Snow Hill Emperor Penguins — New Trip!
A rare chance to walk among some of nature's most elusive and impressive creatures!
Trip Overview
There is no doubt that the emperor penguin is one of the most difficult birds on the planet to reach. It is also the one of the most impressive! Join us on this specially designed eco tourism expedition to the newly discovered emperor penguin rookery at Snow Hill, within a short cruising distance of the Antarctic Peninsula. This penguin viewing trip aboard an icebreaking vessel is specifically designed to explore this region and allow small groups of travelers to walk among Snow Hill emperor penguins in their natural habitat.
