Max Passengers: 73
Ship Type: Expedition Cruise Ship
Operated by: Antarctica21

Magellan Explorer is a new and modern expedition vessel, custom built for our Antarctic air-cruises to the latest Polar Code specifications.

For our air-cruises, Magellan Explorer has a capacity of 73 guests in seven categories of accommodation, including dedicated single cabins. All cabins except the porthole cabins feature private balconies. All but two of the double cabins have two twin beds that can be configured into one king-size bed. Most cabins have two twin beds that can be configured as one queen-size bed. All cabins have wardrobes, individually controlled heating systems, sitting areas, and private bathrooms with showers and heated floors.

The ship features a glass-enclosed observation lounge and presentation room with state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment, a spacious and stylish dining room, a well-stocked bar, a library, a meeting room, a gym, a sauna, and a medical clinic. The forward-facing observation deck leads to the ship’s bow, which is accessible to guests to offer proximity to marine wildlife. The ship has a fleet of 10 Zodiac boats that are well suited for shore excursions and wildlife viewing.

The fitness center aboard Magellan Explorer was designed and built by the professionals at Anytime Fitness, the world’s only fitness company with boutique gyms on all seven continents. 

The Antarctic Treaty restricts the number of visitors to a maximum of 100 at a time to minimize environmental impact. Everyone on a Magellan Explorer air-cruise can disembark at the same time because there are only 73 passengers on board. This means you can spend more time ashore instead of waiting in line to get off the ship.

Plug/ Voltage type Onboard: European or Type F

Kate was great to work with in the planning stage. She was prompt, helpful, and efficient. Our tour guide, Edwin, was knowledgeable and passionate. We were very happy to have traveled with Adventure Life, it made the trip easy and a true pleasure. We could concentrate on enjoying the experience rather than the details of travel.
