Antarctica Off The Beaten Track: Nov 16-28, 2018

Trace the routes of intrepid explorers and naturalists as you head into the remote vastness of Antarctica. Early in the season, the sea ice is beginning to retreat, allowing you to reach key locations that are inaccessible in winter.

As one of the first ships to visit Antarctica each year, the purpose-built RCGS Resolute will take you to places that few other travellers have ever seen, for exciting wildlife encounters in pristine habitats.

With evocative place names like Deception Island and the Beagle Channel (named for Darwinโ€™s ship) your voyage of discovery will be enhanced by onboard presentations from experts in marine biology and glaciology, among others. With more off-ship options than ever before (including sea kayaking, camping and back-country skiing), your body will get just as much of a workout as your brain. More than anything else, however, youโ€™ll find that youโ€™ll be using your sense of wonder.
