Traveler understand these pleasures and have once again chosen Seabourn as The World’s Best Small-Ship Cruise Line.

Our 225-suite Seabourn Quest combines the intimate style of Seabourn with the added amenities that a larger ship allows,

a veranda in almost every suite, plus four restaurants and six open bars and lounges. Innovations include a multi-purpose

concierge lounge, Seabourn Square and the luxurious Spa at Seabourn. Because of her size, you’ll find a sociable

ambiance onboard. Enjoy the delightful camaraderie of like-minded guests while exploring the world in search of its very

drake Passage ■ all eyes will be watching fl ocks of fascinating

seabirds flit, soar and swoop to survey your ship. noble

albatrosses glide effortlessly just above the waves, and petrel

squadrons shadow the ship and patter across the surface like

ballerinas en pointe. We’ll be watching for whales here too.

lemaire channel ■ all the glamorous grandeur antarctica can

muster is on show along this narrow, seven-mile cut between

ranks of towering peaks draped in ice and snow.

Paradise Bay ■ The name really says it all. and that is good,

because words otherwise fail to convey the heavenly beauty of

this landscape. The rest of your life may seem a little brighter,

just knowing that such a place exists.

Gerlache Strait ■ a deep, scenic channel between the large

islands of the Palmer archipelago and the Peninsula. Watch for

feeding humpback whales in this area.

Gentoo penguins are the most common species, but adélie and

chinstrap penguins are likely, too, depending on our landing sites.

Pods of orcas are a common sighting in antarctic waters.

South Georgia island ■ abundant green vegetation will greet you

as you arrive by sea. The seas here are rich in nutrients and food,

supporting huge populations of penguins, seals and birds. Whales,

too, are returning after their long decline due to over-hunting.

Puerto montt ■ Trek among ancient trees, zip-line over canyons or

cast for legendary Chilean trout in Chile’s verdant Lake district.

castro ■ Walk the trails of the valdivian Temperate rain Forest, one

of the rarest environments on earth, and learn about the people

of Chiloé, who make their livings from the forest and the sea.

Puerto chacabuco ■ Watch for red deer on an island trek, or drive

the rugged rio Simpson valley to the city of Coyhaique.

Punta arenas ■ visit the Magellanic penguin colonies of Otway

Sound, or venture inland to the majestic granite peaks of Torres

del Paine national Park.

chilean fjords ■ day after day, your ship glides between towering

peaks, some polished and others densely forested. Silvery

waterfalls dance from the heights, glittering like tinsel against

the stone. a massive, wrinkled river of ice descends to a glowing,

blue-white wall at the head of its bay.

Beagle channel/Glacier alley ■ a scenic cruise between hanging

and tidewater glaciers set in soaring granite cliffs.

Port Stanley ■ Stanley’s cathedral, the oldest in the Southern

hemisphere, is marked by an arch made from whale jawbones.

The town’s roofs are painted in different cheerful hues, and the

islanders are proud of their sheep, their penguins, and their

unshakeable British tenacity.
