Antarctica Expedition
Antarctic Expedition: Discover the Frozen Frontier
Antarctica is a land of mysteries and extremes and remains virtually untouched. Spanning an area of over 14 million square kilometers, it is the fifth-largest continent, yet it remains the least populated and least explored. Its harsh environment, with extremely low temperatures, vast ice sheets, and fierce winds, makes it one of the most inhospitable, but remarkable, places on Earth. Embark on an extraordinary journey to the majestic landscapes for a once in a lifetime expedition with Original Senses as your experienced guide.
Following our highly praised set departure to Antarctica in February 2024, we give you a breakdown of all the adventures the expedition has to offer.
The journey begins by arriving, for one night, in the vibrant city of Buenos Aires. The next day, on a private charter flight to Ushuaia, the gateway to the white continent, the travelers have the chance to explore the charming streets of the southernmost city in the world before setting sail. The Antarctic expedition on sea starts with crossing the legendary Drake Passage, mesmerized by the invigorating Southern Ocean air and the opportunity to spot seabirds and marine life from the comfort of the luxurious vessel are the first feelings of the trip.
