Neko Harbor, nestled in Andvord Bay on the Antarctic Peninsula, is a breathtaking destination renowned for its stunning glaciers and abundant wildlife. Accessibility is exclusively via expedition cruise ships, making it inherently guided; solo visits are impossible. The harbor is generally visited during the Antarctic summer (November to March) due to favorable weather conditions and daylight. Expect the overall cost to be substantial, as it's part of an Antarctic cruise, typically ranging from $10,000 to $20,000 or more. A typical visit lasts a few hours, involving zodiac landings for penguin watching (Gentoo colonies thrive here), seal spotting, and potentially a hike on the glacier. Be prepared for cold temperatures and icy conditions. The experience offers incredible photo opportunities and a chance to witness the raw beauty of Antarctica.
