CruiseIsGood Posted November 10, 2007 #1 Share Posted November 10, 2007 There are so many. Here is the one I'm thinking of taking on Discovery. Is this enough Antarctica time? Would you recommend Shetland Islands or South Georgia Islands?

2552phxcrzr Posted November 12, 2007 #2 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Since no one has responded, I'll put in my two cents. Itinerary/# of days look pretty standard for Peninsula trips that do not include the Falklands and S Georgia Island. Keep in mind, however, that weather will dictate where the ship actually ends up going and where landings are made. All posted itineraries are just "hope to visit."

This looks like the itinerary I would do because of limited time, however, if you are going on Discovery you may have a better chance to get off the shp if you pick an itinerary with the Falklands and South Georgia (just based on what I have read, Discovery only "guarantees" two stops in Antartica).
