The Arctic and Antarctica are among the last untouched natural paradises on earth. Very few people have the opportunity to visit these unique regions.
Who has not dreamed of cruising through icebergs and watching whales, penguins, walruses, sea lions and polar bears in their natural habitat?
Antarctica
The Antarctic excursions depart from Ushuaia in Tierra del Fuego, to the south of Argentina. The sometimes very rough crossing will be rewarded in the Antarctic with fantastic scenery and amazing wildlife.
Various species of penguins, sea elephants, sea lions, minke and humpback whales and orcas can be seen regularly. The cruises offer daily excursions.
The Arctic
The Arctic voyages visit the region of Spitsbergen, an island group between Norway, the North Pole and Greenland. Almost all the islands are uninhabited. Encounters with polar bears, walruses, various species of seal, beluga and minke whales are most likely. Daily land excursions which take a few hours are offered.
In the Arctic, encounters with polar bears will be fascinating, but the danger of the animals should not be underestimated. As safety precaution the guides are carrying guns.
