EXPLORED THE INTERIOR OF THE GREAT WHITE CONTINENT
Become one of the few. One of the few people ever to have explored the interior of the great white continent at the bottom of the world. It was during a 1,850 km traverse across the continent that a simple, but devastatingly attractive idea occurred to the founders of White Desert. Why didn’t they share their astounding experience with more of their fellow human beings?
Plenty of excellent cruises will take you to the shores of the continent, but if you turn your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Antarctica into a White Desert experience you will be able to explore the interior. And you will feel incredibly small – a mere black speck appearing on the immensity of white. You will stand on high crags, surveying great swirls of endless snow desert, easily imagining that you are the only living person ever to have seen such an awe-striking sight. Interesting? If you’re a true adventurer, the prospect is irresistible.
