South Georgia & Falklands Cruises

Surrounded by the restless churning of the South Atlantic Ocean, spectacularly picturesque with towering 7,000ft mountains, vast glaciers and wind-ravaged beaches, South Georgia is a dramatic place indeed. Wildlife on South Georgia is abundant, and for many it is the real jewel in the crown of the Southern Ocean, and an absolute treat for nature enthusiasts. Experience the extraordinary colonies of king and gentoo penguin numbering into the millions, marvel at the acrobatics of the wandering albatross while observing beaches crowded with elephant seals and macaroni penguins. For history buffs it is also rich in history, particularly from the Heroic era of Antarctic exploration.

Less harsh than South Georgia, the beautiful and wild Falkland Islands play host to an astonishing and very tame diversity of wildlife. Combined with its fascinating history, it's a compelling place that richly rewards those who make it. This is nature's kingdom, where the husky cry of the sea lion, the quizzical gaze of the penguin and the unfamiliar companionship of the striated caracara are a reminder of who is in charge.
