Argentina, Falkland Islands, South Georgia, Antarctica. Trip Code PSG The journey begins sailing east to the Falklands with its large population of Rockhopper and Magellanic penguins along with Black- Browed albatross. The historic side of the islands is also explored before sailing on to South Georgia. Ernest Shackelton is buried here under the spectacular ice-crowned mountains. The ship threads its way through magical fjords to Salisbury Plain and Gold Harbour, places so remote that they have evolved into astonishing wildlife havens boasting a 100,000- plus population of King Penguins and chicks on their beaches. The island also supports significant populations of Elephant and Fur seals. The voyage continues to the South Orkney Islands and then enters an enchanted world of icebergs and ice-covered mountains approaching the bays and channels of the Antarctic Peninsula. This is home to an extraordinary array of wildlife: penguins of almost all descriptions, Leopard and smaller seals, and three or four species of whales. Combining the fascinating history and overwhelming wildlife populations of the Sub- Antarctic with the awesome beauty of Antarctica itself - the ultimate Antarctic expedition.

If you plan to travel to the far ends of the world, make sure you do so in good company. These mother ships - and their crews - that somehow cosset you in the most extreme weather and latitudes are maritime marvels. They are also full of fascinating fellow travellers who have many tales to tell while you await the next polar wonder. You may feel well looked- after in the most convivial company, but the raw edges of the planet are always with you. Hermetically sealed? Never.
