    HIGHLIGHTS

    Fabulous Patagonian landscapes
    Your expedition cruise starts in Valparaíso and takes you southward along Chile’s scenic Pacific coast. We’ll sail through the fabled waters of Patagonia, and to charming and secluded villages and towns like Castro and Puerto Edén, before continuing through the natural maze of the breathtaking Chilean fjords to the southernmost tip of South America. Sea and weather conditions can be unpredictable from here on out. That’s why we don’t have a fixed itinerary. If wind, weather, or ice make a planned landing tricky, we adapt our expedition to give you the best experience at that time. We may attempt a landing at Cape Horn, winds and waves permitting. If not, we’ll begin our crossing of the Drake Passage.

    The White Continent
    Bask in seven days celebrating late austral spring in Antarctica. Watch lovesick penguins splashing and courting to attract their mates. Gaze at an infinite horizon of ice and snow, and admire the icebergs in pristine condition. You may just fall in love with this frozen yet uniquely beautiful world when you join the Expedition Team in lectures, landings, and ice-cruises, as well as optional activities like kayaking and maybe even camping.

    MS Fram (Expedition, 200-guests)

    MS Fram is purpose built as an expedition vessel with a higher ice-class, chart drawing tools, ship depth sounding database, extractable forward sounding sonar, iceberg search lights, autonomous tracking system, oversized oil retention system for self-sufficiency, and a full 'expedition tools-deck' equivalent to a car-deck that holds 25 vehicles. We believe that as an explorer you need an 'expedition base-camp' that is comfortable - something that combines 'all oceans capabilities' with safety, flexibility and environmental friendliness. That's Fram - simply the best expedition ship imaginable.
