As you explore, you'll come across one of the largest penguin colonies in the world, with over 60,000 king penguins! Your exploration continues with possible stops at other major islands in the Antarctic , like the Falkland Islands, and ultimately the impressive white expanse that is Antarctica, including the legendary Antarctic Sound and the Antarctic Peninsula. Hiking, wildlife viewing, and zodiac excursions are just a few of the exciting activities that will make up your trip to Antarctica. Let us know when you're ready to start planning!
