evening, meet your fellow expeditioners at a voyage briefing.

  2. Day 2: Fly to King George Island, Embarkation

    This morning we will be transferred to Punta Arenas airport for our charter flight to King George Island, Antarctica (weather permitting). The flight will take approximately one hour and forty-five minutes. On arrival into King George Island our expedition team is on hand to greet you and to prepare you for your Zodiac transfer to the vessel.

  3. Day 3: Antarctic Peninsula

    It's almost impossible to describe the feeling of arriving in Antarctica. Spotting your first iceberg and taking a deep breath of some of the most fresh, crisp air on earth is an experience that will stay with you forever. Once we arrive, the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula and the South Shetland Islands are ours to explore.

  4. Day 4: Antarctic Peninsula

    We generally make landings or Zodiac excursions twice a day. You will want to rug up before joining Zodiac cruises along spectacular ice cliffs or among grounded icebergs, keeping watch for whales, seals and porpoising penguins.

  5. Day 5: Antarctic Peninsula

    While ashore we aim to stretch our legs, wandering along pebbly beaches or perhaps up snow-covered ridgelines to vantage points with mountains towering overhead and ice-speckled oceans below.

  6. Day 6: Antarctic Peninsula

    In addition to Zodiac cruises and shore excursions, we may ship cruise some of the narrow, dramatic straits separating offshore islands from the mainland, or linger in scenic bays to watch whales travelling or feeding.

  7. Day 7: Drake Passage Crossing

    Enjoy a final morning landing in the South Shetland Islands before we re-enter the Drake Passage for our return journey to South America. With lectures and film presentations to complete our Antarctic experience, there is still plenty of time to enjoy the magic of the Southern Ocean.

  8. Day 8: Drake Passage Crossing

    As we approach the tip of South America, our Captain may sail close to legendary Cape Horn, weather and time permitting.

  9. Day 9: Disembark in Ushuaia

    During the early morning, we cruise up the Beagle Channel, before quietly slipping into dock in Ushuaia, where we will be free to disembark around 8.00 am. Farewell your expedition team and fellow passengers as we all continue our onward journeys.
