As an extension to its product range in Latin America, ADVENTURESIncorporated (A.I). has announced the ultimate in adventure – Antarctica. Considered by many as the final travel frontier, Antarctica is becoming increasingly popular for all adventurers and is moving up the wish list of Globetrotting travellers, partly due to limited numbers that are able to visit this region.
There are no permanent human residents and Antarctica has never had an indigenous population. The only residents are researchers, varying from approximately 4000 people in summer to 1000 people in winter. Only cold-adapted plants and animals survive in Antarctica, including penguins, fur seals, blue whales, mosses, lichens, and many types of algae.
The Antarctic expedition cruises offered by A.I. operate aboard purpose built vessels (previously operated as Russian research ice breakers) that have been fully converted for the comfort of our clients. They offer travellers up to 4 landings a day, maximized by the extended daylight in the south, as well as having clients up close and personal with a menagerie of polar wildlife. Other adventure options include overnight camping, kayaking and even diving!
“Antarctica by its nature and location is a high cost trip, but within those parameters we have prices to cater to all budgets” says Don Forster, A.I.’s Product Development Manager. “Savvy agents that specialize in this unique destination can earn big commissions by having the knowledge and expertise to confidently sell this niche product.”
With over 22 departures during the season (Northern Hemisphere winter), and a wide selection of itineraries that may include South Georgia and the Falklands Islands, and pricing for all budgets, Antarctica is a new jewel in the Goway family of destinations.
Sample trips include:
13 days Christmas in the Weddell Sea from $8150 USD per person.
19 days Antarctica, Falklands & South Georgia from $7800 USD per person.
