Ocean Endeavour Antarctic Cruises

January 2024

Natalya Getman was very supportive and quickly responding to each my questions. The trip to Antarctica was one of the best experiences. It was very well organized - there was time for learning a lot about Antarctica, for explore Antarctica with zodiacs and walking on the land, for nice conversations with interesting people, for relax and enjoy the moments there. I strongly recommend this trip to each adventureous.

KHIEM DINH H

It’s fantastic trip. Thanks Natalya who helps to book and explain all to us. Give more confidence and comfortable to pay a big amount of Money for tickets.

Greg Mortimer Antarctica and Arctic Cruises

It was an excellent trip indeed and very well organized. From the moment Ms Natalya Getman contacted me until I left the ship for the cruise, I felt a 5-star service had been provided for me. She helped me with all the paperwork and answered all my queries; friendly and professional. The Ocean Explorer is a destination all on its own. The incredible adventure to the North Pole on an amazingly powerful icebreaker was of course a once in a lifetime experience. Watching the ship cutting through the ice was truly amazing. Witnessing 8 lovely polar bears, several groups of walruses, and thousands of guillemots on the expedition were just awesome. Various zodiac explorations also provided me with a lifetime experience of witnessing the beautiful icebergs and glaciers' calving. Of course, the staff was exceptional and value-added; knowledgeable, and helpful. It was truly a stunning trip and fully recommended.

I have never been somewhere so raw and untouched. It felt like a different planet and was so beautiful its hard to use words to describe this experience. Because of the lack of wifi it was the first time I have felt fully present in so long. They also protect nature and make sure that you always respect the land. It was a trip of a lifetime.

Ocean Victory Antarctica Cruises

We cruised to Antarctica on board Ocean Victory at the end of January 2023. The cruise was a fantastic experience. The landscape of Antarctica are mind-blowing, literally out of this world. We had a variety of weather, but even bad weather did not deter from enjoying the experience. We did see all the expected fauna, though not in large quantities ( for this I understand it is better to go to South Georgia). But it is really the landscape that makes this worth it. The ship was great, very luxurious and comfortable, service was excellent. The expedition team were outstanding, they really made a big difference. Thanks to Polartours for proposing the cruise, getting us a good price, and generally dealing with everything in a friendly and professional manner !

Ocean Nova Antarctica Cruises

Eine wunderbare Erfahrung, die ich vielleicht einmal in meinem Leben machen werde. Es war unsere Flitterwochenreise. Um genau zu sein, zu dieser Zeit war ich an Bord, das Wetter war sehr schlecht, so dass ich seekrank wurde und ich war ziemlich begrenzt Aktivitäten zur Verfügung gestellt. Trotz dieser Situation war das Personal sehr nett und das Essen war gut. Außerdem erreichte ich die Antarktis mit etwas mehr Verspätung als ich erwartet hatte. Es war ein unvergessliches Erlebnis für uns! Danke😘

Immerse Yourself in Antarctica

 Save up to $4700 on 24-25 voyages  View special voyages and promotions

We are Polar Latitudes. And you might say, we have a longstanding obsession with Antarctica. It’s been our only destination for a dozen years, and our experience and understanding of this elusive continent is second to none. As such, we pride ourselves in delivering the most immersive and unforgettable experience in these waters.

We believe the greatest amenity any ship can offer in this ethereal part of the world is Antarctica itself. It’s why our excursions are longer, our ability to improvise greater, and our search for what we call “magic moments,” endless. Ours is a more personalized small ship luxury experience, with an emphasis on safety, spontaneity, and fun. And we embrace our responsibility to care for this fragile part of the world.

A Singular Devotion to Antarctica

Polar Latitudes isn’t the new ship on the block. We’re founder-owned and still founder-operated. Together our senior management team has nearly a century’s worth of experience in Antarctic waters, and we launched Polar Latitudes with a continued commitment to that incredible part of the world – a commitment that will be apparent the minute you step onboard. You might even be greeted by John McKeon, seen here. He’s President and one of our founders, and he still sails with us multiple times each season, to drive zodiacs, catch up with team members, and to share experiences with – and learn from – our passengers.

It’s Ok to Jump Ahead

Want to get right into the details? Here are a few good places to start.

Whether a key factor is timing, cost, or duration, every trip will emphasize getting you intimately engaged with the continent. And worth noting, this season we’re partnering with Oceanites on seven penguin counting voyages.

Here are the key players who will ensure that you have the experience of a lifetime onboard and off. As for their own Antarctic experience, it’s second to none.

Our Activities

From photography to kayaking to Citizen Science to sleeping under the stars, no passion need go unfed on a Polar Latitudes voyage.

All Penguins are Created Equal – All Voyages are Not

Any number of ships can take you to Antarctica. And the incredible landscape, the wildlife, and Antarctica’s ethereal light – it will all be waiting for you regardless. Yes, even those adorable penguins! But how you experience this mysterious place and how deeply it touches you will depend in large part on who you travel with.

Consider traveling with Polar Latitudes if:

You Want the Most Immersive Antarctic Adventure

As luxurious as our ship is, our primary focus will always be on providing the “most Antarctica” on every day of this once-in-a-lifetime journey. Our off-ship excursions average 3 ½ hours, twice daily; our unique “silent Zodiac cruise” is said to be life-changing; and should the finicky Antarctic weather turn south, our expedition team’s extraordinary ability to counter with a “Plan B” means you’ll likely never miss a chance to explore.

See All Itineraries

You’d Rather Be With a Company That’s “Been There, Pioneered That”

Our experience and environmental leadership in these waters are second to none. We were the first to bring a Citizen Science program onboard every voyage; the first to join and support the Polar Science Collective; the first to adopt a rigorous third-party training and accreditation system for our entire team; and the first to create a position of onboard passenger service manager – all to ensure each voyager has the safest and most experiential journey possible.

More on Citizen Science

You Prefer a Small Ship, More Personalized Experience

Maybe you’re one of those people who wants to feel part of a smaller, more like-minded team; who doesn’t like to wait, but does like a more personalized, stress-free adventure; and who likes the idea of being on a first-name basis with your expedition team. These are just some of the things that only a small ship experience can deliver.

Explore Our Ship

You Want the Best-Performing Team Around You

With more ships entering Antarctic waters, staffing them has become a challenge for many, but not for Polar Latitudes. Our Expedition Team averages 12 years’ experience, and most of them return to us year after year. Their experience and ability to work as a team is a big reason why we can take advantage of every opportunity Antarctica presents us, and seamlessly improvise whenever necessary.

Meet the Team

And Yeah, You’d Like It to Be Fun, Too

Our standards of excellence and performance are the highest in the industry. But we also place great value on the intangibles. We’re down-to-earth and fun to be around. You’ll come to know us by name, and we’ll undoubtedly share a few laughs (and maybe even a hug or two). People often say we make them feel like family. That’s something we’ve very proud of, since most of us really like our families.

Responsible Travel

We embrace our responsibility to do everything we can to care for this place that we cherish so much, and to support others who feel the same way. Our newest ship, Seaventure, reduces fuel consumption per passenger by 20%. And through more than a dozen local and environmental partnerships, including our pioneering Citizen Science program, we look for every opportunity to be a force for global good, especially in our beloved Antarctica.
