Embark on an awe-inspiring journey to the last true wilderness on Earth — Antarctica. Let us take you from the southernmost reaches of South America to the frozen realm of towering icebergs, vast glaciers, and otherworldly silence.
Sail through legendary passages, visit rarely touched islands, and set foot on the White Continent, where every moment is a testament to nature’s raw and pristine power. Watch penguins waddle along icy shores, whales breach in icy waters, and seals rest atop ancient ice floes.
Join expert polar guides as you explore dramatic landscapes, cruise through ice-laden fjords by Zodiac, and stand beneath the midnight sun where time feels suspended. Whether reaching the Antarctic Peninsula or venturing as far south as the Polar Circle, every expedition is a once-in-a-lifetime immersion into Earth’s most remote and magical frontier.
This is more than travel — it’s a soulful encounter with the planet’s purest wilderness.
One of the most travelled individuals on the earth, Sujoy Kumar Mitra has visited the entirety of the 198 countries, which include all 193 UN member states along with the Vatican City, Taiwan, Kosovo, Palestine, and Antarctica! A true globetrotter and adventurer at heart, Sujoy has held 14 Guinness World Records because of his unparalleled desire to explore: the fastest journey across all 7 continents (now broken), made in 73 hours and 5 minutes, and setting the record time of 5 days and 17 hours to visit all 7 Wonders of the World. Yet, Sujoy’s travel experience is about more than just setting records; it is all about his curiosity about cultures, people, and the great variety our planet offers.
