Scenic Eclipse II, 24 Nights Mawson’s Antarctica: Along the East Coast ex Queenstown to Hobart
For centuries, avid travellers and explorers have been fascinated by the world’s most southern continent, a place where penguins congregate in the thousands and people are few and far between. With an ever-changing landscape of glaciers and icebergs, Antarctica’s realms are wild - particularly along the East Coast, where Australia has a rich history of exploration thanks to the pioneering efforts of explorer Sir Douglas Mawson. You’ll have the rare opportunity to follow in the footsteps of Mawson and his team, navigating remote bays and ravishing coves and islands where wildlife rules supreme. And you’ll see it in 6-star ultra-luxury on board Scenic Eclipse, in the company of only up to 200 guests. The itinerary provided is an example of what you may experience. Antarctica is an incredible destination, and you will be exposed to the unpredictability of the region. The expert team on board will work with the weather and ice conditions to deliver a wonderous voyage.
