An Antarctic adventure with Silversea

8 nights from £8,050 per person based on 2 sharing

Go beyond the ordinary with a thrilling Drake Passage crossing with Silversea, before exploring Antarctica’s breathtaking realm of glaciers, towering icebergs, and bustling penguin colonies. Take part in expert-led excursions to witness dramatic ice formations, spot migratory birds, and uncover fascinating history. Cruise through the volcanic South Shetland Islands, home to chinstrap penguins and elephant seals, before skipping the return Drake crossing with a convenient flight back. This eight-night voyage aboard the elegant Silver Wind promises an unforgettable journey to the ends of the Earth.
  • Witness the magic of Antarctica’s wildlife up close. From chinstrap penguins waddling along the volcanic shores of the South Shetland Islands to elephant seals basking on icy beaches, every encounter is magical. Keep an eye out for migratory birds and majestic whales as you explore the Antarctic Sound and Peninsula, and feel the anticipation build as you journey through Drake Passage, which leads to the pristine, snow-clad landscapes of Antarctica.

  • Sail into the dramatic caldera of Deception Island’s collapsed volcano, where you can hike its lunar-like terrain or even take a dip in the geothermally heated waters of Pendulum Cove. King George Island, the largest in the archipelago, hosts a collection of international research stations, some manned year-round by hardy crews. With towering peaks like Mount Foster and the legendary history of Elephant Island, this region is a true highlight of your Antarctic adventure.

  • Your home on the water, Silver Wind, offers ocean-view suites with butler service. Indulge in gourmet dining at four distinct restaurants, unwind at the Zagara Beauty Spa, or enjoy a glass of champagne at the Panorama Lounge. With nearly one crew member per guest, personalised service is guaranteed.

  • The on-board dining is equally memorable. Savour freshly grilled seafood at The Grill or enjoy handmade pastas paired with fine wines at La Terrazza. Each meal is crafted to reflect the spirit of your voyage, blending global flavours with the essence of the Antarctic.
