An Antarctica honeymoon may, perhaps, not be the first destination you would think of when considering your trip of a lifetime but there’s really no reason why you shouldn’t! With luxury cruise boats, fantastic scenery and breathtaking wildlife; it has all the ingredients for a truly unforgettable experience and can easily be combined with a stay in Chile or Argentina.
The nature and wildlife of Antarctica is, for the majority of people, the driving factor behind choosing to do a cruise to this southernmost continent. The opportunity to see great numbers of penguins, seabirds, seals and whales close-up, during nesting and breeding season, is the main attraction for coming here. While the Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula are included in most cruise itineraries, wildlife enthusiasts should also consider South Georgia and the Falklands for their abundant seabird and penguin colonies.
A cruise to Antarctica may not be your first thought for a family holiday, but as more and more families look at travelling to Chile and Argentina over the Christmas holidays, it’s worth thinking about incorporating an Antarctica cruise into your trip. With daily activities, incredible wildlife viewing, great facilities and wifi on-board, there’s definitely enough to keep both the kids and parents happy.
