Cruises in Antarctica

Breaching humpback whales. Icebergs towering over your Zodiac boat. Thousand-strong colonies of penguins cawing at their young… You could experience all this and more on a tailor-made Antarctic expedition cruise with Audley. We’ll design your ideal trip with you, paying close attention to your interests, your travel style and your budget. Our Antarctica specialists have explored the polar regions extensively by expedition cruise vessel and will lead you to experiences you won’t find on larger, more commercial ships.

Spot a solitary albatross hovering over the stormy waters of Drake Passage. Experience Antarctica’s turbulent winds from the ship’s deck. Kayak through the impossibly narrow channel of Neptune’s Bellows. Meet scientists living on a research base. Hear direct from experts about Antarctica’s natural and human history. See the ghostly vestiges of an abandoned whaling station.

The craggy caldera of Deception Island, half swallowed by the ocean. Chunks of ice so old they’re a deep cerulean blue. Elephant seals with their pups. Travel at your own pace, in your own style, with the confidence that we’ll show you the best options, wherever you go.
