Lindblad describes this sailing as:
Extraordinary and unusual, an expedition from Cape to Cape has been the challenge and dream of many sailors and explorers. Colorful milestones line our route on this epic voyage from Cape Horn, at the tip of South America, to the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. Explore the wildlife and icebergs of Antarctica and South Georgia, with its vast king penguins colonies. Visit the remote outpost of Tristan da Cunha — one of the least accessible, least visited and most dreamed-of places anywhere — before ending in lively Cape Town. You explore the Antarctic in prime season, mid-February, accompanied by the best Ice Team on earth. We always change course for wildlife sightings — and our Zodiacs, kayaks and an Undersea Specialist help us understand these remote lands.
ASPEN INSTITUTE SEMINAR. Lindblad has arranged for The Aspen Institute to conduct a customized on-board seminar to explore the ideas and issues that impact this region of the world. For almost 60 years, The Aspen Institute has brought together diverse groups of people to learn from each other and from the great thinkers of the world. In an environment conducive to reflecting and dialogue, guests may participate (if they wish) to wrestle with fundamental questions about the nature of life, society and the environment.
