Our 2024 Antarctica Group making a continental landing at Portal Point!

Join Divergent Travel Trips for our third group trip to Antarctica! We have been to the 7th continent four times (soon to be five), and we can’t wait to share our favorite place on the planet with you.

Less than 1% of the population will ever visit Antarctica.

Spend 10 days with us on an expedition to explore the Antarctic Peninsula and the South Shetland Islands.

Our expedition dates align with PRISTINE early-season landscapes, courting penguins, and whale arrivals! We’ll also have the opportunity to CAMP on the continent!

Antarctica Cruise

Our trip will be operated in partnership with a top polar expedition company. This means we’ll have access to the amazing expedition guides.

We will spend expedition time crossing the Drake Passage, visiting the South Shetland Islands, and the Antarctic Peninsula. Each touchpoint offers you different landscapes to explore, wildlife to observe, and activities.

Every single day in Antarctica you will get off the ship! We are not just sailing by. You’ll get to touch, smell, feel, and explore this stunning continent.

Our expert expedition team will be off the ship with us, exploring and educating. Onboard, they will offer educational seminars so you can truly get to know this wild place.

Using the expedition ship, World Traveller, as our base, we’ll explore this extreme region of the world in comfort. You’ll be offered prime photography opportunities and assistance with your settings to ensure you get great photos if you desire.

Daily activities include zodiac cruises, landings, paddling excursions (extra), camping (extra), and wildlife spotting. Our days will be dictated by weather conditions and animal sightings.

Something to note: You do not need to be a photographer to join this trip. The focus of this trip is to provide a full immersion into the wildness of Antarctica. But, if you want to take photos, we’ll have amazing opportunities to do so.

If all you have is an iPhone, no worries! We can help you achieve the most with it.

If photography is of no interest to you at all, that’s ok too.

Overnight: Expedition Ship (B-L-D)

November 10-11, 2025 – Cross the Drake Passage

You will settle into life at sea as we cross the infamous Drake Passage. It is the only thing that stands between us and Antarctica. You will enjoy onboard lectures about various Antarctic topics, as well as, safety briefings.

Navigating the intrepid Drake Passage is made for the boldest of explorers. Petrels and albatrosses that glide across the skies guide the way. To witness its awesome power makes the journey to Antarctica all the more triumphant.

The Drake Passage leads you from the southernmost region of the Americas to the Antarctic Peninsula, the northern point of The White Continent. This waterway where cold southern ocean meets warm northern sea water creates powerful currents that test your mettle.

But the rewards for the journeyer who braves these waters do not compare. The meeting of warm and cold waters creates an environment that attracts extraordinary wildlife. The Drake Passage offers the chance to witness the likes of humpback whales and hourglass dolphins that accompany the voyage. The soundtrack of the 48-hour journey through the Drake Passage includes the crash of the ocean against the ship and the cry of petrels, skuas, and gulls.

While the waterway is famous for its challenging navigation, you may still get another side of the Drake Passage. On some occasions, the channel is calm and tranquil, making for a pleasant voyage into Antarctica. That’s one of the more splendid characteristics of the Drake Passage – you never know what you will get.

As you emerge from the Drake Passage, the icy peaks of the South Shetland Islands loom ahead, greeting you on your victorious landing. You have completed the rite of passage to explore the seventh continent.

Depending on sea conditions, we may arrive to the South Shetland Islands at the end of the second day.

November 12, 2025 – South Shetland Islands and/or Antarctica Peninsula

Part of the greater Antarctica region, the South Shetland Islands contain plenty of wildlife, scenic landscapes, hiking opportunities, and magnificent viewpoints that inspire a sense of discovering another world. Deception Island, a possible landing and named for its very nature, is in fact a volcanic caldera where you can find heated springs amid the striking black sands. Other stops could include Half Moon Island, Yankee Harbor, Point Wild, and Barrientos Island, where you can find plenty of Gentoo penguin rookeries.

CAPTAIN’S CHOICE — Your Captain will expertly navigate ice floes, icebergs, and changing sea and weather conditions to ensure you experience the most from your expedition. Each day is a new adventure filled with a spontaneous sense of exploration as your Captain works with our expedition team to determine possible shore landings and Zodiac safaris. All itinerary routes serve as examples and are subject to change based on current conditions, prioritizing the safety and optimal expedition experience for all guests.

November 13-15, 2025 – Antarctic Peninsula

Nicknamed The White Continent for its vast expanse of icebergs, snow, and glaciers, Antarctica is often the final frontier for experienced explorers to conquer. As you navigate Antarctic waters, you may set foot on sites like Beak Island, Brown Bluff, Cierva Cove, Hidden Bay, and many more. Each landing throughout the continent offers its own unique landscape, from expansive tundra to rugged mountain peaks, all beckoning you to follow the paths that few explorers have trekked before.

Trip Perks

If you’re looking for a trip to Antarctica at an insane value, this trip is for you.

This is a luxury ship with many amenities included that you won’t find on other ships. This includes an open bar, pre-paid gratuities, charter flights, and hotel pre-night.

Ezeiza Airport (EZE) is the largest international airport in Argentina and most likely your port of arrival. Most (if not all) flights from the USA arrive in the morning, and you’ll need to clear immigration and customs, then take a transfer to our included trip hotel.

You will need to arrive in Buenos Aires no later than 4 PM on November 8, 2025.

At the end of the trip, on November 18, 2025, your charter flight from Ushuaia will arrive in Buenos Aires around 5 PM. A minimum of 3 hours is required between the charter arrival and departing flights are required. Do not book outbound international travel before 8 PM and, if possible, not before 9 PM.

Argentina is a visa-free country that offers visas on arrival for most passports. If you’re from the US, Canada, Australia, the UK, and most of Europe, you can enter for 90 days visa-free.

We will be visiting during the southern summer season. It will be during the warmest time for this part of the world. That said, temperatures will hover at or just above freezing for most of the visit. But the windchill can and will be cold.

The World Traveller is considered a luxury expedition ship. It can accommodate a maximum of 198 passengers.

Room sharing – if you are traveling solo and select the shared room option, we will do our best to pair you with someone of the same gender. We’ll do our best to pair you with someone we think you’ll click with based on your signup forms.

We cannot guarantee that you’ll mesh well with your assigned roommate. This is very rare, but it does sometimes happen.

Things to Consider – If you like your own space after a day of adventuring, are a light sleeper, or snore, sharing may not be a good fit for you.

In the event that you are incompatible with your assigned roommate and need to change rooms, your trip host will either swap shared rooming arrangements or work with the ship to get you a solo room. Please note that if you have to switch to a solo room, you will be subject to a solo supplement.

If you sign up for a shared room and we are unable to pair you with another solo shared traveler before the trip starts, your booking may become a solo booking. If this happens, we will notify you and the single supplement will apply.

If you do not want to share, it is possible to have your own room with the additional fee of a single supplement.

Note: this option is limited.

It is possible to have a solo private room but this option is limited. The cost to have a solo private room for the whole trip is calculated at 1.5x the listed rate for standard cabins and 2x the listed rate for suites.

This trip is rated Moderate. You will be walking on various types of ground and loading/unloading into moving zodiac boats throughout the trip.

Due to the nature of being in the Antarctica, this entire itinerary is part of a supervised program. If you want to go on adventures, it has to be with our group. That said, if you want to forego any activities in favor of rest and relaxation on the ship, this is possible.

You will not have phone service once the ship leaves port in Ushuaia. The ship does offer WIFI packages. They can be purchased onboard. Please note, that they are expensive and slow. We recommend that you plan to disconnect entirely and be present while in Antarctica. It’s a place of wonders you do not want to miss.

Once you embark on the ship in Ushuaia your accommodation, activities, food, filtered water, and non-alcoholic drinks are included. You will need money to cover meals in Buenos Aires, Ushuaia, airport transfers, and souvenirs.
