Terra Nova Expeditions, a specialist Antarctic expedition operator offering immersive, small-ship voyages, has announced the appointment of Polarverse as its General Sales Agent (GSA) for India, marking an important step in the company’s international growth and distribution strategy. Through this partnership, Polarverse will represent Terra Nova Expeditions across the Indian market, connecting travellers and travel trade partners with a range of authentic Antarctic experiences designed around exploration, accessibility and meaningful encounters with the natural world.
Terra Nova Expeditions operates its Antarctic voyages aboard the Terra Nova Adventurer, welcoming an average of just 98 guests per departure. With a strong focus on time spent exploring rather than simply observing, voyages include a comprehensive range of guided activities such as Zodiac cruising, shore landings, kayaking, snowshoeing and seasonal Antarctic camping, all included in the expedition fare, subject to weather and operational conditions.
Ross Avenell, Head of Global Sales, Terra Nova Expeditions, welcomed the partnership: “India represents an exciting opportunity for Terra Nova Expeditions, with an increasingly adventurous and well-travelled audience looking for experiences that go beyond traditional tourism. We see tremendous potential in introducing more Indian travellers to Antarctica through our intimate, expedition-focused approach. Polarverse brings valuable local market knowledge, specialist expertise and a genuine passion for polar travel, making them an ideal partner as we continue to expand our global reach. We look forward to building a strong, long-term relationship and making the extraordinary experience of Antarctica more accessible to travellers across India.”
