Embark on an extraordinary adventure with us as we set sail on a luxury expedition ship to the mesmerizing landscapes of Antarctica. Joining this 11-night voyage will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience as we cross the elusive Antarctic Circle, witnessing untouched beauty and awe-inspiring scenery.
Optional pre-cruise stay in Buenos Aires!
We take a charter flight to Ushuaia and then board the new World Traveler luxury expedition ship!
The Drake Passage leads you from the southernmost region of the Americas to the Antarctic Peninsula, the northern point of The White Continent. This waterway where cold southern ocean meets warm northern sea water creates powerful currents that test your mettle.
As we make the voyage across the Antarctic Circle at the 66th parallel, you become a “Red Nose,” one of the select few who navigate deep into the frontier of The White Continent to make the crossing. It is a feeling of triumph that cannot be beat.
Nicknamed The White Continent for its vast expanse of icebergs, snow and glaciers, Antarctica is often the final frontier for experienced explorers to conquer.
As we navigate Antarctic waters, we may set foot on sites like Beak Island, Brown Bluff, Cierva Cove, Hidden Bay and many more.
We expect 1-2 landings each day, each offers its own unique landscape, from expansive tundra to rugged mountain peaks!
Part of the greater Antarctica region, the South Shetland Islands contain plenty of wildlife, scenic landscapes, hiking opportunities and magnificent viewpoints that inspire a sense of discovering another world.
A possible landing on Elephant Island, named for the shape of its cliffside and the elephant seals that call it home, puts you on the same path as the famous Shackleton Expedition.
Deception Island, another possible landing and named for its very nature, is in fact a volcanic caldera where you can find heated springs amid the striking black sands.
Other stops could include Half Moon Island, Yankee Harbor, Point Wild and Barrientos Island, where you can find plenty of Gentoo penguin rookeries.
We disembark in Ushuaia and take our charter flight to Buenos Aires and then continue our flights back home.
Aboard our intimate yacht World Traveller you will find everything you want and need. Including three decks of spacious and elevated accommodations, various onboard dining options, spa and sauna amenities, social spaces for gathering with your fellow travelers and more, World Traveller has been designed to always deliver relaxed luxury and highly personalized service.

From appreciating the dining experience to keeping up an exercise routine while on holiday to taking time for self-care, we cultivate an atmosphere of overall well-being in every space on board World Traveller.
Your culinary adventures on board rival your discoveries ashore, as our well-traveled chefs take inspiration from a wide array of global cuisines when creating their ever-changing menus. And like your shoreside travels, your culinary exploration on board is designed to engage all of the senses. Relaxed and unhurried, each meal on board becomes another memorable experience to savor with friends.
An innovative hydro-jet propulsion system allows the purpose-built World Traveller to bring you closer to the environment and wildlife. The system keeps our yachts quieter and lets us get closer to the environment and wildlife without disturbing their habitat, making for up-close and personal encounters that leave you in awe.
After an inspiring day of exploring, the luxurious comfort of your suite or stateroom offers the perfect place to relax. All accommodations include plush bedding, a marble spa bath and lavish L’OCCITANE amenities. Take in a final view of the seascape from the comfort of your balcony or from your panoramic window before retiring for the evening. Awaken fully refreshed and begin your day by pouring yourself a cup of Nespresso Coffee or Kusmi Tea.
A panoramic picture window offers endless views of the horizon as you enjoy the many amenities of the Adventure Oceanview Stateroom, including a sitting area, spa bath and more.
A sitting area with chairs and a vanity opens onto a private walk-out balcony with comfortable teak furnishings in the Veranda Stateroom. Take in the captivating views as you relax indoors or outside.
From your spacious sitting area with a sofa, chairs and a vanity, look out over the ocean vistas through the floor-to-ceiling windows of your Juliette balcony with top-drop electric window. Relax and recharge in lavish comfort in your Horizon Stateroom.
