Literature, and it would be Shakespeare. And yet it is something even greater; the only place on earth that is still as it should be.” - Andrew Denton

We travel in uncompromising comfort across the mighty Southern Ocean in a Gulfstream 550. During the five-hour flight, the African night turns to the Antarctic day as we soar over thousands of icebergs on our way to one of the most remote locations on Earth. The runway is overlooked by one of the most magnificent and iconic mountains on the entire continent, named ‘Wolf’s Fang’ by the early Norwegian explorers. After landing on the ancient blue ice, you will be surrounded by massivemonoliths of rock that rise vertically from the glacier.

On the edge of the Great White Continent lies the Schirmacher Oasis, an ice-free area that contains over 100 freshwater lakes. This is the site of a unique camp - Whichaway. Whichaway consists of a collection of hi-tech polar domes set on the shores of a frozen lake and encircled by a magnificent 60-metre (200-foot) icefall. It is warm and comfortable, and the perfect home base for daily activities or when you want to just simply relax. Our camp consists of six heated and state-of-the-art bedroom pods that are designed for two guests to enjoy in comfort. At just over 6m (20ft) in diameter, they are spacious with a writing desk, wash area and toilet.

ULTIMATE ADVENTURES

Your visit to the penguins begins with a 2.5 hour flight to Atka Bay, the site of the first episode of Sir David Attenborough’s ground- breaking documentary Seven Worlds, One Planet. Here you’ll see over 14,000 breeding pairs and their newly-hatched chicks, a spectacle full of noise and energy that is a favourite with wildlife watchers and photographers. There are so few visitors to this colony that the chicks are unafraid of humans and often waddle close by. Mindful of our responsibility to the Antarctic environment and of IAATO guidelines, we keep at least 5m (16.4ft) from the penguins while taking in all the sights and sounds of this rare wildlife spectacle, which remains one of the greatest thrills on Earth!

ADVENTURE

It is a total of 2,400km (1,500mi) fromWhichaway to the South Pole. The first part of the journey is a 5-hour flight to FD83, our expedition camp. Flying 3,000m (10,000ft) above the ice, you view is sensational as we cross the High Polar Plateau. We stop for 1 hour to refuel and then continue another 2 hours to the South Pole itself. There is a true sense of remoteness at this point where, for as far as the eye can see, the white horizon meets the pure blue sky. The South Pole - the very lowest point on the Earth and the holy grail of early explorers. Even though we operate approximately ten flights to the South Pole per year, we have had a 100% success rate in reaching the Pole since the 2017/18 season..
