Passport validity, visa, ETA and arrival rules can change. Check the latest official requirements for every country on your itinerary before booking and again before departure. View current FCDO advice ↗

Health & Travel Insurance

Check recommended vaccinations, medication rules and local healthcare arrangements in good time. Comprehensive travel insurance should cover your medical needs, planned activities, cancellation and disruption.

The local currency is Usually US dollar onboard. Confirm card acceptance, cash needs, resort charges and transfer arrangements before travelling. Your most useful arrival point is normally Ushuaia USH or expedition gateway.

Expedition vessels are international environments, but operator culture varies. I will select an inclusive company and review current gateway-country advice. Always respect local laws and customs, including rules concerning medication, dress, alcohol and public behaviour.
