Guide

English-speaking expedition team Two German-speaking lecturers or expedition members will be on board, on departures reflecting it accordingly. Informational meetings, important onboard announcements, one lecture per voyage, and daily summaries will be in German on these cruise departures. The expedition team will attempt to send German-speaking guests as a group on Zodiac trips/land excursions; however, there is not always the possibility of having a German-speaking driver or lecturer on every single Zodiac/excursion. Safety briefings are either translated, or guests are informed in writing of the safety precautions on the cabin (letter or on the cabin TV). The onboard language continues to be English, and staff and crew communicate largely in English. The onboard program is subject to change at short notice.

Itinerary of your trip Antarctica, South Georgia And Falkland Islands- Ocean Victor

  • Day 1 Day 1: Arrival And Embarkation In Ushuaia
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 1: Arrival And Embarkation In Ushuaia

      Arrive and embark in Ushuaia, Argentina - the worldโ€™s southernmost town. Explore the quaint city or local countryside. Alternatively, consider a day trip off the beaten path to the raw, natural archipelago of Tierra del Fuego. It's a hiker's paradise with rugged snow-capped mountains, glaciers, flower-filled meadows and boggy quagmires. In the afternoon, we board our ship, Ocean Atlantic. Our journey begins as we navigate through the calms of Beagle Channel, a strait in the Tierra del Fuego Archipelago.

  • Day 2 Day 2-3: At Sea. Drake Passage, King George Island
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2-3: At Sea. Drake Passage, King George Island

      Sailing onward, we cross the famed Drake Passage - a body of water that marks the intersection of the cold Antarctic with the warmer Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Drake Passage is known for strong westerly winds, heavy sea, and its nickname โ€˜The Roaring Fiftiesโ€™. While this passage may be challenging, you can rest confidently aboard our expedition vessel, Ocean Atlantic, which is purpose-built with stabilizers, powerful engines and a highly qualified crew. The most spirited sailors consider Drake Passage a lifetime achievement โ€“ and soon you can tick it off on the list yourself! ย  In the Drake, the excitement builds as Antarctic wildlife comes into view with our first sight of seals, penguins and albatrosses. Having crossed the Drake, we will explore the sub-Antarctic islands of the South Shetland chain and be marveled by the captivating landscapes we will encounter along the way. Weather permitting, we hope to make our first landfall on King George Island before continuing further south to the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula.

  • Day 3 Day 4-6: Antarctic Sound And Weddell Sea
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 4-6: Antarctic Sound And Weddell Sea

      Over the coming days, we will begin the exciting Antarctic experience at the very tip of the Continent. During these days in the Antarctic Sound, named in 1902 after the Swedish vessel Antarctic, the Captain and the Expedition Team will keep a watchful eye on the mighty tabular icebergs, born from the floating Larsen Ice Shelf further south. We aim to have both continental and island landings on the shores of Antarctic Sound and Weddell Sea, always on the lookout for some of the unusually large penguin colonies, which have recently been observed. The itinerary and activities over the next few days depend on weather and ice conditions. The route and shore landings will be determined by the Captain and Expedition Leader and communicated to the guests through regularly scheduled briefings.

Tour leaving from Ushuaia

It is a city located in the extreme south of Argentina, in the archipelago of Tierra del Fuego, the southern tip of South America, nicknamed the "End of the World". It is also the southernmost city in the world, located between the Beagle Channel and the Martial mountain range. The only city in Argentina located on the other side of the Andes. The four cardinal points have a different landscape to show us, a different environment, and that is what you will experience during this adventure. Among other things, Ushuaia is known for its changing climate. If you ask a local "Have you seen the forecast?" They will respond "Get out and feel the weather; and be careful! It will change throughout the day!" Four seasons in one day are part of the norm here. Here you will find the longest winter season in South America. The amount of activities and destinations that this city has to offer will surely take your breath away more than once.
