Itinerary

Venture to the remote reaches of the Antarctic on the "Ross Sea Odyssey - Douglas Mawson," a 25-day relaxed polar expedition starting and ending in Dunedin. Journey through the subantarctic, spotting yellow-eyed penguins and nesting albatross, before crossing the Antarctic Circle into the Ross Sea’s icy expanse. Witness emperor and Adélie penguins, orcas, and Weddell seals amid colossal ice shelves. Trace the footsteps of Heroic Age explorers with visits to remarkably preserved expedition huts along the Victoria Land Coast. With luxurious accommodations, all meals, and expert-led excursions, the tour’s unique allure is access to the rarely visited Ross Sea and its rich polar history—offering a deep dive into one of the world’s last true frontiers.
