All you need to know to plan your bucket list trip to Antarctica!
|
 |
Antarctica is a once-in-a-life-time experience for many travellers - but where to start can often be overwhelming. Antarctica has a short window of opportunity before winter sets in where visitors can maximise their travel to this stunning wilderness region and experience the unique wildlife that populates the picturesque landscape of snow capped mountains and enormous glaciers in the most remote continent on earth.
|
| There are three distinct seasons where the wildlife and fauna are showcasing their magic, this is one of the things you need to consider when planning your trip. We have also put together a guide on the seasons in Antarctica and what you can expect to see, including comparing some of our favourite luxury cruises to the area to help you find the right cruise line to suit your individual needs. |
