      I need to start from Ushuaia to Ushuaia?

    • Exodus Adventure TravelsOperatorWritten August 2025

      If you are looking to start and end in Ushuaia - we do have our Antarctic Explorer tour with the Ushuaia start and end. Day two is when you would be boarding the ship. Typically I would encourage to be in destination at least a day prior to departure of the tour to be safe.

    • Exodus Adventure TravelsOperatorWritten August 2024

      In regard to cabins - we do have option to do a twin share on some cabin types and I can certainly double check for you. Do you have a departure date you were looking into? Once I know the date I can check availability and let you know cabin types available for twin share and cost.
