Inaugural Air-Cruise

Begin your Antarctic quest in Punta Arenas and voyage through remote southern fjords, along the legendary Beagle Channel, and across the formidable Drake Passage to reach the white wilderness of Antarctica. Encounter untouched landscapes, dramatic ice formations, and diverse wildlife. With flexible daily landings led by an expert team, each day presents new surprises and moments of awe in one of the most extreme environments on Earth.

Day by day

Day 1 : Start of the air-cruise

Set sail from the southern Chilean port of Punta Arenas, navigating the historic Strait of Magellan. As you head toward Cape Froward, the southernmost point of the South American continent, observe seabirds and marine life in their natural habitat. Magellanic penguins, cormorants, and other coastal species are commonly sighted in this windswept region, offering a fitting start to your polar journey.

Day 2 : Explore Southern Patagonia

As your vessel enters the glacier-lined waterways of Southern Patagonia, you may be greeted by Peale’s dolphins darting through the waves. Sail through the dramatic Glacier Alley and venture out by Zodiac to the mighty Garibaldi Glacier. Surrounded by steep cliffs and lush vegetation, the site offers a powerful display of nature’s grandeur and a chance to experience one of Patagonia’s least-visited gems up close.
