    Brett

    Asked on June 11th, 2025

    I'm a solo traveler but i do not mind sharing a room with someone. Is it possible to sign up and share room with someone I don't know?

    Accommodation
    • On The Go ToursOperator•Written June 2025

      This tour doesn't offer share room unfortunately. If you are a single traveller you would need to book a single room.

    Shirley

    Asked on April 17th, 2025

    What will the bedding look like in a double cabin? Will the travelers have 2 separate beds? Or will there be 1 double bed available? Ideally, Laura would like a big double bed.

      TWIN standard cabin (€6,345 per person to share). The Standard cabin is based on TWIN shared cabin with two berths (upper/lower).

    • On The Go ToursOperator•Written April 2025

      The cheapest option with private facilities is our Standard PLUS cabin, (€8,065.00 per person)

    • On The Go ToursOperator•Written April 2025

      When anchored in the South Shetland Islands and Antarctic Peninsula there will be two shore excursions per day, ice and weather conditions permitting. The Ushuaia has its own fleet of zodiac boats, which hold up to 12 passengers and are manoeuvred by expert drivers. Not only are they sturdy and extremely versatile, allowing landings at otherwise inaccessible locations, they are also easy to board and disembark.
