Antarctica21
Redefining Antarctic exploration with its boutique air-cruise model, flying you over the challenging Drake Passage directly to King George Island, saving days at sea before embarking on a small ship polar voyage.
With a maximum of 71 guests, Antarctica21’s small-ship expeditions allow for more time ashore for intimate, flexible landings and wildlife encounters, allowing closer contact with penguin colonies, glaciers, seals, and the dramatic landscapes. Each expedition is guided by experienced polar experts, each day offering Zodiac cruises, kayaking, hiking, and photography so you can capture this unique and remote content in its entirety.
Why we love it:
- Ideal for guests with a shorter travel window by flying over the Drake Passage, avoiding the 2-day sea crossing while maximising your time in Antarctica
- Antarctica21 has a deep respect for the fragile environment using the expertise of specialist polar guides, environmentally conscious practices, and high safety standards
- Offering a comfortable uncrowded experience with a maximum of just 76 guests per voyage
- They have created a warm, welcoming space with spacious accommodation and observation lounges, chef-prepared meals and a wide variety of active explorations
