Fathom Expeditions

Dear Friends,

A warm welcome to Fathom Expeditions’ polar cruise world.

My veteran guide team and I have hand-crafted these select Arctic and Antarctic journeys to ensure they are comprehensive, comfortable and in-depth with lasting rewards. The years have taught us that a polar cruise is often considered a lifetime trip. We appreciate and share this view, operating a small, distinct collection of voyages annually in order to maximize the quality, benefits and experiences for our valued guests.

We will continue to offer a wide range of daily activities on each trip and during landings. These will allow Fathom clients to achieve their personal goals whether on a beach with half a million penguins, with whales amongst the icebergs, reliving history and science in the field or in a Zodiac spying polar bears.

Our past small ship cruises have won awards from National Geographic and other respected organizations. Accolades have appeared in the New York Times, The LA Times and a variety of magazines and news agencies. Most importantly, our thousands of past clients have returned home thrilled, smiling and as ambassadors for the Polar Regions and wildlife.

I hope you enjoy exploring our upcoming Polar expedition cruises and if you care to order one of our photo-filled brochures, simply give us a call at 1 800 621-0176 or drop us a note through the brochure page.

Thank you for your interest in cruising to the ends of the earth with Fathom Expeditions. The memories will last a lifetime...

Sincerely,

Fathom President leads the IMAX film teams for the movie Shackleton’s Antarctic Adventure.

The giant-screen film, Shackleton's Antarctic Adventure, has been released and is currently showing in several IMAX and other giant screen theatres across the United States, Canada and Europe. This epic tale of survival and leadership is an inspiring portrayal of Polar pioneer, Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew and their trials in the Antarctic. Two documentary film teams traveled across the Antarctic Ocean for over two and a half months to capture the incredible scenery and life-like re-creations in this film. Fathom's president, Dave German, was the expedition leader associated with the film projects and he found that guiding ambitious film teams throughout the Antarctic posed some daunting logistical challenges.
