Antarctica – the vast, untouched, white wonderland where humpback whales trail alongside the hull, penguins waddle through the snowy mist, and sparkling icebergs float overhead. Liners such as Viking Cruises offer you the chance to explore the wilderness whilst enjoying all the luxuries of a large ship. Hurtigruten’s ships are smaller and more agile, taking you up close to usually inaccessible, icy locations, hidden wildlife spots and historic sites.
