Cruise the Antarctic with discount travel offer

Bales Worldwide is offering discounts of up to £375 per person on the Antarctic Discovery holiday on board the newly launched MS Fram. Be one of the first passengers on this vessel, named after Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen's Polar ship, as it celebrates its debut season of cruising in Antarctica this winter (with departures through November 2007 to February 2008).

Prices for the 14 day Antarctic Discovery holiday start from £3870 per person (normally £4120 per person, representing a discount of £250.) Those looking to upgrade to suite accommodation will qualify for a £375 per person discount. The discounts are valid for travel from November 2007 to February 2008, for bookings made before the end of July.

The price includes all international and regional flights from London to Ushuaia, the world’s southernmost city, and eight nights full board accommodation in a N grade cabin on the MS Fram and three nights accommodation in Santiago.

Departing through the Beagle Channel, the cruise boat crosses the legendary Drake Passage towards the Antarctica Peninsula where humpback and killer whales, penguins and elephant seals are common sight. After five days in the Antarctic Peninsula, MS Fram returns across the Drake Passage, passing Cape Horn on its journey to Ushuaia.

On board MS FRAM you will find panoramic lounges, spacious cabins and a dedicated expedition team to give on-board lectures and briefings such as wildlife, geology and environmental aspects.

The surreally beautiful landscape of the Southern Oceans present some of the most spectacular wildlife encounters. Sailing through these magnificent seas offers the opportunity to witness the powerful beauty of the mighty leviathans of the deep and enjoy this truly visual feast that this white continent has to offer.
