Seabourn is bringing back a limited number of rooms on two Antarctica Expeditions for just $9,999 per person! If you have been considering an Antarctica Expedition which includes hiking on the 7th continent, now is your opportunity! The limited time deal is for two new expeditions in November and December 2023. Prices this low are rare for Antarctica. Every other sailing with Seabourn starts at $11,499 and that’s still cheap considering Viking charges over $13,000 per person on a larger ship and other luxury operators such as Ponant and SilverSeas charge closer to $13,000-$20,000!
Antarctica Expedition Deal
The best deal currently available is $9,999 per person for a Veranda Suite sailing November 27- through Dec 8, 2023 or December 7 – December 18, 2023 on the brand new Seabourn Pursuit. To hold you space a fully refundable deposit is due today of $2,452 per person. Or $4,904 per room. The remaining balance is due 90 days before departure. The deposit remains fully refundable until 120 days before departure. Meaning you can lock in the best rates to Antarctica today, but not pay in full until summer 2023.
Enjoy 2 days crossing the Drake Passengers and then 5 days exploring the Antarctica Peninsula. Actual destinations in the Peninsula depends on weather.
$9,999 Balcony Suites
$9,999 Balcony SuitesWhat is most compelling about Seabourn is that the cruise ships are quite luxurious. The Seabourn Venture maiden voyage was in Summer of 2022. It’s sister ship, the Pursuit, will launch in the Fall of 2023, just in time for these new sailings. The new Polar Class 5 ship was built for luxury polar expeditions –unlike the older ships that have been refurbished utilized by most of the competition. Silverseas expeditions watch out, Seabourn offers a ship built specifically for Antarctica. Also, EVERY room on Seabourn is a Verandah Suite.
For $9,999 per person, you get a Verandah V1 suite on the Seabourn Pursuit. These suites are 355 sq. ft. (33 sq. m.) and include a 75 sq. ft. (7 sq. m.) private balcony.
Suites on Seabourn Venture and Pursuit feature a comfortable living area which includes a table for two and a couch. Each suite has a private veranda; queen-size bed or two twin beds; an extra-large walk-in closet for expedition gear; personal safe; interactive flat-screen TV with music and movies; fully stocked bar and refrigerator. Seabourn cuts no corners on their rooms offer more than 150 sq feet more personal space than most ships. Even the bathrooms are over the top. A full five piece bathroom feature large soaking tubs, walk in shower, and a large double sink.
Seabourn Expedition – All Inclusive Pricing
On Seabourn, nearly everything is included in the cost of the Sailing. All you have to do is purchase your flights to Buenos Aires. Once on the ship, all your food, premium alcohol and daily excursions are included. Even Wifi, all dining options, gratuities are built into the cost!
Each cruise to Antarctica includes the following amenities:
- Pre-cruise Hotel
- Roundtrip Charter flight between Buenos Aires and Ushuaia
- Inclusive Zodiac tours and landings (Zodiac is the preeminent inflatable boat maker)
- Digital photography workshops
- Helly Hanson Parka and day pack
- Opportunities for frequent wildlife sightings from the ship and on shore

Unlike other cruise lines, I’m looking at you Hurtriguten, Seabourn includes nearly everything in the cost. On Seabourn there are only a few extra costs. For example, there are only two excursions which are not complimentary. You can include an Antarctica submarine excursion exploring the depths of the Weddell Sea in an all-electric sub. Or consider Kayaking in Antarctica on a guided Antarctica Kayak adventure. Otherwise, enjoy the multiple daily complimentary Antarctic excursions.
Seabourn Expedition Ship
The Seabourn Venture & Pursuit accommodate only 264 passengers. Each room has an exterior balcony and the ship also has several dining rooms, bars, hot tubs, as well as a large heated pool and a sauna. Take a look at the ship, it is stunning!
The Constellation Lounge will be the highest indoor viewing point on each ship. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls will wrap around the space, offering guests stunning 270-degree, outward-facing views as far as their eyes can see, heightening their expeditionary spirit while bringing them closer to wildlife and wonders at sea and in port.

Bottom Line
I absolutely love sailing Seabourn. I’ve written about Seabourn’s Antarctica deals several times. Providing additional information about the Zodiac tours and naturists onboard. Seabourn’s expeditions is taking on Lindblad, Ponant, and other major expedition operators while upping the luxury game. Seabourn Ventures will not be outdone and now is your chance to book your expedition at some of the lowest prices seen yet. Best yet, these sailings do not require full payment until Summer of 2023. Other deals we’ve seen at this price point required you to pay in full. Yet now, Seabourn is bringing you the best prices to Antarctica without that hurdle.
December is an amazing time to visit Antarctica. Whale migrations begin and Seal Pups are abundant. Penguins are everywhere, days are long, and the weather is warm. Do not miss this opportunity. Book your $9999 expedition today!
If you are considering an Antarctica Expedition, email me. Even if you don’t want to cruise with Seabourn, I work with nearly every operator in Antarctica. I’ll happily find the perfect expedition and dates for you.
