Antarctica Cruise Vacations & Experiences

Visiting Antarctica is limited to just a few months a year when summer’s warmth melts the surrounding waters allowing ships to come and go. Penguins gather along the shoreline by the thousands, seals and whales fill the seas, and you are a guest to view this amazing life cycle on the coldest continent on Earth. The history of Antarctica explorations come to life during evening presentations. This is a dream come true destination for wildlife lovers, botanists, biologists, geologists, and photographers. Let Accent on Travel be your guide in making this once-in-a-lifetime experience truly perfect!

Arctic Vacations & Experiences

Crossing into the Arctic circle is a historic moment for many, but exploring the coastlines of the Arctic in search of walrus and polar bears is even more momentous. By way of your Arctic cruise ship, you will visit some of the most remote towns in the world in wonder of their capacity to deal with the harsh climate and limited access to creature comforts. If you are interested, the travel advisors at Accent on Travel can time your visit for a better chance to see the night sky coming alive with the mystical Northern Lights. Perhaps viewing the Northern Lights while overnighting in a glass-domed room is on your wish list of travel experiences? We can make that exclusive vacation happen for you!

Accent on Travel Client Review

Accent on Travel has been wonderful to work with. We consistently work with Katie and her attention to detail and warm bubbly attitude makes it a pleasure to book travel. She’s orchestrated family flights originating in three different cities to rendezvous in one location, handled mobility challenged travel needs perfectly and is a wealth of destination knowledge and must dos. Yes we could book some of our travel ourselves but we enjoy the pampering and choose to use Katie and Accent on Travel as often as possible.
