Compare Our Antarctica Ships

Antarctica holidays have traditionally been all about the destination and much less about the ship you’re on. Until the 21st century, travel was limited to sturdy and functional scientific research vessels and icebreakers, with few frills and ideally suited to adventurous travellers. Today’s new generation of Antarctic ships is chiefly dedicated to leisure expedition travel, some offering levels of luxury barely imaginable just a few years ago. All ships are small by the standards of the gigantic liners of the Caribbean or the Med, and all are ice-strengthened. Price and comfort levels are only partial indicators: every ship carries a high-calibre English-speaking team and crew dedicated to making sure your trip is safe and fulfilling. So, whether you share a quad-berth cabin on an economic vessel or a balcony stateroom on a higher end cruise, you should find your Antarctic experience is first class.
