Penguin in Antarctica

The best time to visit Antarctica

Nov 05, 2024

For spectacular scenery, amazing wildlife, extraordinary history and a glimpse of just how special our planet is, an Antarctica Expedition cruise should be right at the top of your list. Getting there is time consuming but it is worth every moment, every penny, and so much more. For a few months each year, during the southern hemisphere's summer months, this fascinating wilderness becomes accessible to polar expedition ships. The days grow lighter and longer, the temperature rises, the sea ice retreats and Antarctica comes alive with an astonishing abundance of wildlife. We're often asked about the best time to cross the Drake Passage, the notoriously bumpy stretch of water that lies between South America and the Antarctic Peninsula, but in truth you can experience bad weather and rough seas at any time of year. You're better off basing your decision on the wildlife you want to see, the area of Antarctica you want to visit and how much money you want to spend. To help you in this task, here is our month-by-month guide to visiting Antarctica by expedition cruise.

Top 10 Things to See and Do on Zakynthos

Oct 25, 2024

Zakynthos offers a distinct charm compared to the more traditional Cycladic islands like Santorini and Mykonos. While those islands are renowned for their iconic architecture and bustling nightlife, Zakynthos boasts a more laid-back atmosphere, stunning natural beauty, and a rich history. Its diverse landscapes, including lush green hills, secluded beaches, and dramatic cliffs, make it a popular destination for nature lovers and those seeking a more authentic Greek experience. We have gathered a list of some of the must-sees and must-dos of this gorgeous Ionian Island.
