Antarctica Expedition | Luxury Cruise | Atlas Ocean Voyages | WATCH TO PREPARE FOR YOUR TRIP

Hello, everyone . Welcome back to another video of Mike on the Move. Antarctica is one of the most beautiful and least visited places on Earth. In this video, I will share my experience visiting the white continent onboard Altas Ocean Voyages' newest ship - the World Traveller!
This is a 9-day itinerary from Ushuaia on December 28th, 2023. If you are planning to take a trip to Antarctica or are just curious about a trip to the end of the world - this video is for you!
Let me know if you have any questions or comments. Enjoy!

    Mike, I just watched this for the second time so I could show my husband. I LOVE what you've done here. This covers all the practical stuff and helps us visualize each aspect of the trip . So helpful! Your honesty is refreshing. You film gray days and sunny days (unlike promotional videos from cruise lines). I'll be watching this repeatedly. Perfect video! Question: How challenging is it to board those kayaks from a ship? I find it tricky enough from dry land!

    Sailed with them on the Navigator’s maiden voyage to Antarctica in 2021. I’m sure all the kinks are worked out by now. The best was the round trip from Orlando on an A330 to Ushuaia. Not more than 150 on a plane that can carry three hundred. Sailed on Atlas several times since then. Member of the yacht club!

    Hi Mike, thanks for sharing your wonderful experience. Can we fly drones in Antarctica?

  • @MIKEONTHEMOVE

    @MIKEONTHEMOVE

    5 ай бұрын

    Thanks! I am glad you enjoyed the video and hope you found it helpful. Regarding flying drones, according to the IAATO (international Antarctic Association of Tour Operators), flying recreational drones in the Antarctic is not allowed unless with a permit. This policy was enforced throughout my time on the ship. Being unable to fly my drone in Antarctica was a missed opportunity for me, too, but still an incredible experience nonetheless. I haven't researched the process of obtaining a permit, but it is a task for me to look into.

My hubby and I are tentatively booked on an 11 night trip in Jan 9th for about $23k...for a horizon cabin. Do you get any discounts for future cruises after your first one? Any codes they tell you to share with others? 😉. If you're coming back in 2025, come join us on this longer 11 night cruise 😊
