Testimonial - Ms SJ, Wicklow:

"I had the most wonderful time on the Hurtigruten cruise which you organised for me. From start to finish
everything was handled very professionally and the crew and staff on the ship were extremely helpful
and well informed. A dream of a lifetime to have seen such unspoilt beauty."

Antarctica

Everything about Antarctica is superlative. The world's highest, driest, coldest, cleanest continent, it leaves an indelible impression on the minds of all visitors. To take a voyage past Cape Horn, across the Drake Passage to the peninsula is to join what is still an exclusive group of intrepid travellers inspired by the legacy of Antarctic exploration.

Unimaginably rich in fauna, the Southern Ocean is a constant drama of survival and stealth. Leopard and fur seals, minke whales, several species of penguin and great flocks of seabirds – including the wandering albatross – give life to this surreally beautiful landscape.

When you manage to tear your eyes away from the wildlife, the icebergs and glaciers present an equally enthralling sight. From the bow, every view is a photographer's dream and the long austral summer day means there is plenty of opportunity to take it all in. Frequent excursions by Polar Cirkel boats allow you to get close to the vast communities of king, adélie, gentoo and chinstrap penguins. There are even hot springs here if you want a dip!

On board the Hurtigruten ship, MS Fram, you enjoy all the comforts of a modern vessel as you follow in the wake of Antarctic explorers. The ghosts of Scott and Amundsen remain and you will see historic sights including polar cabins, bases and maybe even visit Elephant islands, where Ernest Shackleton's crew wintered while awaiting rescue. Visiting the white continent, even in the relative luxury of a modern ship, still feels like an expedition - and a rare privilege.

Arranging travel to Antarctica from Ireland couldn't be easier. Project Travel offers a selection of Antarctic voyage packages between November and February each year lasting between 12 and 20 days. All may be adapted to include extra days in South America before or after the voyage.
