Ushuaia Adventure Corporation

The Ushuaia Adventure Corporation are a world class ship owner who own the vessel Ushuaia, however she is chartered to Tucan Travel who work with an Argentine company who are committed to the field of Antarctic supply, oceanographic research and tourism and are based at the port of Ushuaia, the hub for Antarctic.

Most Antarctic passenger vessels carry more than 100 passenges, hoever with Tucan's maximum group size of just 66, you'll spend more time getting snow underneath your boots and less time waiting in line for your turn to touch the wilderness (the International Association of Antarctic Tour Operators state a max of 100 people are allowed on shore at any time). In additiona, the faster cruising speed of the "Ushuaia" means that they usually complete the crossing of the Drake Passage by the morning of day 3 (rather than the evening as on most voyages) giving almost a full additional day in the Antarctic.
