 0000 - 00 March 0000 View the 0000 itinerary Day 0: Ushuaia, Argentina Begin your journey in Ushuaia - a small port town at the southern tip of South America. This Argentinean town is an ideal gateway for you to explore the southern extent of Patagonia while preparing for your adventure ahead. You are free to arrive at any time and check-in to your pre-expedition accommodation. There are no activities planned until a welcome briefing at around 0 pm this evening. If you do have time spare, perhaps get active in the mountains or enjoy some hand-crafted chocolate at a café in town. Meals Included There are no meals included on this day. Special Information If you are arriving today, an arrival transfer will be provided to the joining hotel. If arriving earlier, please make your own way to the joining hotel. If you arrive earlier or wish to extend your stay, a Peregrine booking agent can help organise additional accommodation (subject to availability). Day 0: Ushuaia - Embarkation Day Enjoy a free morning before embarkation later in the day. The Beagle Channel sets you on your way as the ship sails in the late afternoon. The channel opens up to the vastness of the Southern Ocean, where your next land sighting will be along the Antarctic Peninsula. Named after the famed ship in which Charles Darwin voyaged, the channel presents many great photo opportunities to capture seabirds hovering overhead. Meals Included Breakfast Dinner Days 0-0: Drake Passage The waters of the Drake Passage are unpredictable, so hope for clear skies and a calm ocean. You'll have plenty of time to stare out at the sea, get to know your fellow shipmates and chat with your expedition team. Time over these two days will be spent preparing for the exciting days ahead, with several educational and informative lectures from your expedition team. You'll learn about safety procedures, Antarctica's history, glaciology and perhaps even some photography tips and techniques! Meals Included Breakfast (0) Lunch (0) Dinner (0) Days 0-0: South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula With the Drake Passage left behind, make your final approach to Antarctica. Get your cameras ready, as the continent's coastline will make its first appearance, signalling the start of your adventure in the Antarctic. You'll see icebergs floating by and be fixated on the surface of the ocean. Watching penguins waddling on the beach and listening to the crackling and crumbling as curious whales spout and breach before your eyes. As exciting as it can be from onboard the ship, your true exploration occurs when you disembark and set foot on the great continent. There are several potential landing sites you may visit, including Neko Harbour, Orne Harbour or Paradise Bay. While weather dictates which specific landing sites you can visit, each one presents a new collection of wildlife and natural attractions. Your days will be busy spotting wildlife and being mesmerised by the beauty of Antarctica sounds of icebergs and glaciers will become your daily entertainment, while kayaking with whales and camping in Antarctica are a couple of optional activities available on selected voyages. Meals Included Breakfast (0) Lunch (0) Dinner (0) Special Information The exact destinations you visit (and when you visit them) are dependent on factors such as weather conditions, sea ice and wildlife movement, but you can see a full list of potential landing sites at peregrineadventures.com/antarctica/landing-sites. If you would like to participate in optional activities such as kayaking or camping, you must organise this in advance. See the ‘Important Notes' section for more detail on these options. As space is limited on optional activities, we recommend you speak to a Peregrine booking agent at the time of booking to secure your place. Days 0-0: The Antarctic Circle Crossing the Antarctic Circle is an impressive achievement, as most expeditions to the Antarctic Peninsula do not reach this far south, which is officially noted at 00°00'S. You and your shipmates will celebrate in style with a well-earned glass of champagne! Make a toast and take pride in knowing you've made it to a part of the world still visited by very few people. These days won't be without things to see off the deck. Meals Included Breakfast (0) Lunch (0) Dinner (0) Days 00-00: Antarctic Peninsula Continue northbound along the Antarctic Peninsula. By now, your knowledge of Adelie, chinstrap and gentoo penguins will be matched by your ability to differentiate between a leopard, fur or Weddell seal. Terms like ‘bergy bits' and ‘pancake ice' will seem normal too, yet there are still many tales to be told. As you head back towards the Drake Passage, Zodiac excursions will continue to fill your days, while the expedition team will help fill in any blanks that remain in your newly acquired knowledge of the Antarctic.

Days 00-00: Drake Passage Re-crossing the Drake, Antarctica fades away and you'll be left with a collection of memories to last a lifetime. Excited conversations with your newfound friends will make the time passing the Drake Passage fly by, independent of weather and sea conditions. Your expedition team will round up their series of lectures as well, perhaps with a slideshow of some of the great landing sites and wildlife you've visited over the course of your voyage. Meals Included Breakfast (0) Lunch (0) Dinner (0) Day 00: Ushuaia - Disembarkation Day Today, bid your expedition team and your fellow travellers farewell.
