- Buenos Aires, Argentina
Arrive and check into your hotel. Buenos Aires, Argentina's cosmopolitan capital, is an eclectic combination of Latin and European influences. The tree-lined streets and postcolonial architecture draw on the city's Spanish, French, and Italian heritage, while the many cafes and bodegas and vibrant nightlife are decidedly Argentine. Its barrios, or neighborhoods, exude an intimate atmosphere that belies the city's size. Full of bohemian flair, historic San Telmo's cobblestone streets and Belle Epoque-style buildings reverberate with the mesmerizing melodies of the tango. ...

- Ushuaia, Argentina
Ushuaia is the southernmost city in the world. Its splendid setting, tucked between the Beagle Channel and the southernmost slopes of the Andes, lends it an outpost atmosphere, as do the Antarctic explorers readying for the expeditions that depart from here. Ushuaia is the capital of and gateway to the celebrated Tierra del Fuego, the "Land of Fire", named by Spaniards upon seeing the constant flames burned by the indigenous Yamana to keep warm. This largely unspoiled region comprises the large island of Tierra del Fuego and countless Chilean and Argentine islands. ...

- Cruising Antarctica, Antarctica
At once ethereal and majestic, Antarctica has inspired explorers and adventurers for centuries. In this icy wilderness, marvel at icebergs glimmering in serene bays and mountains cloaked in white, rising from the mainland basalt cliffs. These stunning landscapes evoke both utter tranquility as fur seals lounge on a floating sheet of ice, and breathtaking drama as glaciers thunderously calve into the sea. In these cold and nutrient-rich waters, humpback, fin, and giant blue whales have been known to greet expedition ships that venture into their habitat. ...

- Cruising Cape Horn, Chile
Rising above the point where the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans converge, Cape Horn, named for the Dutch city of Hoorn in the Netherlands, is part of the Hermite Islands archipelago. This remote, stark, and treeless place is often considered the continent's southernmost point. Soaring from Hornos Island is an enormous prehistoric-looking massif of Jurassic volcanic rock. Atop stands its historic lighthouse near the water's edge. A beacon of assurance and safety for countless sailors since 1991, it is the world's southernmost traditional-style lighthouse. ...

The "city at the end of the world" is one of the planet's most breathtaking destinations; Andean peaks, pristine lakes, and boreal forests create a dramatic backdrop, surrounding this captivating coastal town.

The majesty of Antarctica's landscape attracts visitors seeking adventure, with its packed ice plains, rugged mountains, and abundance of wildlife, such as whales, seals, and various species of penguin.
