Dreaming of your next adventure? You do not want to miss the Chimu Adventures' Black & White Friday Sale.
With up to two for one offerings in off select Antarctic Expeditions, and 10% off the recently launched Southern Lights Flights – a unique scenic flight to view the Aurora Australis up close – now is the perfect time to lock in your next big adventure.
The Chimu Adventures' Black and White Friday Sale is now live and will run until the 1st December.
An Antarctica expedition is an experience like no other, and after the craziness of 2020, its appeal has only increased. With savings of up to 25% off and reduced deposits on Ocean Endeavour seasons 2021/22 and 2022/23 during the Black and White Friday Sale, reaching Antarctica is now more achievable than ever.
The massive discounts combined with Ocean Endeavour's Book with Assurance and Sail with Confidence Policies provide travellers with the security and peace of mind to book confidently and look forward to a safe post-COVID Antarctic travel experience.
Departures available in the sale include the unique 14-day Solar Eclipse Voyage – a November 2021 expedition alongside a team of astrophysics, meteorology and photography experts to witness a once-in-a-lifetime solar eclipse in Antarctica. The 14-day Uncharted Antarctica: East and West Peninsula – provides an unparalleled exploration to several excursion sites on the Peninsula's less-trodden eastern side before capping off the voyage with the continent's more famous landing sites. There are also several departures to the Antarctic Circle, including a Xmas and NYE itinerary, an 11-day Antarctic Whale Journey, and the ultimate 21-day Antarctica, South Georgia & Falklands Islands Odyssey – an expedition rich in wildlife and Antarctic history.
For those looking to travel sooner, Chimu Adventures is offering up to 10% off the recently launched Southern Lights Flights. Scheduled for April – May 2021, these 10-hour flights provide Australian passengers with an unprecedented front-row view of the Aurora Australis. Departing and returning to Australia's major domestic terminals, lucky passengers will fly over the Southern Ocean, alongside a team of expert astronomers towards Antarctica onboard a QANTAS Boeing 789 Dreamliner, surrounded by the spectacular dancing lights of the Aurora Australis.
For years, Australians have spent a small fortune travelling to the Arctic Circle in pursuit of the Northern Lights, and although the Southern Lights are equally impressive, few have had the opportunity to witness the Aurora Australis in person. The Southern Lights charter flights provide Australian travellers with unprecedented access to the remote Aurora zone at precisely the right moment. The flights will coincide with the Autumn equinox when auroras are brightest and most frequent.
The flight itineraries have been carefully planned in consultation with renowned astrophysicist, Aurora hunter, and Director of the Otago Museum in New Zealand, Dr Ian Griffin.
"I'm really excited about this charter flight. Flying into the southern auroral zone is a wonderful experience, and you never know quite what you are going to see. as I said on my return from the first flight; "We've travelled two-thirds of the way to the south pole, seen an incredible display of the southern lights, got lovely pictures, and we are home in time for breakfast" - Dr Ian Griffin.
The Chimu Adventures' Black and White Friday Sale combines the best of the company's recent offers and expands on them to provide a comprehensive sale opportunity not to be missed. The Black and White Friday Sale runs until the 1st December. Head to the Chimu Adventures Black and White Friday Sale page for the full range of offers available.
