I had an absolutely amazing time with Swan Hellenic to Antartica in December, which I found was an excellent time to visit the continent. I cannot recommend Swan Hellenic enough. A number of single travelers were aboard. There was even a session dedicated to them prior to arriving in Antarctica where they could meet and mix!
I am currently posting a series of articles at my blog about my experience with literally dozens of photographs; but I have not yet completed the series...
Happy belated — or early — birthday!

I have a tradition (a recent one) where I like to make “big” birthdays disappear using the international date line
thus I am considering an Antarctica cruise from South America in December 2026, flying back to Australia the day before my birthday and landing the day after

I just went through this whole process and I wrote a post about it. Good luck with your decision.
