1 ANTARCTICA JAN 6 13, 2019

2 A LEGACY OF EXPLORATION Less than a century ago, Antarctica was the domain of heroic explorers and enterprising whalers. Today, the rewards and adventure remain just as amazing. Ten years ago, EYOS Expeditions became the first company to offer luxury superyacht voyages to the Antarctic. Reaching the last continent still entails challenges that demand competence and hard-won expertise. Our collective knowledge and commitment to Antarctica is unmatched. In 2019, we will pioneer again a new Antarctic experience. For the first time ever, you will be able to purchase an individual cabin on a private superyacht in Antarctica. This approach introduces a level of luxury and flexibility that, until now, only a select few have experienced. Join EYOS on January 6, 2019 as we set out for a week of awe and wonder aboard the 77-meter superyacht Legend.

3 SUPERYACHT LIFE Hop into a Zodiac, on a whim, to mingle with Humpback whales. Linger longer at colonies of parading penguins. Or, enjoy a late morning breakfast, mimosa, and a massage before venturing leisurely ashore. Having Antarctica s pristine environment all to yourself is a genuine privilege only possible on a superyacht. Legend s guest-to-crew ratio of almost 1:1 ensures attentive, personalized service. As one of 26 guests, you will have, in every way, a more intimate and bespoke experience. Despite the comforts of the yacht, the expedition spirit is unmistakable. Three EYOS guides will encourage you to learn, see and do more. We offer our decades of expertise to craft the most memorable expedition you can imagine.

4 ITINERARY January 6 13, 2019

5 ANTARCTICA BY AIR By flying from Punta Arenas to the wildlife-rich South Shetland Islands, we save days of open ocean sailing and avoid entirely the notoriously rough Drake Passage. Upon landing on King George Island, we may choose to cruise to Antarctic Sound where tabular icebergs stretch for miles or into the volcanic caldera of Deception Island. As we push south through the fjords, islands and channels of the Danco Coast, we will take several days to explore its wildlife, frozen landscapes and towering peaks. We may visit legendary sites like Paradise Bay and the Lemaire Channel, and stop at research stations to learn from the scientists who work on the contintent. On our final day, we return to King George Island to embark on the flight back to Chile.

6 THE EYOS EXPERIENCE ADVENTURE IN LUXURY

7 EXPEDITION LEADERSHIP EYOS expedition guides underpin our commitment to excellence. Handpicked by our company founders, they are experts in their field with decades of experience. Our clients expect the best; we in turn demand the highest standards from our team. Friendly, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and skilled, our expedition guides are equally at home as your dinner guest as they are keeping you safe on the ice. They understand the unique environment of a private yacht and integrate seamlessly onboard. Their insights and stories bring Antarctica to life.

8 LANDINGS Switchbacks lead to the ridge at Orne Harbor. The fjord-like Errera Channel is visible on one side as a glacier tumbles into the small bay on the other. A brief snowball fight erupts before you slide down the hill with childlike glee.

9 PENGUIN COLONIES Watch Gentoo penguins tend their nests and call raucously to the sky after their comical commute from the sea. As you sit contemplating the scene, a curious penguin gathers its nerves to peck around your feet. Time spent with penguins leaves you elated, energized, and laughing.

10 WHALE WATCHING As you cruise through the Gerlache Strait, the early morning light is punctuated with countless blows that catch the sun. A quick word from your Expedition Guide and moments later you are in a tender as a pod of Humpback whales lunge feed nearby.

11 ICEBERGS Infinite in combinations of color, size, shape and texture, Antarctic ice is captivating and mysterious. Sculpted blue icebergs glide past, the bow nudges gently through pack ice floes, and tabular icebergs some miles long tower above as you gaze in awe at these cliffs of ice.

12 TENDER CRUISES Zodiac tenders allow you to explore along rocky coasts or deep into ice-strewn waters. Passing below a wave-sculpted arch, your guide shares his favorite hidden cove. Tenders are the perfect platform to view penguins along the shore.

13 KAYAKING Dipping your paddles into the clear, crisp water, you feel a profound appreciation for the scale and stillness of the Antarctic wilderness. Penguins surround your kayak as you pause to watch a seal sleeping on the ice.

14 ICE NAVIGATION Chat on the Bridge with your EYOS Ice Pilot as he shares his years of sailing Antarctica s wild waters. Our Ice Pilots are unlimited tonnage Master Mariners, qualified to captain any sized ship anywhere.

15 POLAR PLUNGE We pick a sunny day and stand by with a stiff, warming drink. Gather your nerves and jump! The sauna is only steps away once you re back onboard.

16 WELLNESS Antarctica is an escape from the stress of the office and the constant buzz of a cellphone. For morning yoga, breathe in crisp, fresh air surrounded by silence, or enjoy a massage in the spa.

17 STATION VISITS Learning about the heroic age of exploration and science that continues to this day is an integral part of an Antarctic expedition. Schedule permitting, we ll visit a station and even get a chance to mail postcards!

18 LEGEND THE ULTIMATE EXPEDITION YACHT

19 POWERFUL RUGGED LUXURY Few yachts can match the experience that Legend offers. Originally built as a Class 1 icebreaker, she possesses an astoundingly strong hull capable of delivering the ultimate polar expedition. Her robust bow effortlessly brushes aside larger floes as she pushes deep into the sea ice, reaching areas off limits to lesser vessels. Her impressive capabilities do not stop there. Relax in the yacht s many lounges, read in a quiet nook, or laugh with friends as you share your favorite photos from the day. You may choose to work out in the gym, or indulge in the Balinese spa. There is also a beauty salon, cinema, and in-cabin entertainment system. Expansive outdoor deck space ensures Antarctica s stunning scenery and wildlife are never far. Visit the bridge, where the Captain and his officers are always happy to see you. On sunny days, enjoy an outdoor lunch or a soak in the hot tub.
