Want to Travel to Antarctica—For Free?

There’s nowhere in the world as inspiring or unique as Antarctica. From gigantic icebergs to adorable penguins, every day in Antarctica brings discovery, wonder, and adventure. A cruise is the best way to discover Antarctica, with every day bringing new places to explore, varied wildlife, and changing scenery. Jump on a zodiac and land on the Antarctic continent to observe penguins, grab a kayak and look for whales (they’re hard to miss!), or simply enjoy the views with a coffee in hand, taking in the landscape from your cabin.

However, its remote location means a trip to Antarctica is a big investment. Ever wished you could go for free?

Great news—now you can! If you and a group of friends, family members, colleagues, or fellow travellers book a trip with us, you’ll travel for free. That’s it, no catch!

How does it work?

Chimu Adventures would love to help you and your group cruise with us to Antarctica. We’re interested to hear from anyone who wants to visit Antarctica, so if you’re someone who has a group of team members, colleagues, or mates with an interest in visiting, then this could be for you!

You don’t need to be an influencer or blogger, as this opportunity is open to everyone.

Here’s how you can go to Antarctica for free:

• Sign up with Chimu Adventures to promote a specific Antarctic voyage within the 2025/2026 cruising season of the Ocean Nova, an expedition ship that's ideal for group travel. 
• Talk about the tour with your friends, networks, colleagues, followers, or group members-anyone who might be interested!
• For the 2025/2026 Antarctic season: For every 10 people who book, you’ll get one additional free place—how good! If 20 people book, you’ll get two free places.

You can spread the word about the opportunity in any way that works for you. Share on your personal social media channels or website, include it in your club or team’s upcoming newsletter, or keep it old school—give your friends a call and let them know about this opportunity!

The beauty and adventures of Antarctica are best shared with others, so travelling with a group is an incredible way to make your trip more special and meaningful. Swapping stories in the evening with friends or relatives, warm drink in hand, is such a special way to look back on your day’s activities and excitement.

Who is eligible?

Anyone and everyone! If you’re someone who thinks they can encourage a group of people to book, then we’d love to hear from you.

Perhaps you’re a member of a bird-watching, photography, or travel club and are looking for an opportunity to travel together. You could be someone with a large group of friends or family that can’t wait to book a trip of a lifetime after the stresses of lockdown. Or, maybe you run a travel blog or YouTube channel.  If that sounds like you, then we’d love to hear from you!

Worried you might not get enough sign-ups? You might be surprised!

“It’s quite amazing,” says James McAlloon, Chimu’s Global Relationship Manager and program lead.

“Nearly everyone we’ve partnered with didn’t think they would get enough people booked, yet they have all smashed that milestone.”

Sounds fantastic—how do I get started?

Ready to start packing your bags? So are we! We can’t wait to get back to Antarctica and are excited as you are.

If you’re interested in signing up, learning more, or have a few questions, please reach out. We’re happy to talk you through the details of how the program works, with no obligations, of course.

If you are happy to sign up, we’ll also help with marketing tips and suggestions, based on what’s worked well for others in the past. You’ll also have our full support every step of the way, from the initial enquires to managing the booking process for your travellers.

Chimu Adventures welcomes anyone that would like to explore this opportunity by emailing James at james.mcalloon@chimuadventures.com.
