Discover Antarctica
Thomas Cook has launched 'Undiscovered Antarctica' a group tour package, in association with National Geographic Expeditions. Set to indulge India's growing base of discerning travellers, the company promises an immersive experience of the fifth largest continent in the world, on board the luxurious Ponant Cruise.
The cruise takes travellers through the mythical Drake Passage, while they catch a glimpse of the majestic Humpback Whales and Albatrosses in action. The encounter with wildlife is further enhanced with delightful calls of the Adelie, Chinstrap, and Gentoo penguins, along with seals and seabirds that have their right of way, before any human! While an extensive part of the tour is spent on-board the cruise, travellers also have a chance to spend time steeped in the historic cities of Buenos Aires and Ushuaia, on arrival and departure, respectively.
