Drift silently through glassy Antarctic waters in a private Zodiac to towering icebergs and teeming penguin colonies. This intimate, expert-led experience puts you eye-level with Gentoo and Chinstrap penguins — a bucket-list wildlife encounter unlike anywhere on Earth.
What to expect
Your expedition naturalist pilots a rigid inflatable Zodiac directly into sheltered bays where Gentoo penguin rookeries spill across rocky beaches. You'll hover silently beside blue-veined icebergs the size of cathedrals as leopard seals bask nearby. Landings are flexible — if a whale surfaces, you follow. The experience is entirely shaped by what the Antarctic reveals on the day.
Good to know
Landings are weather and ice-dependent; always be ready 30 minutes before your scheduled Zodiac time. Waterproof expedition gear is typically provided. Pre-book your Zodiac slot well in advance as small-group capacity is strictly limited.
