A LONDON-BASED travel company is offering nine tourists the chance to visit what remains of the RMS Titanic on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean.
OceanGate Expeditions says that for a cool $105,129, passengers can buy a seat inside a custom-built submarine and view arguably the most famous shipwreck on the planet.
“Fewer than 200 people have ever visited the wreck,” said Stockton Rush, chief executive of OceanGate Expeditions.
The trip will involve descending more than two miles down to the ocean bed, taking approximately 90 minutes to reach the historical site.
Scientists estimate the Titanic may only have 15-20 years left before it disappears.
Passengers lucky enough to find Kate Winslet’s ‘Heart of the Ocean’ diamond necklace may be able to recoup the price of the adventure.
