Antarctica is spectacular, a wilderness of landscapes reduced to a pure haiku of ice, rock, water, and filled with wildlife. A land of extremes, it is described by a bevy of superlatives and is the driest, coldest continent on Earth. Antarctica is unique and a journey here is like no other. Taking a cruise on an inflatable rubber dinghy among the icebergs, scuba diving in McMurdo Sound, visiting the historic explorers huts in the Ross Sea region for a taste of the Heroic Era is some of the things that you should experience. Eat an Antarctica barbecue, set up on deck or even on the ice; early explorers had to make do with Penguin and seal. Drink an Antarctic Old Fashion, a blend of bourbon, lifesavers sweets and snow; travelers may prefer to stick to adding a little glacier ice to their whiskey.
