"Grigoriy Mikheev" and "Aleksey Maryshev"
"Professor Molchanov" and the "Professor Multanovskiy"
Winner of the World Travel Award of
"World’s Leading Polar Expedition Operator 2005".
Antarctica and the Sub-Antarctic Islands are some of the last truly unspoilt regions of the world. The mysterious White Continent, with its multi-coloured ice caps, glistening glaciers and towering snow-capped mountains, offers unparalleled scenery and photographic opportunities. Enormous numbers of penguins, whales, seals and seabirds congregate in the food-rich waters along the Antarctic and sub-Antarctic shores. The future of Antarctica is crucial to the climate and ecology of the world and on most of our cruises we have an opportunity to visit one of the many scientific bases.
Our small, specially designed expedition ships journey
south, taking full advantage of the 24 hours of daylight during the austral
summer. Ice-strengthened hulls and state-of-the-art equipment allow us
to navigate safely through the pack ice and narrow waterways. Our zodiac
excursions, guided by foremost Antarctic experts, offer the freedom to
explore remote locations and observe Antarctica’s abundant wildlife.
Our itineraries include the Antarctic Peninsula
and South Shetland Islands, Falkland Islands (Malvinas), South Georgia
and the South Orkney Islands. Our itineraries have been meticulously researched
to offer exciting, rewarding and incredibly varied experiences but above
all else the crew and expedition staff believe that flexibility is the
key to a successful voyage. By constantly assessing and responding to
environmental conditions at the time, they are confident of fulfilling
visitors' well-deserved expectations of an experience of a lifetime.
The Antarctic Peninsula offers you the most
dramatic scenery and biggest variety of wildlife in Antarctica. In the
southern summer large ice-free areas provide breeding grounds for very
large numbers of seabirds and seals.
