This will be our third cruise on Seabourn, after two three-week Mediterranean adventures we were keen to revisit one of our most enjoyable ever trips - to the tip of Antarctica.
Prevously we'd done this on Holland America's Veendam, which at around 1300 passengers is small by cruise ship standards, but too big for Antarctic regulations to allow disembarcation, so we watched the amazing views from the ship for 5 spectacular days.
This time, the 450 passengers are allowed an hour per day on land, weather and many regulations permitting.
This will be on the Quest, making each of our three cruises on each of the three same-sized vessels Seabourn has (there are two new ones that are fractionally larger.)
Our itinerary is almost identical to the last time on Veendam, although we started further north at Rio on that occasion, and that was (except for the Antarctic part) the same as our first HAL cruise on Rotterdam over a decade ago. This means it will be our third time in every port except Isla Chiloe, which is new this time.
