From Buenos Aires to Buenos Aires
Seabourn has become the latest ultra-luxury cruise line to enter the expedition market with the launch of Seabourn Venture in 2022, followed by sister ship Seabourn Pursuit in 2023.
Seabourn Venture and Pursuit bring the trademark Seabourn style
and sophistication to the world of expedition cruising, with
interiors by designer Adam D Tihany, sumptuous veranda suite
accommodation and immersive adventure activities.
The streets of Buenos Aires are redolent of a grand old European capital, lined with elegant architecture that wouldn't look out of place in Madrid or Paris. There is also plenty of Latin passion on display: Argentina is the home of tango, that most electrifying of dances, and the central Plaza de Mayo has played host to countless revolutions and rallies over the years. Food is an important part of life here, and carnivores shouldn't pass up the opportunity to try the world's finest beef at one of the many steakhouses, known as parrillas. Other attractions include the beautiful Recoleta cemetery, the grand Teatro Colón and the colourful, arty district of La Boca.
Perched on the ragged southern edge of Argentina, where the snow-capped Andes fall away into the churning sea, Ushuaia has a frontier town feel to it, and serves as the base for expeditions into the icy waters of Antarctica.
Antarctica is the world’s last great wilderness, an alien landscape of snow-covered mountains, jagged icebergs and extraordinary wildlife. March is too late to see penguin chicks, and temperatures are getting colder, but it’s a great time to spot whales, with species including humpback, sperm and orca.
