Peregrine Adventures

The Weddell Sea & South Georgia 2010/2011 (30 Days)

Our icebreaker expedition will mark the 95th anniversary of the sinking of HMS Endurance. On November 21, 1915, Sir Ernest Shackleton cried, ‘she’s going boys!’ as the ship sank out of sight. We’ll sail the same seas as Shackleton and his crew and raise a glass to the great failure that ultimately became his great success!

Note: Weather and other mitigating factors may result in changes to our itinerary and alteration to certain shore excursions.
Please note this is particularly important with regard to the flying of the helicopters.
