how many people are sharing in a quad room

Quad cabins are reserved for groups of 4 only that are wanting to room together. As a solo you have the option to book into any Single, Triple, or Explorer twin cabins.

How much extra from the $9,516 is a single room, please?

The $9,516 USD cost is only applicable to the "Triple Cabin" which cannot be turned into a solo cabin. If you are looking at our December 6th - 16th, 2026 voyage of "Best of Antarctica: Wildlife Explorer" we currently have 3 "Twin" cabins that can be turned into a Solo for an additional fee or our "Solo Cabin" built for single travelers.

I'm flexible with my travel dates if you can give me a lower quote.

I can make payments through my debit card if there is an option to pay in 3 installments.

Is payment refundable before a given calendar date?

If you cancel a trip: (a) 56 days or more prior to departure, we will hold your deposit amount as a credit; (b) between 31 and 55 days prior to departure, we charge a cancellation fee of 30% of the total booking cost; (c) between 30 and 15 days prior to departure, we charge a cancellation fee of 60% of the total booking cost; (d) 14 days or fewer prior to departure, we charge a cancellation fee of 100% of the booking cost.

The tour itself was great. I didn’t receive my hotel information or confirmation until I actually landed in Ushuaia. The boat is operated by Intrepid, and I would give them the 5 star review. Participants who booked directly though them had opportunities to pick rooms, book additional tours and activities that are literally once in a lifetime experiences. By the time I even heard about them they were sold out or too much time had lapsed for “last minute” bookings. Book with intrepid directly, it’s worth it. They are very organized!Show more

We are sorry to hear that you were unable to book additional activities and services. While these additions are subject to availability they should be offered to all our customers in a timely manner whether booked directly or through an agent partner.

- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written September 2024
  Many countries require a visa and obtaining the correct visa for your trip and any countries you may transit through is your responsibility. No visas are required to visit the Antarctic continent or its offshore islands. However, you will need to have your passport with you on the ship, as port authorities will wish to inspect passports on departure from Ushuaia and also again at the end of your voyage
