Basecamp Plancius. New expedition concept in Antarctica and Arctic!

A new concept will be introduced on voyage PLA29, a 11-nights departure to the Weddell Sea and Antarctic Peninsula from 04 till 15 March 2011.
During this trip we will offer a true Basecamp for activities, all activities (field camping, kayaking, glacier walking, snowshoe, hiking, zodiac cruising, shore excursions, photography workshop) packed in one departure and those are included in the ship’s price. The vessel “Plancius” will stay for two or three days at these specific locations to serve our active passengers as a comfortable hub to allow more time as usual for wide ranging activities.
