Plan your Antarctica Cruise Packages getaway with a real travel expert

An Antarctica cruise takes you to the one place that still feels undiscovered: after a flight to Buenos Aires and Ushuaia, an expedition ship crosses the Drake Passage and spends four to six days landing by Zodiac among penguin rookeries, whale-filled bays, and city-block icebergs along the Peninsula. Fly-cruise options skip the Drake by flying from Punta Arenas to King George Island. Fond Travels packages the voyage with flights from the US to South America, the Ushuaia connection, and pre-cruise hotel nights, booked by phone.

What an Antarctica cruise package can include

• 10–12 night Peninsula expedition cruise fare, or 18–22 nights adding the Falklands and South Georgia
• Flights from the US to Buenos Aires or Santiago and the charter to Ushuaia or Punta Arenas
• Pre-cruise hotel nights in Buenos Aires and Ushuaia, transfers
• Zodiac landings, expedition parka, kayaking or camping add-ons, travel protection

Best time to go

The season runs November through March. November has pristine snow and courting penguins; December–January brings the longest days and hatching chicks; February–March is prime for humpback and orca sightings.

Route options

• Classic Peninsula: the Drake crossing both ways, 10–12 nights from Ushuaia
• Fly-cruise: two-hour flight over the Drake, more time on the ice
• Falklands and South Georgia: king penguin colonies by the hundred thousand
