Dedicated Antarctica video site produced by Voyages of Discovery

A dedicated Antarctica brochure for 2008-09 has been issued by Voyages of Discovery with many pictures taken by past passengers.

A new video site has also been developed by the line with a dedicated Antarctica area, www.voyagesofdiscovery.com/Antarctica.

The site offers video clips highlighting the passenger experience on board the ship Discovery in Antarctica.

Voyages of Discovery runs seven voyages to the region this winter, with more ports of call around the sub-Antarctic Islands, including South Georgia, the South Shetlands and the South Orkneys. The Falklands and South America also feature.

A discount of Ã&#pound;500 per couple or Ã&#pound;250 per person is being offered for bookings made by August 31. This gives a lead-in of Ã&#pound;2,995 per person for a 23-day Cape to Cape voyage departing on February 7 from Buenos Aires to Cape Town.

Managing director David Yellow said: Ã¢â¬ÅâœPositive feedback from our clients is highly valued and speaks volumes to prospective passengers.

Ã¢â¬ÅâœThere's nothing more inspiring than reaction from an impartial source and featuring our passengers' actual photography provides very real and positive images of the Antarctica we know and visit.

Ã¢â¬ÅâœThere is no doubt that focusing on individual experiences provides a unique insight into this fascinating destination."
