Remembering Antarctic Explorers
As a historian, Victoria Salem is more aware than most that to visit Antarctica in the comfort and luxury of Silversea Expeditions is such privilege. About a hundred years ago, the heroic age of Antarctic exploration took place in small wooden ships, while today Silversea guests can look out from their elegant suites onto landscapes dominated by dramatic icebergs, glaciers and tall mountain peaks. Step out of the everyday world and into this fantastic place where history comes alive.Victoria explains that it is impossible to imagine the Antarctic from descriptions and images alone. Almost like visiting another planet, you really have to exist inside the landscape of pristine ice-shrouded spaces to comprehend its beauty. With Silversea Expeditions, you will be whisked ashore aboard by Zodiac to walk on the ice, witness thousands of penguins, and lose yourself in the otherworldly spectacle of this isolated continent. Then you can return to the comfort of your elegant Silversea ship. How the early explorers would marvel at the many luxuries offered to Antarctic travellers by Silversea.
