Antarctic Express: Crossing the Circle

Visit the Antarctic Peninsula, going south of the Antarctic Circle, but skip the Drake Passage by flying instead
A short, comfortable flight from Punta Arenas, Chile, to King George Island in Antarctica has you with boots on the ground in no time, overtaken by the sheer magnitude of the 7th Continent. Fully immersed in the Antarctic environment, you’ll experience a roller coaster of emotions, from excitement to exquisite solitude to incredible gratitude for the wonder of it all. You may go in search of whales and find yourself bearing witness to a glacier calving. Or you may plan to climb one more peak for a better vantage point and find yourself in a rookery of curious penguins. Antarctica will leave you in awe, but it won’t leave you unchanged.

Improving life for People, Places & Planet
After 50-years of delivering world-class adventures, trips and tours, we know better than most how awe-inspiring, horizon-expanding, and life-enriching travel can be. And at Exodus Adventure Travels we firmly believe travel should improve life for the people and places we visit too.
Our People, Places & Planet plan lays out the ways in which we persistently and passionately seek to improve life through travel — for the places we visit, people we meet, and the planet we explore. This includes taking a nature positive approach which focuses on our adventures giving back more to our planet and its ecosystems than they take.
