Warner Bros. Discovery has produced and is set to launch a new docu-series ‘Maritime Masters: Expedition Antarctica’ revealing the exclusive behind-the-scenes view of ultra-luxury cruise ships.
The series showcases life on board Scenic Eclipse, the world’s first discovery yacht operated by Scenic, with an access-all-areas look at world-class professionals at sea and key characters from the Scenic crew taking viewers on a voyage of discovery.
From gastronomic cuisine and personalised in-suite butler services to soaring above by helicopter and diving deep below in a custom-designed submarine, Warner Bros. Discovery documents what it takes to journey to some of the world’s most pristine and culturally rich travel destinations across seven continents, including Antarctica, while delivering life-changing travel experiences for guests.

Discovery said: “A journey on board an ultra-luxury cruise ship is the stuff dreams are made of and as the leading global producer of real-life entertainment, there is no-one better placed to bring this to life than Warner Bros.
