Can I visit Antarctica on a budget? - are there last minute deals or special offers on cruises? There is no "shoestring" way to get to Antarctica but by being flexible and booking at fairly short notice you can make savings on the full fares.

Antarctica - Early Booking Deals and Special Offers
The new Antarctic cruising season is nearly under way! it lasts from late October 2023 until late March 2024.
Ask us about some great early booking discounts!
Don't trust to luck. Ensure your cabin awaits on the date you expect so you can arrange your flights to fit.
It is possible to go to Ushuaia where you may save up to 50% on advertised full costs, this will still cost several thousand dollars as the cheapest cabins are usually all taken in advance. You need to stay in town during peak season and visit numerous travel agencies daily, ready to travel the next day. Nothing is guaranteed, at some times there may be a choice of deals, at others there may be hardly any at all.
