Day 1
Arrive in Buenos Aires
Before you escape to the rugged, raw beauty of the Antarctic, enjoy the sin of gluttony and mirth in one of Argentina’s finest cities- Buenos Aires.Transfer from the international airport to the hotel .
-
Day 2
In and Around Buenos Aires
The day is dedicated to Buenos Aires City Tour- visit La Recoleta Cemetery, Palermo, Teatro Colon, Plaza de Mayo, Puerto Madero, San Telmo and La Boca. Get a feel of South America unplugged as you walk through La Boca, with its bright-as-bulbs colored homes, and gorgeous open bars. Enjoy the Tango show followed by dinner. Overnight stay in Buenos Aires
-
Day 3
Antarctica- Here We Come!
Early morning travel from the hotel in Buenos Aires to the domestic airport from where you fly to Ushuaia to begin the expedition (Flight Not Included). Later the same day, get ready to board your Expedition. Your voyage begins where the world drops off: Ushuaia, Argentina, reputed to be the southernmost city on the planet. Starting in the afternoon with immense excitement, you embark from this small resort town on Tierra del Fuego – nicknamed “The End of the World”– and sail the scenic, mountain-fringed Beagle Channel for the rest of the evening.
-
Day 4
Path of the Polar Explorers
Over the next two days on the Drake Passage, you enjoy some of the same experiences encountered by the great polar explorers who first charted these regions: cool salt breezes, rolling seas, maybe even a fin whale spouting up sea spray. After passing the Antarctic Convergence – Antarctica’s natural boundary, formed when north-flowing cold waters collide with warmer sub-Antarctic seas – you are in the circum-Antarctic upwelling zone. Not only does the marine life change, the avian life changes too. Wandering albatrosses, grey-headed albatrosses, black-browed albatrosses, light-mantled sooty albatrosses, cape pigeons, southern fulmars, Wilson’s storm petrels, blue petrels, and Antarctic petrels are a few of the birds you might see.
-
Day 5
Path of the Polar Explorers
The first sightings of icebergs and snow-capped mountains indicate that we have reached the South Shetland Islands, a group of twenty islands and islets. With favorable conditions in the Drake Passage our lecturers and naturalists will accompany you ashore as you experience your first encounter with the penguins and seals.
-
Day 6
Enter the Antarctic
The South Shetland Islands are a haven for wildlife. Vast penguin rookeries, beaches ruled by Antarctic fur seals and Southern elephant seals make every day spent in this amazing island group unforgettable. Sailing through the narrow passage into the flooded caldera of Deception Island is breathtaking.
-
Day 7
About The Ship- M/V HONDIUS
Plancius was built in 1976 as an oceanographic research vessel for the Royal Dutch Navy and was named “Hr. Ms. Tydeman”. The ship sailed for the Dutch Navy until June 2004 and was eventually purchased by Oceanwide Expeditions. The vessel was completely rebuilt as a passenger vessel in 2009 and complies with the latest SOLAS-regulations (Safety Of Life At Sea). M/v “Plancius” is classed by Lloyd’s Register and flies the Dutch flag.
-
Day 8
At the White Continent
King George Island, the largest of the South Shetland Islands, features colonies of nesting Adélie and Chinstrap Penguins, Kelp Gulls, Blue-eyed Cormorants, Antarctic Terns and Southern Giant Petrels and is home to scientific bases of many different countries.
-
Day 9
At the White Continent
The Antarctic Peninsula’s remarkable history will provide you with a type of excitement often only associated with the early explorers. You will be experiencing a sight which is even difficult to imagine. Apart from penguins and seabirds you are very likely to see Weddell, crabeater and leopard seals as well as Minke, killer (orca) and humpback whales at close range.
-
Day 10
At the White Continent
Further exploration may take you to the Melchior Island group, Cuverville Island, Portal Point, Neko Harbour, Pléneau Island and if ice conditions permit, to Petermann Island for a visit to the southernmost colony of Gentoo Penguins.
-
Day 11
Familiar Seas, Familiar Friend
The volcanic islands of the South Shetlands are windswept and often cloaked in mist, but they do offer subtle pleasures: There’s a wide variety of flora & fauna (gentoo penguins, chinstrap penguins, southern giant petrels). In Deception Island, the ship plunges through Neptune’s Bellows and into the flooded caldera. Here you find hot springs, an abandoned whaling station, and thousands of cape petrels – along with kelp gulls, brown and south polar skuas, and Antarctic terns. A good hike is a possibility in this fascinating and desolate volcanic landscape.
-
Day 12
Familiar Seas, Familiar Friend
Your return voyage is far from lonely. While crossing the Drake, you’re again greeted by the vast array of seabirds remembered from the passage south. But they seem a little more familiar to you now, and you to them. You must have by now earned some sights to behold forever!
-

Day 14
There and Back Again
Every adventure eventually comes to an end. We arrive at the port of Ushuaia early in the morning and disembark the USHUAIA after breakfast. Transfer to the Ushuaia Airport to board the flight back home.

Get in touch-
What does twin share price mean?
Twin share price is the price mentioned against a package and it refers to the cost per head for a double sharing accommodation. If you'd like to upgrade to Single Occupancy, please select this at the time of checkout -
Regarding the hotels, what does OR SIMILAR refer to?
OR SIMILAR means that the hotel booked might be different from the hotel mentioned in the itinerary. 90% of the time we book the hotel that’s mentioned, but under few situations it might differ due to on-the-ground factors. So we pick an alternate hotel, but always in the same class and area of the city. -
Why don't you include flights in the Package cost?
Since our wanderers are located a variety of locations in India and outside India - it is impossible to include flights in the trip cost.
