Step onto the seventh continent. Experience the summit of Birdfall Mountain or explore the entrance of a subterranean ice cave.
YOUR GREATEST DAY
This is the world’s most extraordinary day trip! We switch onto our specialist polar plane and fly 5 hours over the mighty Southern Ocean. Soaring past thousands of icebergs, we cross into 24-hours continuous sunshine and onto the last continent – Antarctica!
We spend 4 hours on the ground, experiencing the deep interior of the continent and some of planet Earth’s most surreal scenery. Surrounded by 3,000ft pinnacles of rock that rise vertically out of the ice, we do a gentle trek to the summit of ‘Birdfall’ mountain, followed by a journey to a subterranean cave filled with ice crystals. To finish, we have a glass of champagne in the world’s most southerly ice bar!
For those that wish to experience more, there is the option to stay a further 4 days in Antarctica.
WHY WE LOVE IT
Even now, so few humans get to step onto the actual continent of Antarctica. The name symbolises true, untamed wilderness and a chance for humans to reconnect with nature and to truly appreciate the vastness of our planet.
The Seventh Continent is a fitting finale to our World tour. Whilst we’re not allowed to remove anything from Antarctica, it will give you memories that will remain for the rest of your life.
EXPERIENCES
Wolfs Fang, Antarctica
Welcome to Queen Maud Land and your place on the Seventh Continent! During the 5-hour flight to Wolf’s Fang Runway, Antarctica, the African night turns to day as we soar over thousands of icebergs and pass into 24 hours of continuous sunshine.
On arrival you will spend around 3 hours on ice. You will be taken on a short drive from Wolf’s Fang Runway to explore an ice cave followed by a gentle hike up a nearby nunatak where you will experience an unforgettable view of the blue ice glacier and surrounding mountainscape. Indulge in a champagne picnic and for those more daring, abseil down an ice cliff amongst views unlike anywhere on Earth.
The Seventh Continent is a fitting finale to our World tour. Whilst we are not allowed to remove anything from Antarctica, it will give you memories that will remain for the rest of your life. There is a longer 5 day extension on offer (space limited).

ECHO
Inspired by astronauts and used by explorers, Echo Base is utterly unique. Each Sky Pod is equipped with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows which connects you to the lunar landscape outside.
Like a setting from a spaceship, the lounge is called the ‘decompression chamber’ as it’s the perfect place to relax.
A stunning Anthony James sculpture dominates the cocktail bar where we serve drinks with 10,000 year old ice.
