Wildlife vacations in Antarctica
An Antarctic wildlife cruise lets you step into a scene from The Frozen Planet. Orcas and huge humpback whales breach beneath huger icebergs and 3m-long leopard seals hunt penguins beneath the waves, while giant albatross and petrels patrol the skies. Even better - most of it is fearless, meaning the inquisitive penguins are likely to approach you as you photograph them. On-board lectures explain more about life on the planet’s least hospitable continent.
