Antarctica
the Wild
South
The world's last great
wilderness...
yours to explore in 2005-06
As
Australia’s first adventure tour operator to the
Antarctic we are proud to announce the release of our all-new,
comprehensive 2005/06 brochure.
Previously, separate brochures were issued for the Ross Sea icebreaker
expeditions and the Antarctic Peninsula cruises. Now we have combined
both into one all-encompassing issue, with a complete choice of Antarctic
cruise options under the one cover.
Ross Sea Region
Our Ross Sea icebreaker program sees a welcome return
of the popular EMPERORS
OF ANTARCTICA expeditions,
only this time we are offering two departures. The largest of the penguins,
Emperors are the only birds that breed on the frozen sea. During this
extraordinary voyage we will visit their colonies on endless expanses
of pack ice, surrounded by stunning, sculpted tabular icebergs.
Our third expedition aboard the icebreaker Khlebnikov is a 24-day voyage,
WONDERS OF THE ROSS SEA, including visits to the famous,
historic huts of Scott, Shackleton and Borchgrevink. Prices start from
US$13,900. US$500 Early Booking Discounts are available for deposited
bookings prior to 28 February 2005 on all three Kapitan Khlebnikov expeditions.
Antarctic Peninsula Region
The 2005/06 Peninsula season features departures
from November through to March aboard four superbly-equipped ice-class
vessels. Choose from a variety of itineraries ranging in length from
10 to 19 days. The shorter “CLASSIC
ANTARCTICA” expeditions concentrate
on the rich wildlife and scenic areas of the Peninsula, while the longer "ANTARCTIC
ODYSSEY" expedition
includes fabulous South Georgia and the Falkland Islands. Antarctic Peninsula
cruises begin at just US$2900, low season, triple
share.
One notable feature of the season is the new 14-day “ANTARCTIC
CIRCLE CROSSING” itinerary, with two special departures.
Previously, cruises along the western shore of the Peninsula had
turned back well before the “circle”. Here is your chance
to make an historic crossing.
Early Booking Discounts between
US$150 to US$500 are available for deposited bookings prior to 28
February 2005 on all Antarctic Peninsula expeditions.
Now
is the chance to make your Antarctic dream come true - we hope you
will join us!
