Falkland Islands and South Georgia: 20-Day Wildlife Adventure
This extraordinary voyage devotes more time to wildlife-rich South Georgia than any other. Witness king penguins and elephant seals carpeting the coastline in jaw-dropping numbers – this island isn’t nicknamed the “Serengeti of the South” for nothing – and be one of the few to venture to the rarely visited northwestern Falklands.
