Antarctica : South Pole Adventure

Nestled within the heartland of Antarctica, Union Glacier’s private camp is a friendly and welcoming base for this tour. Housing up to 80 visitors in expedition style two-person tents that have been specially designed for the polar regions, the camp offers comfort and security in one of the most extreme environments on the planet. With 24 hour daylight during the summer months it is weather conditions rather than clocks that dictate activities and schedules at Union Glacier.

The heated expedition dining tent is truly the heart of the camp and serves as a cosy gathering place for guests to relax and discuss the day’s adventures over a coffee and snack. The cooks prepare three tasty meals a day from diverse menus and are accompanied by a variety of beers and Chilean wines. To minimise environmental impact ‘sponge bath’ washing facilities are utilised or you can always brave a ‘snow bath’ – which is as cold as it sounds!
