Scenic Eclipse Beyond the Horizon

Soar above

Let our two state-of-the-art Airbus H130-T2 helicopters^ take you above and beyond the horizon. Custom-designed for flightseeing, providing treasured views of tabular icebergs, rugged peaks, sublime Antarctic ice-cap and a bird’s-eye view of Antarctic wildlife – a perspective few have ever experienced. These helicopters are one of the quietest aircrafts in the travel industry, with Bose® noise-cancelling headsets creating a quiet ambience. Guests can enjoy the awe-inspiring landscapes as they listen to the pilot’s commentary. Enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to ski* on Antarctica’s incredible terrain as a helicopter takes you to the top of its mountain slopes. Go where few have gone before, as our helicopter landings^ take you further inland for in-depth destination exploration.

Scenic Eclipse’s customised submarine^ can take up to eight guests, plus your expert pilot. Dive up to 200 metres underwater to reveal the wonders from steep walls festooned with colourful life. See corals, sponges and the blown-glass beauty of Polar tunicates, plus seabeds decorated with gigantic seastars and exquisite nudibranchs. With a revolving seating platform, every seat in the submarine is a front row seat to the action.
