This trip combines the teeming wildlife of the sub-Antarctic islands with the awe-inspiring landscapes of the Antarctic Peninsula. We visit Stanley, a remote British outpost in the Falkland Islands, for a taste of settlement life. We then cross the Scotia Sea to South Georgia, where
snow and ice capped peaks line the skyline while lush tussock grass carpets the lower hills and abandoned whaling stations have been reclaimed by fur seals. Climbers will cross the island’s mountains in Sir Ernest Shackleton’s footsteps as paddlers enjoy close up encounters with majestic king penguins.
