Antarctic Expeditions
The South Pole
We can take you to a part of the world others can only dream of”¦
Witnesses of this landscape of ice and stillness compare it to paradise. The only place in the world with no native human population, the Antarctic may be the last place on earth where everything is once as it was, a million years ago. With 5 million square miles of glacial ice, a human presence is no larger than a drop in the ocean. The infinite landscape of the Antarctic, humbling and breathtaking to say the least, is home to the world’s greatest concentration of wildlife, where penguins, seals and whales are the only permanent residents. The sighting of a gigantic blue whale or of 100’000 pairs of Adelie penguins adds to this unparalleled experience on no man’s land.
Quark Expeditions has been the world leader in polar adventures for over two decades and successfully operated many first-ever passenger voyages to Antarctica, including the Circumnavigation of the Antarctic continent and the first Weddell Sea voyage. That’s why we’d like to organize your voyage of a lifetime with them. You’ll explore the iconic sights that make this one of the world’s most pristine and unforgettable natural environments, they’ll take you off the beaten track, to rare and seldom-visited sites. They’ll even cross the Antarctic Circle with you, reaching the playgrounds of the Falklands and South Georgia to experience the awe-inspiring king penguin rookeries, the “Galapagos of the Poles”.
