Santiago TO Punta Arenas
23-day all-inclusive Antarctica Expedition Cruise with round-trip flights from Santiago de Chile
Three distinct destination all in one: South Georgia, the Falkland Islands and Antarctica - with four days in the White Continent.
Witness a wide variety of iconic wildlife species, including nesting penguins, fur seals and whales.
Explore the lush green hills of the Falklands and the alpine landscapes of South Georgia, as well as the iceberg-studded seas of Antarctica.
An Antarctic expedition
We’ll set sail from Chile to explore the unique world of South Georgia and Antarctica. Every day our route will be guided by nature, and we’ll make the best of local conditions. Each sunrise will offer something different and thrilling. In October and November on the Seventh Continent, penguins start courting and nesting. In December and January, the summer brings longer, milder days, and in February and March whales and penguin chicks abound.
Wild islands of adventure
The Falkland Islands are windswept and beautiful, and they’re home to a wide variety of wildlife, while South Georgia has colonies of penguins and seals, and is designated an Important Bird Area. It’s a place of spectacular alpine landscapes, fur seal colonies and ghostly, abandoned whaling stations. The weather sets the agenda on these rugged islands, so in true expedition style we’ll adapt to the conditions and have a truly unforgettable adventure.

Every day of your expedition cruise, your tastebuds will get the opportunity to explore. In each of our onboard restaurants, our skilled chefs create exciting menus using ingredients from the areas we travel.
Embarking on MS Fram, you’ll quickly feel safe and relaxed. Surrounding you with quality, natural materials and plenty of light and space, your expedition ship is reassuring, comfortable and built for adventure.
Your ship comes equipped with full suite of facilities to maintain an active lifestyle. From an indoor gym to a wellness centre for both body and mind, you’ll find everything you need to feel fully rejuvenated.
Our expedition ships – MS Roald Amundsen, MS Fridtjof Nansen, MS Fram, MS Spitsbergen, MS Santa Cruz II – are more than just a way to travel - they’re your home in the heart of the wild. Instead of an onboard casino, we have the Science Centre. Instead of cabaret shows, you have all the show you need outside the windows. No water slides, just kayaking trips or small-boat safaris along the coast in the Arctic, Antarctic, or the Galápagos.
We offer a rich and varied program of optional shore excursions. In many ports, we offer an included excursion, which can be reserved for no additional charge. In many cases the included excursion can be combined with other optional excursions in the port. Most excursions can be pre-booked but may also be bookable onboard if capacity remains.
We advise that you book well in advance in order to avoid disappointment due to the excursion b....
