Skip the lines for shore landings. Come with friends or make new ones over dinner on board. With just 10−18 guests, the atmosphere is warm and easygoing, with space to take in Antarctica in peace.
We adapt to the weather, wildlife, and opportunities each day brings. We can change course, linger at a favorite spot, or spend longer watching whales. Our itinerary leaves room for the moments you came all this way to experience.
200+ expeditions
Polar experts since 2015
Polar experts since 2015
We’ve led more than 200 expeditions across the Arctic and Antarctica since 2015. Our work here includes scientific missions, too. You travel with a team whose knowledge comes from years of navigating, exploring, and working in the polar regions.
The Drake Passage separates South America from Antarctica: the world’s widest strait, with some of its roughest seas. For ocean lovers, it’s a bucket-list crossing. If you’re less sure of your sea legs, flying saves time and takes you straight to Antarctica’s more sheltered waters. We offer both.

Rather than leave cabins empty, we are releasing them at a special final-availability rate.
These are the remaining places on scheduled Amazone departures for the 2026–27 Antarctic season.

10% special discount + 10% for full payment
Punta Arenas → King George Island → Antarctic Peninsula → Drake Passage → Ushuaia
Begin in Punta Arenas and fly to King George Island, where you will board Amazone. Explore the Antarctic Peninsula before crossing the Drake Passage under sail and arriving in Ushuaia.
Whichever option you choose, the expedition programme in Antarctica will be the same.
On suitable days, the programme typically includes two or three landings or Zodiac outings.
Return to Amazone for a hot meal — and head out again when conditions are right.
Wake up among icebergs. Go ashore by Zodiac. Walk beside penguin colonies. Watch for whales and seals. Visit Antarctic research stations when access is possible.
THE CONTINENT IS THE PROGRAMME
The exact route and landing sites may change depending on weather, ice and wildlife conditions. The captain always makes the final decision based on safety and the best available expedition opportunities.
Our first encounter with Antarctica. We will visit the Russian polar station “Bellingshausen,” get acquainted with the life of researchers, meet the first penguins, and, if we’re lucky, warm up in a real Russian bathhouse.
King George Island, Bellingshausen Station
One of the best places to photograph Papuan penguins. Bird colonies nest right on the shore, and the harsh Antarctic landscape is complemented by the remains of ancient animals preserved among the rocks.
Yankee Bay
Black volcanic sand, dark cliffs, and Weddell seals create one of the most contrasting and photogenic landscapes in Antarctica.
Half Moon Island
The contrast between the black volcanic sand, geothermal steam, and the abandoned whaling station makes this place one of the most cinematic locations of the entire expedition.
Deception Island
Here you can see the bow of a sunken whaling ship, which has been rising above the water for over a century, creating one of the most unusual scenes in Antarctica.
Enterprise Island
Glaciers, icebergs, and dozens of whales that regularly appear near the sailboat. One of the most spectacular spots of the entire expedition.
Melchior Islands
A place where you can immerse yourself in the history of polar expeditions and send a postcard from the southernmost post office on Earth.
Port of Lockroy
A narrow strait surrounded by majestic glaciers and snow‑capped peaks. One of the most photogenic spots on the route, where whales often appear.
Lemaire
One of the best expedition locations for photographing Papuan penguins. Here, the colony numbers in the thousands, and the glaciers and rocky shores create an ideal backdrop for photos.
Couverville Island
One of the places where you can set foot on mainland Antarctica. The bay is surrounded by glaciers and steep peaks, and Antarctic penguins nest on the rocky ridge.
