EXPEDITION IN BRIEF
PLEASE NOTE: This itinerary is for guidance only. Programs may vary depending on local ice and weather conditions, the availability of landing sites and opportunities to see wildlife. Since we began our Atlantic Odyssey’s (1998) we failed during 30% of the voyages to make landings in the Tristan da Cunha archipelago, due to adverse weather. The final itinerary will be determined by the Expedition Leader on board. Flexibility is paramount for expedition cruises. Average cruising speed for m/v Plancius is 10,5 knots. Recently, all flights to and from Ascension have been cancelled. Therefore, you should also book PLA36-18 in order to catch your outbound flight from Praia, Cape Verde. Cruise fares of voyage PLA36-18 are offered with 20% discount.
