Travel to Antarctica for 2023 and 2024 is very much in focus for travelers seeking far away explorations and places to discover. Quark Expeditions, a Leader in polar adventures, has unveiled a robust Antarctic 23.24 season with nine itineraries designed to empower travelers to tap into their inner Ernest Shackleton during what the expedition line tabs as “the most immersive polar voyages available in the expedition industry.”

“With our Antarctic 23.24 season, we want more than ever before to take travelers beyond the predictable and the ordinary during their polar voyage,” says Thomas Lennartz, Vice-president of Sales for Quark Expeditions. “Quark Expeditions has always explored Antarctica differently from other operators, and in the Antarctic 23.24 season we’ll heighten our efforts to take our guests to explore like never before. Our data has been very clear: travelers to Antarctica don’t just want to see things. They want to experience them. They want to venture farther than most others dream of, and to discover nature at its rawest.”

Lennartz points out that travel to Antarctica are means exploring the region alongside the most seasoned polar experts on Earth: “If you really want to see a penguin, our expedition team—the best in the industry—will take you to a nesting spot of a quarter million. Will you be content to take another cruise? Or would you prefer to cruise 1,000 feet over the untouched Antarctic wilderness in a twin-engine helicopter? Do you want to explore off the beaten path in Antarctica? Or will you let us take you to where there are no paths at all? The choice for our guests: Do you want to go on vacation? Or go on the expedition of a lifetime?”
