Antarctica cruises

Antarctica

Antarctica is one of the most pristine and beautiful wildernessesin the world. The majestic icebergs, vast ice shelves, distant forbidding mountains, and endless icy panoramas stretch the imagination like nowhere else. This is one of the few places like the Galapagos where wildlife is still unafraid of man.

Most Antarctic cruises leave from Ushuaia, reached from Buenos Aires. A few depart from Punta Arenas, Chile. We can easily arrange hotel stays and land extensions before or after your cruises

The courage and determination of the Spanish conquistadors may be due to distant descendency from Roman legionnaires. After the Romans conquered Spain, the Roman senate, worried at the thought of the damage Roman legionnaires might do back in Rome, offered them the place of their choice in Spain. They chose Extremadura, the province from which came many of the most famous conquistadors such as Hernan Cortes, the Pizarro brothers, Pedro de Alvarado, Hernando de Soto and Vasco Nunez de Balboa.

Testimonials: Dear Mauricio,

The vacation was wonderful and our stay at the Chateau Carribean was very comfortable. The restaurant serves large portions of delicious food, reasonably priced. We ate the Radisson one evening and were very disappointed in their food. We booked one extra night at the Chateau on our own -- Feb 12/09.
