As many of you know I went to Antarctica last winter and will be going back this December for a second expedition with the South Pole firmly in my sights! This winter is really exciting because there are two planes flying from Novolazarevskaya Russian Antarctic Base to the South Pole.

I have a business relationship with White Desert, the luxury expedition operator who arranges the trips to the South Pole. There are 6 places left on a trip (25 Nov – 5 Dec) which is an ‘Emperor Penguins & South Pole’ itinerary. This means you get to go see these amazing penguins and go to the South Pole. Additionally, you will do awesome activities like ice caving, hiking and climbing. The cost for this trip is 59,000 Euros a person.

We also have a number of spaces available for the shorter 2 day trip on the 9-12 January 2015 – which might be a bit better suited for those pushed for time and money. These trips cost 25,000 Euros a person.

Each trip starts and ends in Cape Town, South Africa and is one of the most unique expeditions you can do in this world. I cannot wait to go back and achieve my goal of reaching the South Pole. This year I know Prince Harry won’t foil me!

Yes, I am well aware of how expensive the trip is but that is the cost and there aren’t many other alternatives to be honest. If you are seriously interested in coming to Antarctica or the South Pole on these dates or know someone that is, please have them email me: Lee at LeeAbbamonte.com
