FAQ

What is the best time to visit?
November–March for Antarctica; May–September for the Arctic. The Antarctic summer offers 24-hour daylight and wildlife activity.
What is the Drake Passage?
The Drake Passage is the stretch of ocean between South America and Antarctica — notorious for rough seas. Fly-cruise options bypass it entirely.
What physical fitness is required?
Zodiac landings require stepping in and out of inflatable boats. Most guests in reasonable health can participate. We'll advise on specific requirements.
