From Australia to Antarctica
Join one of the few Antarctic cruises that sail directly from Australia to the White Continent. Following the route of legendary explorers like Shackleton and Scott, you’ll witness the whales, orcas, penguins and seals, the icebergs and glaciers that fascinated these early adventurers.
Be inspired by the majesty of East Antarctica’s Ross Sea on this unforgettable Expedition Voyage on board Scenic Eclipse II. Unlike anything you have experienced before, a journey to this remote and seldom-visited region will leave you breathless. End-of-the-Earth landscapes, gem-like glaciers, immense icebergs and jagged mountain ranges are the setting for some of the planet’s most prolific wildlife displays, whether whales and orcas, seals and penguins or migratory seabirds. This is nature writ large. Over 24 days, you’ll follow in the footsteps of some of the world’s greatest explorers; but unlike those early pioneers, you’ll be enjoying the spine-tingling outlook from the comforts of Scenic Eclipse, in 6-star ultra-luxury. As you're exposed to Antarctica's fascinating unpredictability, know that the expert Polar Discovery Team and Captain will work with the weather and ice conditions to deliver truly remarkable experiences daily.
