Celebrate with us during this festive season with this Christmas In Antarctica voyage and explore the majestic white continent, enjoying abundant wildlife encounters and the striking panoramic landscape of the Antarctic Sound, Weddell Sea and Antarctic Peninsula. The Polar Latitudes team ensures that the spirit onboard the ship is festive and fun, delivering an unforgettable experience for your holiday season.
Seaventure features a 1-A Super ice class rating — the highest ice class awarded to passenger vessels. The ship offers all outside-facing staterooms (some with balconies) and beautifully appointed dining areas, as well as al fresco dining on the Lido deck when weather permits. Seaventure also offers a heated saltwater pool on the top deck, a sauna and fitness center, and a dedicated Citizen Science lab.
This expedition is with Polar Latitudes, an Antarctica Specialist that focuses 100% of their voyages on the Antarctica region. The expedition company ensures the main attraction on every journey is creating an up-close and personal connection with one of the last truly wild places on earth. And everything Polar Latitudes does, on board and off, is to enhance that experience. All expeditions are on 4* ships, either the MS Seaventure or the MS Island Sky.
