Penguins
walking around, Antarctic pigeons pecking at our shoes, killer whales
swimming alongside the boat, elephant seals that do not cater to the
presence of humans and seals dozing a few meters from the boat, while a
world before our eyes is going blank and blue with the purest sound of
nature.
Time stops and only the pure air of a continent that seems to "moon" in the eyes of human breathes. This case experience the heady sensation of sailing in the last frontier on Earth, provoking images of these frozen lands. Aboard the modern MS Fram, the company Hurtigruten offers multiple itineraries through the waters of the Southern Ocean to soak up the wild beauty of its coasts and remember the great polar expeditions.
Crossing the Drake Passage, anchor in the Falkland Islands (Malvinas), meet the old whaling stations of South Georgia, navigate to the South Shetland, discover the work of the scientific stations, explore the islands of the Antarctic Peninsula and beyond The wonderful landscape of ice and snow from Marguerite Bay, or walk among penguins and under the flight of albatrosses are some of the unique experiences that Hurtigruten proposes to discover the Seventh Continent. A journey that from next season 2016/2017 will also be operated by the new expedition ship company, Norway MS Explorer.
1. Begin the journey to the white continent
Buenos Aires , Argentina's capital, and Ushuaia, the northernmost city in the world, are the starting points of these cruises exploration. Once on board, the crew will welcome the passengers, will present the team and report on safety procedures and the schedule for the coming days. As it is not a journey, but a very special one, while browsing, you can participate in conferences on board, where issues concerning the history and wildlife of Antarctica are discussed. The pace of the cruise is marked by the weather, ice and local conditions.

Another surprise in store for the exploration cruise is to navigate through the narrow Antarctic path Erebus and Terror Gulf, the gateway to the Weddel Sea and arrive in rubber boats to places like Half Moon Island, Bay Wilhemina, Cuverville, Yankee Harbour, Andvor Bay, Paradise Bay or Marguerite Bay, majestic white landscape, home to various international scientific foundations and remains of the Heroic Age expeditions where the most famous inhabitant is the emperor penguin, the southernmost colony here.
Another stop on the trip to the white continent is South Georgia, the most fascinating island of the Southern Ocean, where, emulating James Cook, is to explore its spectacular glaciers, vertiginous mountains and wildlife. Headquarters whaling stations as Stromnes and Grytviken, the latter is the largest and oldest of all and where the remains of British explorer Ernst Shackleton, who came to the island after an epic journey of 1,290 kilometers in an open boat. Another attraction will also be sailing the South Orkney Islands, in the Scotia Sea, the oldest continuously inhabited place in Antarctica since its discovery, in the first third of the nineteenth century.
