15-day last-minute Antarctica cruises

Day 2 :
Day 0 » Arrival to Santiago » Hotel transfert
We suggest that our tourists arrive in Santiago de Chile a day earlier to have a good rest after a long flight before our Subantarctic adventures begin. A pre-cruise night is not included in the price of the itinerary. Still, we highly recommend the Holiday Inn Hotel due to its most favorable location in the airport terminal.
Day 3 :
Day 1 » Flight to Stanley » Falkland Islands, Embarkation
Our expedition will start in the early morning at the airport of Santiago de Chile, where we will take a transfer flight to the Falkland Islands. Minimal days at sea means more days for photography with World Photo Travels Guides Mike Reyfman, Dimitry Arkhipov, Marco Grassi, and Svein Wik. After a short landing in Punta Arenas in Patagonia, we'll arrive at the starting point of our cruise. Welcome to Stanley, the capital of the Falkland Islands! Take your time to explore this fantastic city. Visit the Falkland Islands Museum, the Governor’s house, a cathedral with an impressive whalebone arch outside, a war memorial, quality gift shops, pubs, and views of shipwrecks in the harbor. In the afternoon, you will be transferred to the pier, where we will warmly welcome you aboard the deluxe expedition ship M/V Sea Spirit. Get comfortable in your home away from home for an extraordinary adventure.
Day 4 :
Day 2-3 » Aboard M/V Sea Spirit
As we sail east towards South Georgia, we can witness incredible wildlife. We will also cross the Antarctic Convergence, the biological boundary of the Southern Ocean. Don’t lose your time aboard! Attend the most interesting briefings and lectures from our expert staff and prepare for your arrival in South Georgia. This cruise was designed for amateur photographers of all skill levels, so use this chance to make new friends, exchange your photo experience and attend our photography master classes. Discussing ISO and exposure is always better in our cozy bar, restaurant, or lounge.
Day 5 :
Day 4-12 » Exploring South Georgia
South Georgia is the best place on Earth for wildlife and landscape photographers. We will take you to great locations for the best light. The archipelago is home to hundreds of thousands of king penguins, which makes South Georgia the best spot to photograph these beautiful creatures. We plan to visit the most picturesque sights, such as Gold Harbour, Cooper Bay, Drygalski Fjord, and other great places. For example, the beaches such as those at Salisbury Plain and St. Andrews Bay, where over 100,000 elephant seals and three million fur seals jostle for space among innumerable penguins. The bountiful waters surrounding South Georgia are also inhabited by an increasing number of whales. The historical whaling station of Grytviken is now home to the excellent South Georgia Museum, managed by the South Georgia Heritage Trust. This is also the final resting place of Ernest Shackleton, the legendary polar explorer. However, our route and exploration opportunities in South Georgia heavily depend on the weather conditions we encounter. Our experienced captain and expedition leader decide the itinerary and continually adjust plans as conditions and opportunities warrant. You can be sure that the best possible advantage will be taken of the circumstances presented to us by Nature in this wild and remote corner of the world. We take every safe opportunity to visit this amazing place and take the best wildlife photos.
Day 6 :
Day 13-14 » Back to the Falkland Islands
It is time to head back toward the Falkland Islands. However, our adventures are not over yet. We will pass the remote, seabird-covered pinnacles known as Shag Rocks on the way (get your cameras ready!) There is also time for festivities such as the Captain’s Farewell Cocktail and the end-of-voyage slide show. We will share our impressions, review all the great photos we’ve taken and enjoy a friendly atmosphere of like-minded fellow travelers.
Day 7 :
Day 15 » Disembarkation in Stanley » Flight to Santiago
Our adventure finishes in Port Stanley. We disembark after breakfast and provide a transfer to the airport. Have a safe flight to Santiago. We recommend you explore the wonderful capital of Chile and spend more time here. Now when the first emotions have subsided you will have time to look back to your unforgettable Subantarctic experience and maybe to make plans for your next polar adventure.
