Voyage Itinerary

Before you board

One night in Santiago and one night in Puerto Williams

Fly overnight from the UK to Santiago de Chile where you will be met at the airport and transferred to your included hotel for an overnight stay. The following day, transfer to the airport for your charter flight to Puerto Williams where you will enjoy an overnight stay at Silversea's brand-new hotel, The Cormorant at 55 South. The following day, you will join a charter flight directly into King George Island, Antarctica where you will join Silver Endeavour and begin your expedition.

10 November

Antarctica: King George Island

The relative proximity of King George Island to South America, together with the fact that around 10% of the island is ice-free, means that there are several research stations clustered here, along with an airfield. It’s the biggest island in the South Shetlands archipelago, and is also home to the world’s most southerly Russian Orthodox church!

11 November

Antarctica: Antarctic Sound

The Antarctic Sound is a 37-mile channel that separates the Joinville Island group from the Antarctic Peninsula. Prepare to be amazed as you sail among vast icebergs that have broken free from the Larsen Ice Shelf, and look out for wildlife including Gentoo penguins and whales.

12 November to 14 November

Antarctica: Antarctic Peninsula

Antarctica is the world’s last great wilderness, an alien landscape of snow-covered mountains, jagged icebergs and extraordinary wildlife. Visiting at the beginning of the cruise season in October or November means bigger icebergs and pristine snowy landscapes, along with the chance to see breeding elephant seals. There may still be sea ice around the Antarctic Peninsula, and temperatures are cold. Expedition trips will spend time exploring the peninsula, making several landings at various sites and cruising through scenic channels.

15 November

Antarctica: South Shetland Islands

Icy and remote, the South Shetland Islands are situated about 100 miles north of the Antarctic peninsula. The archipelago is home to a scattering of research stations, along with thousands of penguins, seals and sea lions, as well as the Endurance Memorial Site that commemorates Shackleton's famous expedition here on the south west shore of Elephant Island.

16 November

Antarctica: King George Island

Before you return

One night in Puerto Williams

Disembark your cruise in King George Island, Antarctica and enjoy a charter flight to Puerto Williams, Chile. Here you will enjoy a further overnight stay at The Cormorant at 55 South, and the following day you will join a charter flight back to Santiago where you will connect with your onward flight back to the UK.
