Gap Adventures, a sustainable adventure travel leader since 1990, offers everything from safaris and family vacations to exotic expeditions “ all in small groups. And the current travel-industry slow down means you have the opportunity to visit some pretty amazing places. Gap is currently offering a very cool-sounding 24-day Grand Voyage to Antarctica that includes the Falkland Islands and South Georgia Island.
Start in Ushuaia, Argentina where the 120-passenger M/S Expedition sails to the Falkland Islands, known for its cavoriting penguins. From there, you get to spend five days on South Georgia”home to Shackleton's grave”before continuing on to Antarctic. Gap's team sails its Zodiak through the frigid waters where travelers may catch glimpses of Humpback and Minke whales along with Crabeater seals and Chinstrap penguins.
And if you decide to book by October 25th (and you have this promo code: GV241), you can get rates starting at $10,394 for triple occupancy. Granted, it's only good for the October 31st departure, but it saves about $5,138 per person. And how many times do you get to go to the Antarctic?
