CAUDWELL CHILDREN 100% DONATED LOT.

Sailing from Punta Arenas to Ushuaia you and a guest will stay in a Grand Prestige Suite Deck 6 aboard the Le Commandant Charcot. Beyond Peter I Island and Charcot Island, this exceptional cruise will take you into the heart of the Bellingshausen Sea. Named in honour of the Russian admiral and explorer who discovered Antarctica in 1820, this sea in the Southern Ocean, covered by ice floe most of the time, is hard to reach and practically unexplored.

But the reward lives up to the challenge: emperor penguins, a unique species endemic to the Antarctic and almost never observed, live here. This animal, elegant and majestic, is the promise of emotional encounters. In this season, as winter gradually gives way to the austral spring, you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the worl largest birds wandering the ice floes on the horizon, or emancipated juveniles learning to swim as the southern summer approaches.

Your Grand Prestige Suite Deck 6 room includes priority boarding, Champagne and fruit basket upon arrival, with an assortment of sweet and savory canapes and a fruit basket daily, butler service and two pairs of Swarvoski CL Companion 10 x 30 binoculars.
