Melbourne, Australia, 24 June 2011 – Gap Adventures, the world’s adventure travel leader, has announced that it will be celebrating the end of financial year by rewarding local travellers with 20 per cent off its 2011/12 Antarctic season expeditions.
For tours ‘Antarctica Classic in Depth’ (Tour code: XVAESX), ‘Antarctica Classic’ (Tour code: XVCASX), ‘Quest for the Antarctic Circle’ (Tour code: XVQCSX, excludes 21 Dec & 25 Feb) and ‘Spirit of Shackleton’ (Tour code: XVSHSX), travellers can experience the majesty of one of the world’s untouched wildernesses with significant savings.
The discount comes as the ban on the use of heavy fuel oil in the Antarctic becomes law in August 2011, meaning the majority of larger cruise liners will no longer be able to ply the waters, leaving the seas and breathtaking scenery mainly to smaller ships such as Gap Adventures’ M/S Expedition and its travellers.
“We’ve seen a fantastic uptake of our Antarctica expeditions globally. We know that many people have Antarctica on their bucket list and, with a combination of this discount and tax returns, it’s one of the most affordable times to get there ” said Pete Rawley, Head Honcho of Gap Adventures Australia and New Zealand. “Experiencing Antarctica is something everyone should do at least once – it’s one of the most remarkable places I’ve been”
