Meet some of our Arctic and Scotland Discovery Team experts

Baldur Thorvaldsson

Polar Guide and Marine Mammal Lecturer

There’s a remarkable power to sustainable and ethical wildlife tourism. It really encourages people to appreciate the world around them in a fully-immersive way. As a marine naturalist and polar guide with an MSc degree in Ecotourism, Baldur has 50 polar voyages to date. Each has really shown me this power firsthand. He has guided hundreds of whale-watching tours in my home country of Iceland, Norway and the Azores, and observed over 50 species of marine mammals. Much like the Scenic guests, for Baldur working as Discovery Leader really means no two days are the same. Every day is a new discovery, that’s the joys of watching wildlife in their natural habitat. You just never know what you will see that day.

Jonathan Fuhrmann

Geology, Glaciology, Lecturer, Assistant Discovery Leader

Jonathan has worked on expedition cruise ships on all seven continents since 2015, and in that time his love for the Polar regions and great mountain ranges has deepened beyond belief. Wanting to know more about the earth hadn’t always been his journey. Jonathan initially started an Economic degree at the University of Cambridge. But soon switched focus to Geography, completing a MPhil in Glaciology at the Scott Polar Research Institute.

Today, Jonathan enjoys speaking on subjects ranging from glaciology and geology to astronomy, volcanology and photography. He hope to give Scenic guests a deeper understanding of the beautiful wild landscape, and its importance to our planet.

Pepe Rojas Ornithologist & Lecturer

As an ornithologist and field researcher, Pepe has dedicated most of his life to nature and conservation. Leading many expeditions on land and sea, from the Polar regions to the Amazon rainforest, he takes joy in leading guests into the lesser explored parts of the world. Originally from Peru, my love for the Arctic was instantaneous. Pepe fell in love with its unrivalled beauty, created by the landscape and light. The native wildlife in this limitless ice scape is truly outstanding. He is an avid bird watcher, growing up watching and listening to West Peruvian Doves, Long-tailed Mockingbirds, and Rufous-collared Sparrows on the Pacific coast of his hometown in Lima. It is something that still bewitches him today, with the iconic spoonbilled sandpipers, a bird that breeds only in the Polar regions.

Dr. Terence Christian Historian, Archaeologist, Discovery Leader

Terence’s first adventure abroad took him across Scandinavia. From that moment, he was bitten by the travel bug and have since explored the majority of the world’s continents and oceans as an expedition leader, expedition guide, Zodiac driver and even as a bear guard. As a conflict archaeologist and military historian, he examines the remnants of the past. His most extensive archaeological research focuses on the history and archaeology of the 18th- to early 21st-century. With a particular interest in global conflict, historic preservation, aviation archaeology, experimental archaeology, and historic ballistics. Getting beneath the surface of a region is like stepping back in time, and truly knowing its journey to today.

Scenic Eclipse A Day in the Arctic

Awaken

It’s early as you step from your cosy Scenic Slumber Bed to your suite’s floor to ceiling window. Morning sunlight dances across rock walls. Whether in the Norwegian fjords or those of East Greenland, your butler serves a coffee of your choice as you step out onto your private verandah to breathe in pure wilderness. In the Arctic, every day brings new wonder.

Morning

After a delicious breakfast, put on your complimentary polar parka and proceed to the Discovery Centre where your insulated boots await. Join your group at the Marina entrance and board a Zodiac for your morning excursion. With only 200 guests in Polar regions, disembarkation goes smoothly and enables multiple landings each day.

Morning exploration

Excitement builds as you pull away from Scenic Eclipse. Its size and unique design allows you to explore places that larger vessels can’t reach. What will it be today? Perhaps a Zodiac cruise witnessing tundra landscapes and wildlife in Svalbard. Or learn about the important Bird Area and a key Migratory Bird Terrestrial Habitat site on Akpatok Island’s, Greenland.

Late morning

No two excursions are alike. Your Discovery Leader are alert to changing opportunities –from beluga whales suddenly appearing, to the ‘crack!’ of glacier fronts calving – flexible enough to get you there.

Monitoring weather, sea state and ice, they will safely guide and share their insights into the region’s environment. Given the range of on-board expertise, our Discovery Team can tailor each excursion to your interests.

The Arctic offers a rare opportunity to escape into the immensity of this vast wilderness, from the majestic fjords of Norway and the Svalbard Archipelago to Greenland’s glaciers and the geology of Iceland.

Polar bear, Svalbard Archipelago

Choose from up to 10 dining experiences

Afternoon exploration

Scenic Eclipse’s limited guest number means multiple landings a day. From historic hunters’ huts and reindeer in Svalbard, to song and dance by indigenous people across the Arctic, and the Aberdeenshire puffins porpoises and minke whales in Scotland, your Discovery Team will interpret what unfolds before your eyes.

Lunch

By midday, return to your ultraluxury Discovery Yacht. Choose lunch at one of several dining experiences, from casual Azure Bar & Cafe to Yacht Club’s grill, to contemporary fine dining. While you eat, rest and admire the views, Scenic Eclipse repositions to a new location for another excursion, holding its place using its GPS Dynamic Positioning system, without dropping anchor onto sensitive seabeds.

Afternoon rejuvenation

Back on Scenic Eclipse, visit our expansive 550m2 Senses Spa for the pure indulgence of rejuvenating treatments, soak in our Vitality Spa or outdoor pool, or stretch tightening muscles in our POWER: gym, or PURE: Yoga and Pilates studio. Join your Discovery Leader for an illustrated recap of the day and learn what is planned for the next.

After-dinner

What better way to finish the day than with a nightcap in one of our all-inclusive nine bars and lounges, as the Midnight Sun highlights wildflower patches in tundra meadows nearby.

Zodiac excursions, Svalbard

The Arctic is an ocean surrounded by continents – and you can explore them all on our ultra-luxury Discovery Yacht Scenic Eclipse.

The European continent, enjoys Norwegian fjords and photogenic fishing villages; Svalbard’s colourful tundra, reindeer, polar bears and walrus; Greenland and the High Canadian Arctic’s spectacular icebergs and glacier-carved valleys, musk ox and paleoEskimo camps. Discover Iceland and Scotland’s awe inspiring waterfalls, Viking heritage, evocative volcanic landscapes and rejuvenating thermal pools.

Explore to the breathtaking scale of the High Canadian Arctic in Lady Franklin Island with some of the oldest seacliffs, enjoy walrus and polar bears on Monumental Island and explore Aptapok Islands birdlife. Discover the wild-flower tundras and wildlife as you enjoy northwest Greenland and Baffin Island.

Scattered along the rugged coastline, beautiful, fiercely loved and utterly unique are the islands of Scotland, which will take your breath away. Great Britain’s most northernly islands, the Shetlands are an intriguing mix of Norwegian and Scottish history. Influenced by a Viking past, containing some of the most well-preserved archaeological sites in Scotland. Some difference to be aware of between Antarctica and the Arctic are the polar bears. Marine mammals spend most of their lives on the Arctic Ocean sea ice, hunting seals, walrus, even whales in the frigid waters and come ashore to give birth to their cubs.

As well as Arctic destinations, here are some seasonal highlights to help you decide which voyage to choose:

Early Summer

June – Early July

On seabird cliffs of Norway and Scotland, puffins, gannets and guillemots feed chicks. Humpback whales follow the Gulf Stream north along the Norwegian coast, while fast ice breaks out of the deeper fjords. Snow free areas across the Arctic attract migratory birds, and polar bears and cubs emerge from dens.

The Arctic region experiences almost 24 hours of sunlight. Explore the diverse Arctic wildlife, such as lemmings and polar bears, with the ringed seal being the lone year-round marine inhabitant.

Midsummer

Mid July – Early August

Millions of migratory birds fill flyways in Europe and North America. Seabird cliffs are noisy with growing chicks. Algal blooms attract ringed, bearded and harp seals. On Wrangel Island and across Canada, polar bears teach cubs to hunt. Arctic wildflowers bloom and walrus crowd ice floes as polar bears stalk seals in pack ice around Svalbard. Long days make Iceland an ideal destination for photographers.

Late Summer

Mid August – Early September

Humpback, bowhead, grey and beluga whales feed off continental coasts before migrating south. Arctic foxes scour the base of seabird cliffs in search for late-season chicks. Warm daytime temperatures encourage spectacular calving of glacier fronts, tundra walks turn up ripe berries and sunsets begin to light up the evening sky

Scotland is perfect for those who love keeping an eye out for wildlife. With its fabulous big five including the red squirrel, red deer, golden eagle, otter and harbour seal. Scotland’s wildlife can be spotted in the sky, the harbours, the beach, the mountains and even the road.

Discover Svalbard

Halfway between Norway and the North Pole lies an enchanting archipelago swept by warm Gulf Stream waters along its west coast; frigid pack ice from the north, polar desert winds from the east and lush sea breezes from the south.

Svalbard is so remote not even Paleo-Eskimos reached there and despite later periods of shorebased whaling, hunting, trapping, mining and scientific expeditions much remains a pristine wilderness. It’s ours to explore in ultra-luxury from, Scenic Eclipse.

Mountainous Spitsbergen, the largest island in the archipelago, dominates Svalbard’s northwest corner. At its heart is Longyearbyen, Svalbard’s largest, and the world’s most northerly settlement. As perpetual summer daylight bathes surrounding mountainsides, admire Longyearbyen’s colourful houses and fascinating museums before setting sail down Isfjorden.

Due to the extraordinary nature of Svalbard, especially fast-changing weather and ice conditions, our Expedition Voyage itinerary is flexible, with the Captain and Discovery Leader working together to give you experiences that exceed your expectations. Here are some of the highlights that await you. Enjoy breathtaking scenery from your suite’s private verandah as Scenic Eclipse navigates spectacular waterways like Magdalena Fjord, and join Discovery Team specialists on Zodiac cruises along calving ice fronts of the Waggonway or 14th July glaciers. As you slowly move amongst the brash ice and bergy bits, watch for polar bears on shore and reindeer grazing on tundra hills.

In Kingsfjorden, we may visit Ny Ålesund, a mining town turned polar research centre, or farther north, Amsterdamoya, where our Discovery Team historian leads us to Smeerenburg (literally Blubber Town) the remains of a 17th Century Dutch whaling settlement, where walrus often haul out. Just across the channel are the ruins from the Swedish balloon expedition base camp, where Andrée and his two co-pilots launched, never to be seen alive again. Today delightful harbour seals remain to entertain.

North of Spitsbergen, Scenic Eclipse aims for the Arctic pack ice, an ethereal world where walrus bob on ice floes, polar bears hunt seals and beluga whales rise in open leads. Scenic Eclipse, is built to Polar Class 6 standards and its state-of-the-art

A Polar bear and cubs, Svalbard

B Arctic fox

C Beluga whales, Spitsbergen

D Reindeer grazing on tundra hills

design allows us to push deeper into the pack thus improving our chance to see more and reach places other ships can’t, including beyond 80 degrees latitude to Seven Islands, Svalbard’s northernmost island group.

If ice conditions allow, thrill to a passage down Hinlopen Strait, which separates Spitsbergen from Nordaustlandet, an ice-capped polar desert where female polar bears and cubs prowl. Vegetation is sparse, but fossils are many and walrus frequently sleep on its cobbled beaches. Across the way are soaring birdcliffs that literally buzz with some 200,000 nests of Brünichs guillemots, kittiwakes and gulls. Carry binoculars to spy Arctic foxes scavenging for fallen eggs and chicks along the base.

On Svalbard’s south side, visit Sundneset, a fertile plain covered in green mosses and delicate flowers including the yellow marsh saxifrage, moss campion, bell-heather and elegant sunburst lichen. Round South Cape, the most southerly point of Spitsbergen, to explore the deep fjords of Hornsund and Bellsund, where reindeer graze on tundra near preserved trappers huts, puffins join guillemots on bird cliffs, and beluga whales rise like ghosts beneath ice fronts. Focus on the wonders of Svalbard in our Arctic in Depth voyage or combine it with explorations of other destinations like the Norwegian Fjords, Greenland’s stunning east coast, and the thermal wonders of Iceland. No matter which Arctic cruise you choose, travelling in 6-star ultra-luxury on the World’s First Discovery Yacht, accompanied by up to 20 Discovery Team specialists keen to share their expertise and enthusiasm for special places, will leave you with indelible memories to treasure.

Discover Greenland & Canadian High Arctic

Enter a world of breathtaking grandeur, where smooth rock walls rise two kilometers to monolithic spires, colossal glaciers calve aquamarine icebergs 100 metres high, vast tundra feeds musk oxen and reindeer, and waterways abound with whales and seals.

Greenland, the world’s largest island, is draped in the planet’s second largest ice sheet and cut by the greatest fjords on Earth. From Northeast Greenland National Park (the world’s largest) situated south along the east coast, fjord systems wind up to 350 magical, often ice-laden kilometres from the coast.

There are over 35,000 islands in this remote Canadian Arctic Archipelago, with Baffin Island being the fifth-largest island in the world. Baffin Island, offers incredible scenery; mountains, fjords, glaciers and pack ice. Making up a wilderness area that provides home for rare wildlife including: muskox, walrus, beluga whales and the polar bear. Scenic Eclipse, The World’s First Discovery Yachts are designed and built to Polar Class 6 standards, making it easy to explore these remote regions. Operating in places other ships can’t reach, like Kaiser Franz Josef Fjord early in the season. This red-rock wonderland of wind and wave sculpted icebergs, is a secret passage to Kong Oskar

Fjord, where your expert Discovery Team will lead walks across blossoming tundra to encounter musk oxen families and pure white Arctic hare.

Learn what life was like for nomadic Paleo Eskimos, who inhabited the region for more than 4,000 years. Visit Inuit hunting camps abandoned two centuries ago, so wellpreserved that circular stone tent rings, winter houses, bear-proof meat caches and grave sites can still be seen. Discover the riveting exploration history of the land that never melts as you explore the Canadian Arctic, home to a wealth of wildlife and rugged, pristine landscapes.

Listen as your Discovery Team historian regales you with tales of polar exploration, from Fridtjof Nansen and Otto Sverdrup’s ski crossing of the Greenland Ice Sheet in 1888, to their drift across the Arctic Ocean on board the specially designed Fram. Sverdrup’s Fram II scientific expedition, which spent four years exploring north Greenland, is an epic tale.

Delight in a warm welcome to communities like remote Ittoqqortoormiit, where Inuit hunters, trappers and fishermen keep traditions alive; Narsaq, on Tunulliarfik Fjord, where Norseman Erik the Red first settled and spend time on deck relishing the flight of fulmars as they accompany our passage.

Watch for the beautifully patterned great northern diver, the oldest bird species in the world, or its relative, the red-throated diver. Greenland is host to more than 60 species of birds, so ‘twitchers’ will be well-rewarded.

Transit Prins Christianssund, a narrow channel between Cape Farewell and mainland are, more than 100 km long and discover why Scenic Eclipse is truly a ultraluxury discovery voyage. Relax on your private verandah with in-suite binoculars, admiring magnificent granite walls and exquisite icebergs passing by. Or visit the Observation Lounge where Swarovski telescopes offer views of minke whales, or ringed and bearded seals hauled out on floating ice.

Greenland’s west coast is swept by warm Gulf Stream currents, offering more temperate climate and more populous towns including the capital, Nuuk. Join the Discovery Team on a guided tour through picturesque Old Harbour, find mummies and Inuit skin boats in the Greenland National Museum and local art in the Nuuk Art Museum and Katuaq cultural centre.

From Ilulissat, a small village on Disko Bay, listen to the growl and thunder of massive icebergs calved from Sermeq Kujalleq, the world’s fastest and most active glacier, to fill Ilulissat Icefjord with grinding ice castles. Gain a close view of Greenlands Ice Sheet on an excursion from Kangerlussuaq, where the U.S. established several airbases during World War II. Your Discovery Team historian tells how the two countries forged stronger ties during the Cold War, continue today. Whether approaching Greenland from Svalbard or Iceland on an Arctic Islands or Exploring the High Arctic voyage, memories of wild Greenland and the High Canadian Arctic will remain with you forever.

Discover Iceland & Scotland

Discover Iceland, the land of fire and ice. Situated between Norway and Greenland lies an enchanted isle, where sparkling glaciers and powerful waterfalls sculpt a landscape laid down by falling ash and molten lava. Where warm Gulf Stream waters feed millions of seabirds and whales migrate in their thousands. Enjoy Scotland where you will witness glorious mountains and remnant stones, bagpipes and whiskey.

Discover a unique culture peopled by Viking descendants, their Gaelic slaves and interloping pirates, who created the world’s longest continuous legislature. Delight in art and stage performances influenced by ancient Icelandic Sagas, and film locations that promote both the quirky and Nordicnoir.

Enjoy a small ship cruising experience on board Scenic Eclipse, your 6-star ultra-luxury Discovery Yacht. It’s up to 20-member Discovery Team keen to guide you to Iceland’s most memorable experiences, whether it’s stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking up mirror-smooth fjords to colourful fishing villages, photographing puffin parents returning with beaks neatly-lined with sand eels, or coming face-to-face with cheeky Arctic foxes.

Have the privilege of traversing one of the youngest geological landscapes on Earth as you hike across lava fields, walk barefoot along tranquil black sand beaches, admire bizarre lava formations or explore deep into lava tubes. Your Discovery Team geologists will share their enthusiasm for the actively spreading Mid-Atlantic Ridge, the powerful conveyor belt of volcanic activity that has raised Iceland above sea level.

Listen to the roar of Deildartunguhver, Europe’s most powerful hot springs, as its scalding waters are piped to houses in Borgarnes and Akranes up to 65 km away; or watch Strokkur, the country’s most famous geyser, shoot vast jets of boiling water 40 metres in the sky and you’ll understand why Jules Verne chose the glacier-capped Snæfellsjökull stratovolcano as the entry point to the Earth’s core in his classic novel, Journey to the Centre of the Earth.

Visit Húsavík, the first place in Iceland to be settled by a Norse man. Swedish Viking Garðar Svavarsson stayed there for one winter around 870 A.D. and left

behind a member of his party and two slaves who established the first farm. Today Húsavík is known as the ‘whale watching capital’ of Iceland. Soak and relax in geothermal sea baths with stunning views of Skjálfandi Bay and the lighthouse nearby.

Explore the wild and extraordinary coastlines of Scotland, fiercely proud of its history and culture, astounding and dramatic natural beauty. Scotland and its many islands scattered along the rugged coastline offer a wealth of incredible experiences, from wildlife to Celtic and Viking sites, the Scottish Isles are utterly unique. Discover small Scottish towns unique experiences, from the Shetlands to Orkney, the Outer Hebrides and Aberdeen with their unique charm and characters.

Scotland offers secret waterways, magnificent mountains and mysterious standing stone remnants, as well Stone Aged villages and a culture of kilts, bagpipes and whiskey.

Every day brings new discoveries. With Scenic Freechoice, choose your activity, whether it’s going for a walking tour of fishing villages, enjoying a performance in the Blue Church of Seyðisfjörður, or join a local sea captain to explore the archipelago of Heimaey to find seabird colonies alive with puffins, guillemots and terns. Listen to amazing tales of how local villagers pumped cool seawater onto lava streams advancing from nearby Eldfell volcano and thus saved their seaport. Our exclusive Scenic Enrich events offer unique and private shows that highlight Icelandic culture and folklore. Experience the many islands that dot Scotland from the wildlife to Celtic and Viking sites, that the Scottish Isles are famous. Best of all is to feel the spray, listen to the song, and photograph the beauty and wonder of Iceland’s many waterfalls. From thundering Dynjandi (‘the one that keeps hitting’), a series of cascades that tumble 100 metres in the Westfjords; Dettifoss in Vatnajökull National Park, reputed to be Europe’s second most powerful waterfall.

Whether you choose to circumnavigate the island on our Iceland or Scotland voyage you’ll be enchanted forever.

Bergen, Norway

Discover Iceland

Enter the land that is almost too magical to be true – an extraordinary land peppered with waterfalls, volcanoes, lava fields, geysers, geothermal pools, black sand beaches, mountains, fjords, dancing aurora lights, and Europe’s largest glacier. Here, trolls and elves are not mere ancient mythical beings, they are an intrinsic part of Icelandic culture, and traces of Viking heritage are evident in everyday life.

The Golden Circle

The most sought after route to explore Iceland, the Golden Circle covers the three most iconic attractions of the country – the Thingvellir National Park, the Gullfoss waterfall, and the Geysir Geothermal Area. Also along the way are several other lesser known, breathtaking wonders.

Thingvellir National Park is a place of geological, historical and cultural significance to Icelanders. The first Althing (the Icelandic parliament) session was held here in 930 AD. This is where the country declared its independence from Denmark in 1944, and the national park is the fascinating site of the continental drift between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates.

The Golden Circle route gets its name from the Gullfoss Waterfall, Icelandic for Golden Waterfall. A walk along a narrow track offers spectacular close-up views of the two-tiered waterfall below. In sunny summer months, you can see a rainbow form across the cascading glacial waters, while during the winter months, the water freezes into undulating glassy waves.

The nearly 3km wide geothermal field of Geysir Geothermal Area is home to the highly active Strokkur geyser which sprouts hot scalding water 100 feet into the air every 5-10 minutes. The original ‘Great Geysir’, which lends its name to all the ‘geysers’ of the world, was known to hurl water over 200 feet into the air before it became dormant. Today, the 60 feet wide hole of The Great Geysir quietly steams.

Icelandic cuisine

Unsurprisingly, seafood forms a large part of the Icelandic cuisine, as do lamb and dairy. The country’s culinary innovations involving fish and lamb are limitless. The kjötsúpa, traditional lamb meat soup, is a favourite during winter months. The harðfiskur, dried fish jerky, is enjoyed as a snack with butter. Pylsur, the Icelandic hot dog, is a popular fast food amongst locals and tourists alike. And the skyr is a yoghurt-like dairy product that serves as the perfect accompaniment to any meal. Icelanders love their ice cream and can be seen enjoying it even in the cold winter months.

Discover Alaska

Alaska, a destination of dramatic landscapes, native cultures, abundant wildlife and rugged wilderness. There are few locales in the world that rival such extraordinary nature-based experiences. Meet an Iditarod champion on your way to the wild tundra of Denali National Park. Be struck by the untamed Alaskan wilds and its vastness, visit towns where fascinating gold rush history is still prominent. Alaska is sure to leave a lasting impression.

The Centrepiece of Alaska – Denali National Park

Surrounded by mountains, glaciers, wild rivers, boreal forest and Arctic tundra, perpetually snowcapped Denali National Park was established to protect the wilderness. Nothing more alluring than what is found in the shadow of North America’s highest peak – the 6,190m Denali – the focus of our specially curated land journey, Wilds of Alaska.

Alaskan Discovery

A tiny hamlet in the Mat-Su Valley, Talkeetna is home to incredible nature adventures and one of the perfect places to view the spectacular Denali. It retains its early Alaska feel, with log cabins, historic buildings, colourful locals and wild west storefronts. Here you will soar into the heart of Denali National Park and fly among some of the most beautiful and rugged mountain landscapes in the world, watching for moose, black bears, Dall sheep and mountain goats, landing high on a glacier for a treasured walk.

Alaskan Huskies

No Alaskan journey would be complete without dog sledding and few ‘mushers’ would be more qualified to show you the ‘ropes’ than Iditarod champion and kennel owner Vern Halter. The Iditarod is the world’s most renowned sled dog race run over a distance of 1,510km from Anchorage to Nome and Vern is a consistent top 10 finisher. Delight in an exhilarating ATV sled ride pulled by Vern’s dogs before visiting the kennel to tussle with lively puppies.

Whether it’s wildlife, wilderness, Native American culture, adrenalin-inducing whitewater or the overwhelming scale and glory of Denali, one week’s journey into the heart of Alaska will recharge your spirit and feed your soul.

Scenic Eclipse Frequently Asked Questions

Scenic Eclipse has set the benchmark in 6-star ultra-luxury, offering guests unrivalled on board and onshore experiences in the extraordinary destinations of the Arctic. Here are some of the questions we get asked the most by our guests.

Why is Scenic Eclipse’s design important when visiting the Arctic?

Scenic Eclipse has been designed to sail through Arctic waters. With a polar-class 6 rating, a strengthened hull and custom-built stabilisers, 50% larger than any ship of its size, the Discovery Yachts glide with sophisticated ease through all water conditions. Your journey will always be comfortable and safe.

What is a GPS Dynamic Positioning system?

Scenic Eclipse features state-of-the-art technology with an advanced GPS Dynamic Positioning system that holds the Discovery Yacht in position, negating the need to drop anchor on ecologically sensitive seabeds. This technology ensures we can visit the most remote regions, and leave as small a footprint as possible.

Who are the Discovery Team?

Each Expedition Voyage features up to a 20-member Discovery Team, each handpicked for their diverse expertise. Geologists, historians and glaciologists are just a few of the experts on board, elevating the guest experience in the extraordinary destinations we visit.

Antarctica

A land of pristine beauty and breathtaking wildlife, each day will be unique with discovery experiences in 6-star ultra-luxury. As you discover the secrets in an icy grip for all but five months, when the sea ice slowly retreats and penguins, seabirds, whales and seals make their way south for an intense breeding and feeding season. Scenic Eclipse was designed for Antarctic exploration, from Zodiac excursions past lounging seals to helicopter flights^ over ancient glaciers, experience extraordinary moments of wonder only a Discovery Yacht can offer.
