Travel the World by Train. Train travel is much more than just an environmentally friendly means of transportation; it is an experience in itself. When unfamiliar landscapes pass by the windows and the train travels through foreign countries on spectacular routes, the focus is on the journey. Train travel not only offers a different view but a new kind of adventure too.

Antarctica

Antarctica is a place like no other – the driest, windiest, and coldest place on Earth, often referred to as the seventh continent. To sail through the infamous Drake Passage for two days and nights and simply 'be a guest' in Antarctica, a continent that belongs to nature and wildlife. To reflect, and realize where you are, is a feeling that's hard to put into words. What also stood out for us were the other guests. We had the pleasure of meeting many like-minded travelers who shared the same passion. Most of us met as strangers and left as friends.

What we love about Antarctica...

It's a place beyond words, the sheer remoteness is beyond imagination
