Explore the Arctic & Antarctica
I've Made the Crossing Myself
Antarctica is the one trip that leaves even seasoned travelers lost for words. I have made the crossing myself, and nothing quite prepares you for the scale of it: the silence, the ice, the wildlife that has no reason to fear you. It is the reason I now plan these voyages for other people.
The Arctic is the other half of the story, and expedition cruising there has quietly become one of the most sought-after journeys I sell: Svalbard and the polar bears, the fjords of Greenland, the midnight sun. Both poles are specialist, cabin-limited and booked a long way ahead, which is exactly where an advisor earns their place.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Antarctic season runs from roughly November to March, the southern summer. Early season brings pristine snow and courting penguins; midseason has penguin chicks and the best overall conditions; late season is the prime time for whales. Which suits you depends on what you most want to see.
Not necessarily. Many voyages now offer a fly-the-Drake option, flying between Punta Arenas and the Peninsula instead of sailing the two-day crossing each way. It costs more and saves days at sea, and it is a good fit for travelers short on time or wary of the swell.
A year or more for the best ships and cabins, and for the specialist departures. Polar expedition cruising is strictly cabin-limited, and the good voyages sell out well in advance. If you have a season in mind, the earlier we talk, the better the choice.
