The 14-day Antarctica by Helicopter: Crossing the Circle & the Peninsula is a unique voyage that blends the ultimate polar achievement with unparalleled aerial exploration. Achieving the polar milestone of crossing the Antarctic Circle at 66°30′ is made possible on this journey, which includes multiple helicopter opportunities—at least two heli-flightseeing excursions and one exclusive heli-landing—in the trip's cost. You will soar above the ice-covered 7th Continent, gaining extraordinary perspectives of polar landscapes previously seen only by a few fearless explorers.
The exploration focuses on the southern heart of the Antarctic Peninsula: Crystal Sound and Marguerite Bay, regions known for their massive, steep coastal mountains and stunning geological features. The itinerary is designed for maximum flexibility to adapt to weather, allowing for both helicopter-supported adventures and classic Zodiac excursions for intimate marine and land-based experiences. Daily activities include visiting penguin rookeries, scouting for whales (humpback, minke, fin, and killer whales), and searching for seals (leopard, crabeater, Weddell). You will be among the select few to step onto remote mountains and glaciers, all while learning from polar experts during an enhanced onboard education program.
