South Georgia holds the largest concentrations of wildlife anywhere on earth, and is a longer voyage than the Peninsula alone.

King penguin colonies here run to hundreds of thousands of birds, and the beaches carry elephant and fur seals in numbers that are difficult to describe. Shackleton is buried at Grytviken.
Adding South Georgia and the Falklands turns a ten-day trip into something closer to three weeks, and it is the version most experienced polar travellers recommend.
