UNWILD EXCLUSIVE
Antarctica’s Great Whale Migration
Polar Expeditions
Wildlife Holidays
Witness Antarctica’s spectacular whale migration season, when humpback and minke whales, along with orcas, gather in krill-rich waters. With the expedition timed for this remarkable natural phenomenon, every encounter offers a chance to see these magnificent creatures in their element.
Experience the White Continent beyond traditional exploration with optional activities such as kayaking, snorkelling and snowshoeing. Each offers a different perspective on Antarctica, subject to weather, safety conditions and operational feasibility.
Travel with the dedicated UnWild Planet team, bringing firsthand experience from multiple Antarctic expeditions, in-depth destination knowledge and personalised support before and throughout your journey. From preparation on land to guidance on the ice, the team helps you make the most of every moment.
Travel round-trip from Buenos Aires, with a hotel night in the city and domestic flights between Buenos Aires and Ushuaia included. Enjoy onboard meals, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, expedition activities, laundry and ship amenities, with Indian chefs serving thoughtfully prepared Indian cuisine alongside international favourites. You only need to budget separately for gratuities.
March is one of the most rewarding times to visit Antarctica. As sea ice retreats and nutrient-rich waters fuel vast krill blooms, the Southern Ocean comes alive with wildlife. Humpback whales breach across sheltered bays, minke whales surface alongside icebergs, and orcas patrol the channels in search of prey. Combined with penguin colonies, dramatic glaciers and long daylight hours, this voyage offers an extraordinary opportunity to experience Antarctica at its most vibrant and dynamic.
March is widely considered one of the best months for whale sightings in Antarctica, especially for humpback and minke whales feeding on prey.
Arrive in Buenos Aires and settle into your pre-expedition hotel.
