Dear JourneyWoman, As you may have heard, JourneyWoman's Carolyn Ray has been on a Swan Hellenic ship for the past three weeks, having visited Egypt, Jordan and East Africa. When the Swan Hellenic team heard of her plans to return through Israel, they arranged for her to stay on the ship for another 10 days and fly safely home from Dubai instead. That's incredible service! Today, we're sharing an exclusive special deal with no single supplement just for JourneyWoman readers on Swan Hellenic's Antarctica expedition cruises from November 2023 to January 2024 - with prices starting at $5,999 USD/$8,200 CAD. Whether you travel solo or with a friend, or if you've been thinking about a polar cruise, these prices are just too good to pass up. Some run through the holidays — why stay home when you can reconnect with nature and wildlife. These exclusive deals are valid until November 10, 2023 or while inventory lasts. Kelly Predmesky, Director, North America, Swan Hellenic, says: "Female travelers should consider traveling to Antarctica because it is place where you can simultaneously disconnect, while feeling more connected than you have ever felt in your life. With Mother Nature’s finest work as the backdrop, surrounded by surreal iceberg formations, landscapes that will leave you feeling like you’re on another planet, and a symphony of wildlife and creaking ice, you have no choice but to be jerked into the present moment by the power, the vastness, the silence, the fragility, and the life found only in Antarctica.” Swan Hellenic is a founding partner in the "Small Ships" section of our Women's Travel Directory, and offers boutique-style cultural expeditions across all seven continents on their three brand new ships — the Minerva, Vega, and Diana — which carry less than 200 passengers each. It's the perfect size ship to connect with other guests, and receive personalized service in an expedition environment. Interested?
