Spirit of Adventure

The Antarctic 2009-2010 season is here with the first voyage, 6 November, departing tomorrow. Most of the voyages are now full – but the good news is that there are two exceptions – our 20 night Antarctica, the Falkland Islands & South Georgia voyage departing 20 January 2010 and our 18 night Antarctica, the Falkland Islands & South Georgia voyage departing 22 February 2010. Even on these voyages there are only a handful of cabins left, so if you were looking to join us in Antarctica next year, contact us soon not to miss the boat!

These two voyages offer the ‘ultimate’ wildlife experiences, contrasting the fascinating history and overwhelming wildlife populations of the sub-Antarctic, with the awesome beauty of Antarctica. The 20 January voyage also has particular focus on the needs of the artist and photographer, with photographer Nick Garbutt and artist and conservationist Mandy Shepherd joining us onboard.

Our expedition ship the Akademik Sergey Vavilov will operate for the Antarctic 2009-2010 season. The Akademik Sergey Vavilov has a solid reputation for being the ideal ship in terms of size, speed, safety and stability. She is the perfect ‘home base’ for exploring the wilderness areas of Antarctica, moving quickly and providing a warm and comfortable homecoming at the end of the day’s exploration, to allow you to rest-up and get the most out of each day.
