TAUCK

"The ultimate Antarctica travel experience! Cruise aboard one of Tauck's newest luxe mega-yachts, Le Soléal or Le Boréal to the majestic ice-clad continent of Antarctica after spending two nights in Buenos Aires – an exciting 10-night expeditionary voyage with on-board naturalists, oceanographers and ornithologists. Floating castles of ice glisten in the warmth of the austral sun... glacial mountains rise from the sea, framed against a radiant sky... in an instant, a bright sun illuminates a floating regatta of ice formations... Explorers throughout the centuries have been mesmerized and captivated by the ice... Today, you are that Antarctic explorer." - TAUCK

NORWAY

"This 10-day trip – including a 7-night expedition cruise north of Norway in the wildlife capital of the Arctic – explores a remote archipelago of glaciers, fjords, and ice floes, revered for its silent majesty by nature lovers in the know. From Oslo, fly to Spitsbergen's main settlement, Longyearbyen, and embark on a 7-night Arctic Ocean cruise aboard Le Boréal. Go where the weather and movement of wildlife tell you to go, seeking out tiny Svalbard reindeer, polar bears, walrus colonies, whales, Arctic foxes, puffins, and more. A wildlife filmmaker from BBC Earth and expedition naturalists accompany you onboard ship and ashore throughout your voyage in the land of the Midnight Sun, where daylight never ends. Come ashore by Zodiac with your naturalist guides and expedition leaders for rocky treks through this altogether otherworldly landscape of jagged mountains, steep-sided valleys, sheer cliffs, and crackling, calving glaciers. You’ll be far above the Arctic Circle – the closest you can get to the North Pole! Onboard ship at night, enjoy talks, informal conversations with your expedition guides, exclusive BBC Earth films, and the camaraderie that only Arctic explorers can share. " - TAUCK
