Seabourn Venture and Pursuit meet for the first time in Antarctica

Seabourn Pursuit and Seabourn Venture are the two expedition ships that have sailed together for the first time ever on 22 November.

The encounter occurred at the Neko Harbour gateway, renowned for its awe-inspiring frozen landscapes.

Seabourn Pursuit has just completed its debut season in the Antarctic, while Seabourn Venture is embarking on her second voyage through the White Continent.

In celebration of this momentous encounter, the crew assembled at the front of each ship, where guests indulged in caviar and sparkling wine delicacies.

These ships will conduct expeditions from 11 to 13 days in Antarctica and 21-day journeys to the Falkland Islands, South Georgia, and the Antarctic region.
