AWE-INSPIRING LANDSCAPES
Stylish, strong and agile, the Magellan Explorer is the world’s first expedition ship to be purposely designed for Antarctica fly-cruises.
Although the Magellan has the capacity to hold 100 people, the number of guests on its air-cruises is limited to just 73 to ensure a more intimate, small ship experience. Guests are accommodated in seven categories of cabins, the majority of which feature private balconies.
All are comfortably appointed with their own seating areas, bathrooms and individually controlled heating systems. When not in your cabin, you’ll likely find yourself in the glass-enclosed observation lounge where you can watch the awe-inspiring landscapes of Antarctica float by.
Other facilities include a gym with panoramic windows, a library stocked with Antarctica literature and a presentation room kitted out with state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment. Meals are served in the stylish dining room, and drinks in the well-stocked bar. When you’re not watching wildlife from the observation lounge or bow of the ship, you’ll have the opportunity to venture out on Zodiac boats for up-close encounters with the region’s enchanting polar wildlife. Other activities include kayaking, hiking and snowshoeing.

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
