Antarctica Expedition Join us for an unforgettable journey to a land of dazzling white. It's a desert – the coldest, driest and most barren place on Earth – but alive with the cries of vast colonies of birds, sea creatures and mammals. This frozen continent has long attracted the most accomplished adventurers and scientists, and now APT guests can experience this majestic and surreal landscape on an expedition to Antarctica. Experience & Knowledge The staff aboard your Antarctica cruise have an in-depth knowledge of the local wildlife and terrain, offering a truly nature- based approach to tourism. Your days will be filled with exciting activities taking you up close to the many natural wonders of Antarctica, including Zodiac cruises to explore icebergs, enthralling excursions ashore with hiking opportunities, and visits to penguin rookeries and seal colonies. APT Signature Experiences The South Shetland Islands are steeped in history. Here you'll explore Deception Island, the caldera of an active volcano and location of the first Antarctic flight. You'll also cruise the Antarctic Peninsula, the northernmost part of mainland Antarctica; be amazed by South Georgia's large elephant seals; and see several whaling stations and remnants of old outposts, including the grave of the audacious explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. Antarctica Cruising A voyage to Antarctica is one of the world's greatest adventures. It's not surprising that the combination of extreme environment and remote beauty captivates so many. With epic landscapes and charming wildlife at every turn, leave the routine of daily life behind and embark on a breathtaking journey. 96 Visit the quaint village of Stanley in the Falkland Islands Watch as huge icebergs drift past your ship
