Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, Aurora Expeditions has launched its Antarctic 2022/23 summer season itineraries.
The 2022/23 season marks the highest number of expedition voyages that Aurora Expeditions has operated in one Antarctic season with 26 departures running across its two, state of the art, purpose-built expedition ships, Greg Mortimer and Sylvia Earle. The season launches with early bird deals of up to 30% off.
