Scenic Cruising at the Antarctic Peninsula

Cruise to the edge of the earth through one of the world’s most dramatic seascapes. When you book scenic cruising to the Antarctic Peninsula with Princess, you’re entering a place where glaciers carve the sea, icebergs drift like floating sculptures and wildlife thrives in a white expanse most people will only ever glimpse in photos. Expect rugged scenery and vast horizons, and keep your eyes open for penguin species, seals and whales. The cold is real, but so is the wonder.
