These Northbound segments will start in the southernmost part of the word: Departing from Ushuaia, Argentina, you'll sail through the Drake Passage, where the Atlantic and Pacific meet the Great Southern Ocean to create the Antarctic Convergence. Then it's on to Antarctica, a temptation for explorers such Amundsen, Shackleton, Byrd and Scott, and home to a surprising variety of wildlife. After calls at South Georgia and the Falkland Islands, you'll continue north to South America, calling at Montevideo, Uruguay, and ports in Brazil, including Parati, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador de Bahia, Recife and Fernando de Noronha. From Hamburg, Germany, you will continue north to Scandinavia and Russia and then head west to England and Ireland. Finally, in Iceland you'll cruise Surtsey Island and the Vestmannaeyjar archipelago, before arriving in Iceland's unique capital, Reykjavik.

You spend 6-12 hours in each port.
