Mawson's Antarctica
About This Itinerary
Embark on an odyssey that follows in the footsteps of legends like Scott, Shackleton, and Mawson. In this remote and seldom-travelled region, prepare to uncover the secrets of history hidden within the iconic huts of explorers past. Brace yourself for tales of extraordinary endurance against the harshest elements, and bear witness to the breathtaking majesty of Antarctic ice shelves that seem to defy belief.
But that’s just the beginning. Be entranced by the graceful flight of wandering albatross, revel in the playful antics of sea lion harems and yellow-eyed penguins, and if you’re lucky, spot orcas and emperor penguins amidst the vast expanse of pack ice. Your adventure of a lifetime awaits!
