Buenos Aires

Start with an overnight stay in Buenos Aires before boarding the ship. This is a good chance to arrive, settle in and see part of the city. The cruise departs from here, heading south towards the colder waters of Patagonia.

Ushuaia and Cape Horn

Stop in Ushuaia, known as the southernmost city in the world. Surrounded by mountains and water, it is the last point of land before Antarctica. From here, the ship continues past Cape Horn, one of the most well known maritime routes, where conditions and scenery both change quickly.

Antarctica

Several days are spent cruising through Antarctic waters, including the Schollart Channel, Gerlache Strait, Paradise Bay and Elephant Island. Expect glaciers, icebergs and wide open landscapes, with wildlife such as penguins and seabirds often visible from the ship. The scale of this part of the journey is what makes it stand out, with long daylight hours and uninterrupted views.

Falkland Islands and Patagonia

On the return north, stop in Port Stanley in the Falkland Islands, known for its wildlife and coastal setting. Continue to Puerto Madryn, a gateway to Patagonia, before calling at Montevideo in Uruguay. Each stop offers a different perspective before returning to Buenos Aires.
