Explore reaches of the world led by award-winning Expedition Teams.

Stand on the Geographic North Pole, with nothing but a sturdy ice sheet between you and the depths of Arctic Ocean waters. Walk in the footsteps of an Emperor penguin in Antarctica, close enough to observe its silky plumage, its trademark gait, their regal silhouette against the starkly white icebergs. Exhilaration does not even begin to describe sensations this intense. When visiting lands so remote, so ancient, all trappings of modern life will feel stripped away, leaving just you and the Earth. A journey aboard is certain to transform the way you view the world.

These experiences push you to go beyond the limits of what you ever dreamed to be possible. And only a ship like Le Commandant Charcot can take you there.
