FAST PASS TO ANTARCTICA
Be amongst the first to experience a fly/cruise Antarctic expedition in 2017
Carving time out of your life and routine for an Antarctic cruise can be an undertaking. It can take weeks – even a month or more – to reach the 7th continent. Even then, you’ll have quite the trip in store – sailing the legendary Drake Passage.
While crossing the Drake Passage by sea is a rite of passage for many visiting Antarctica, the time savings that a Fly/Cruise experience affords versus a traditional polar cruise, is critically important to others. In addition to shaving four days off your trip, it is a civilized way to travel to this wild, untamed place, without compromising any of the adventure.
Starting your day in a beautiful hotel in a modern city, with all of the conveniences that entails, and cruising across the surface of an icy bay, saltwater misting and splashing your face by day’s end, is an adventure in itself – and one not too many can claim to have had.
These seven and eight day Fly/Cruise expeditions offer the same iconic Antarctic moments – penguin-lined beaches, adventurous Zodiac cruises and immersive education – as traditional longer trips, but they’re optimized for time-constrained travelers.
